What is Escape From Planet Alcatraz - The Crushing Crystals about?
Zak Nine and Erro follow a mysterious map across the scorching Plateau of Leng on Planet Alcatraz. At first, the endless desert seems quiet, apart from the occasional giant scorpion. Then the ground erupts around them. Huge rocky walls rise from the sand, grinding together to create twisting passageways and stone cages. Trapped in a deadly maze, the boys must think quickly and work together to escape before the crushing crystals close in and leave them imprisoned for ever.
