Fortunately, Alex and Ryan weren\'t in school the day Slick took it over. But now, their fellow students are prisoners - including Ryan\'s girlfriend. It\'s up to our two young heroes to battle their way past several dangerous city gangs, then defeat the gang lord to free the students of River City High and restore peace to the panic-stricken populace.
