SYNOPSIS: In Love and Warcraft—a delightful intersection of humor, love and subculture—offers a fresh comedic look at the collision between online gaming and In Real Life (IRL) relationships. Evie Malone is a gamer girl, college senior and confirmed virgin who has it all figured out. Not only does she command a top-ranked guild in World of Warcraft with her online boyfriend, she also makes a little cash on the side writing love letters for people who've screwed things up with their IRL partners. Love is like Warcraft, after all. It's all about strategies, game plans, and not taking stupid risks... or is it?
