Overview

Ben, Toby, and Jonathan are playing a board game. When Ben cheats he is transported to the Land of the Dotties. Sad and alone, he befriends Rock and his nephew Chip. They discover that Ben can return home only if he lights up the Five Magic Stones. The Rhythmic Dice, the Joker, the Master Crossword and Jig saw each present Ben with a puzzling test which he must solve within a time limit set by the King. Opposed by master cheats Flim Flam and Hokum, Ben lights four of the stones and then learns that Rock is in trouble. If he helps Rock he may run out of time in the final test and may never get home - unless the spirit of the Games is heard.
