New Sonora colonist Oliver Lewis runs the family ranch with his sister and aging agribots, eagerly awaiting the full transfer gate opening to reconnect with Earth. But Earth’s government hires Apex Industries for an “eviction action” to wipe out all life on the planet for a reboot, turning it into a pay‑to‑play game where bored Earthers design and remotely pilot war machines. Dubbed Operation Bounce House, it lets gamers annihilate settlers for profit.
