Captain N: The Game Master: Pursuit of the Magic Hoop
Overview
Hoop-De-Doo-Dah-Day, the one day of the year when everyone has a shot at their dearest wish, is celebrated on Hoopland. Kevin, Lana, and Duke arrive on Hoopland to try and wish King Charles home. Kevin, Lana, and Duke meet Larry Bird. Hoopless, a young boy who is the inventor of everything on Hoopland, is too short to make a shot at getting a wish, so he has his robot, Rebound, make the shot for him. Rebound gets to make a wish, but, instead of wishing Hoopless tall, he accidentally wishes himself the tallest. He hits his head, which messes up his programming, and becomes evil. Larry, Kevin, Lana, Hoopless, and Duke climb Hoop Mountain, passing a series of challenges by Clockman, Guardian of the Magic Hoop, along the way. Lana wins a wish. However, instead of wishing her father back home, she wishes Rebound back to normal, and everybody's happy.
