Danny twists the key of an old science fiction game. The game unleashes
a localized meteor shower and wrenches Danny's house into orbit around
a distant ringed planet. Besides Danny, his brother Walter and sister
Lisa have to go along. Soon a defective robot, a rangy astronaut, and
an alien spaceship enter the picture. The only way the kids can return
their house to its proper space-time coordinates is to finish the game,
but before they can finish, the game board falls into the hands of some
rather nasty, carnivorous lizards.
