''[[LEGO Rock Raiders]]'' was a 1999 [[LEGO]] [[LEGO Themes|theme]] based around [[Asteroid Miners|mining on an alien planet]] for [[Power Crystal|Power Crystals]], sporting fifteen sets featuring mining vehicles, other craft, minifigure packs, and a large base set. What it is best remembered for, though, is its two very different tie-in games, one for the PC and one for the [[PlayStation]]. Accompanying the games and toys were nine mini-comics, several other comic appearances in LEGO-related magazines, and three young reader books.
The L.M.S. Explorer, a [[Cool Starship]] tasked with observing and exploring uncharted planets, was damaged by an asteroid field and caught by a wormhole on its voyage back to Earth, and was warped into another galaxy and left crippled and low on fuel. The ship's scanners were still operational, and picked up a nearby planet in the solar system, dubbed Planet U, that was rich in [[Green Rocks|Energy Crystals]] which could be used to restore powerto the L.M.S. Explorer and get them back to the Milky Way. However, Planet U proved to be [[Death World|a hostile place]] with high volcanic activity, frequent cave-ins, little breathable air, and populated with hostile wildlife, including the powerful Rock Monsters, [[Phlebotinum Muncher|whose diet consists solely of]] the Energy Crystals that the L.M.S. Explorer so dearly needs.
