Jordan and friends discover their neighborhood transforms after dark into a tower-defense arena. They must build barricades, design defensive structures, and survive waves of Null creatures to protect a mysterious Core hidden beneath their block. As other neighborhoods reveal their own Cores and Sentinel teams, the kids learn the Cores are networked — and the Null creatures come from a collapsed parallel reality trying to overwrite theirs.
