MAPPAThe year is 2052âan era of unprecedented peace and prosperity prevails across the globe. The reason for this: mankind has been freed from sickness and pain. Nobel Prize winning neuroscientist Dr. Skinner has developed a miracle cure-all drug with no apparent drawbacks called Hapuna. Hapuna soon becomes ubiquitous⊠and essential. However, soon after Hapuna is officially introduced, Dr. Skinner vanishes.

As a response to this threat, a special task force of five agents is gathered from across the world to save humanity from Skinnerâs plan. This group is called âLazarus.â Can they find Skinner and develop a vaccine before time runs out?
