The House Theatre of Chicago: The Last Defender

Audiences will become the heroes of the story in The Defenders' underground headquarters. The United States and The Soviet Union are still mired in the Cold War. We've deployed artificial intelligence alongside 8 bit arcade-style computer technologies to control our nuclear weapons. Players will navigate their own paranoia, as well as the stresses of Mutually Assured Destruction to do the job of The Defenders. Everyone will work as a team to gather information, solve puzzles, and make increasingly difficult decisions in real time. All to finally complete The Defenders' final mission and save the world.
