"Welcome to the ZETTAMALL®, the universe's greatest shopping experience!" William Tombaugh's job sucks. It sucks even more when he's abducted by aliens and gets a dubiously-marketable fast food mascot grafted to his arm. Will and his friends have been taken by the ZETTAMALL, an unhinged space mall where making numbers go up is everything. The people brought here are trapped in an endless cycle of loot crates, corporate altars, and brand-sponsored boss battles. If they stop, they'll be lucky if Zeddie the customer service AI only kills them. Will would rather skate away from his responsibilities than fight, but if he wants to survive, he'll have to step up. Can he and his friends find a way home, or is death the only way to clock out? ZETTAMALL®: Save to Live. Live to Save.
