The Red Eyes have taken over the Earth. Can Casey use her new powers to lead the resistance? The third in an exciting and original sci-fi adventure trilogy for the gaming generation.
Catapulted forward four years, Casey and her teammates have landed on a very different Earth from the one they left only a few days before. The Red Eye aliens have taken over, leaving carnage in their wake as they ruthlessly search for the key to intergalactic domination. And they seem to have all the adults – and Casey’s younger brother Pete – in their thrall. Determined to free their families and stop the Red Eyes from discovering the final piece in the puzzle, the gamers team up with a rag-tag bunch of teenagers who call themselves the Resistance. Casey still has the powers conferred on her by the wise and ancient Squids. But will it be enough?
