What? My "Information Club" is Actually an All-Knowing Secret Society?
In the burning heat of Jakarta, Arlen is a broke car wash employee with one last hope, his unpublished novel, The Frozen Era. Knowing that nobody reads books anymore, he decides to sell "experience".
He makes an Alternate Reality Game (ARG), hiding impossible puzzles across the website, application, and even real life place on another city, to find the smartest readers for his story about a tropical apocalypse.
He expected to find bored gamers, employee, or maybe some broke people like him. Instead, he recruited a group of dangerous strangers.
These elite few cracked his codes and entered his secret chat room. They are convinced that Arlen,
Known to them only as "The Architect", is not a fiction writer, but a whistleblower leaking secret information from the future, about the end of the world.
Then, the terrifying coincidence begins.
Whatever Arlen writes in the chat, suddenly all his followers find a way to justify the reality to it. To Arlen, it is just incredible luck for his marketing campaign. But while he sits in his apartment celebrating his "success," his followers are emptying their bank accounts, building bunkers, and preparing for the end of the world.
The heat is a lie. The ice is coming. And the only person who thinks it’s all fake... is the one who wrote the script.
