Hacker has discovered an army of awesome creatures he can use to rule cyberspace, but they are carved in stone on the walls of the Pyramid of Jimaya. To bring the animals to life, he must steal the Sphere of Being, a magical orb closely guarded by three ghosts (Hacker’s worst nightmare). How can he distract them so he can steal the Sphere? Opportunity knocks when he tricks Jules, recently hired as tour guide, into pushing the wrong button and falling, along with the kids and Creech, into an underground arena from which there is no escape! Confronted by the Jam Master, the guardian of the pyramid, and the Pyramid’s three ghosts, the kids are told they can go free if they can overcome the ghosts in a game of Jimaya Jam. The game is like basketball except for a few small quirks: Dribbling is not allowed, since the balls will break. If a player is in possession with the ball in their hands, they cannot move. They can either try to score a basket or pass the ball to someone else. Coach Jackie struggles with a game plan until the kids realize that diagramming her plays makes it a whole lot easier to follow them. Down to their last ball, stopping Hacker rests on their ability to diagram and execute the right play.

Trivia[]

The Hacker lets out a big "NO!" when the real animals turn back into stone.
After the gang is gone from leaving the pyramid, the Jam Master's mouth opens and the Sym-Ball that the Hacker touched, which used to be green, changes back to orange as its original color, sliding out.
The dark red Sym-Balls break when they hit the ground.
Delete shuts his eyes tight when the ghosts chase him, Buzz, and the Hacker.
When the ghosts chase the Hacker and his henchmen, Buzz screams for a long time.
The ghosts chase Buzz and the Hacker who look at them and Delete who faces away from them.
