In the sprawling, unforgiving landscape of the city, known as the Concrete Maze, a group of lifelong friends finds their solidarity shattered by a phantom tormentor dubbed 'The Puppeteer.' This unseen antagonist masterfully exploits each friend's deepest phobias—Liam's fear of failure, Maya's terror of abandonment, Noah's dread of helplessness, Chloe's suffocating claustrophobia, and Ethan's fear of invisibility. As paranoia infects their relationships and trust crumbles, they are ensnared in a brutal psychological game. Staged incidents designed to isolate them and turn them against one another force them to confront their suppressed inner demons. One character wrestles with intense guilt over a past transgression, heightening their susceptibility, while the others desperately scour the city's hidden corners for any trace of their tormentor's identity and motive.
