People around the world, aged 18 to 60, were going about their everyday lives when, without warning, a sharp chime rang out in their minds. The next moment, the world spun around them, and they found themselves adrift in a vast ocean, surrounded by endless waves, with nothing but the roar of the sea in their ears.
Everyone had been swept into a seafaring Survival game.

Could they overcome nature's cruelty on these danger-ridden seas? And could they uncover the astonishing secret behind the game?
