Simon was a game developer in his last life. He wasted too much time behind his computer and neglected his family, friends and the joy in life. As a consequence he grew old lonely and desolate. At the end of his life nothing of value was left to him.

Somehow he got a second chance in life and was reborn in the United States. But not the United States he was familiar with, but the United States in the year 1952.
How would he deal with his new family, new environment and a life without personal computers or game consoles?
