DESCRIPTION

In LEGO Rock Raiders, you lead and control a team of highly trained engineers as they explore three underground worlds consisting of lava, ice and rock. Your objective is to mine tunnels and collect energy crystals and LEGO ore to be used to power and build new machinery. Obstacles and dangers lurk around every corner, though, as the precious materials are guarded by several indigenous creatures including Rock, Lava and Ice monsters, Slimy Slugs, bats and spiders.

Your crew of five includes Bandit (navigator and sailor), Docs (geologist), Jet (pilot), Sparks (mechanic) and Axle (machinery operator). To keep the team safe, you need to establish and maintain a Rock Raiders Headquarters and defend it from attack from the menacing denizens of the underground. To accomplish the mission, you control a fleet of mining vehicles and machines (hover scout, digger, transport truck, rapid rider, laser cutter, tunnel scout, loader dozer, granite grinder, chrome crusher and cargo carrier) and various tools (drill, shovel, hammer, spanner, laser beam, pusher beam, dynamite and freezer beam).

LEGO Rock Raiders is designed for building block enthusiasts ages eight and up, features a point-and-click interface and requires a 3D accelerator. Adjustable options include game speed, music volume, sound effects volume, brightness, help menus and graphic displays. ~ Michael L. House, All Game Guide
