The story follows a futuristic theme park, called Westworld, that is full of humanistic robots, or hosts. People can pay to enter this world, and interact in whichever way they choose.

The hosts are controlled, and updated, by the programmers the oversee Westworld, but they seem to be gaining more conciousness with each and every update. As the programmers try to make them more life-like, they become more human.
