Then one time Hefty decides to try out the Disc Battle game in Game Wand Arcade...and suddenly he gets transported into a world where the Disc Battle game is for real, being played by beings called Gametronians on a world called Gametron, which is being menaced by an evil overlord named Sarkamel and his game warrior minions.
