They call themselves "The Goonies." The secret caves. The old lighthouse. The lost map. The treacherous traps. The hidden adventure. And Sloth… Join the adventure.
Young teen Mikey Walsh and his friends set off on a quest to find Pirate One-Eyed Willie's treasure in hopes of saving their homes from demolition. However, on their quest to find the treasure, they run into a family of recently escaped criminals, determined to capture the kids and reach the treasure first.
