Story

YOU’RE FRIED IN THE ELECTRIC CHAIR — AND YOUR SOUL ENDS UP IN A PLACE WHERE THE DEAD GAMBLE FOR A SECOND LIFE.

Harlan Hill, a seasoned mercenary, is executed in the electric chair. Certain he was betrayed, he dies without peace.

His soul awakens in the hut of an old shaman, who offers him a game of dice — four rounds for a chance at rebirth and perhaps revenge.

The spirit mocks Harlan, claiming ownership over his soul. Against all odds, Harlan defeats the ghost in every match. Leaving the hut behind, he begins to wander a dreamlike world — a hallucinatory Purgatory where justice is uncertain and fate is decided by numbers, cards, and nerves.
