About the Game
Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure is an entry in the Spyro the Dragon universe and a departure from the previous games as it is tied to a new peripheral and a line of action figure toys. It is part of a new subseries in the franchise called Skylanders . To play the game players must connect the Portal of Power peripheral included with the game to the device the game is played on. There are over 35 characters in total, but these can only be unlocked by buying additional packs that include the action figure toys.
Gameplay & Core Systems
Each character has two primary attacks, both of which can be upgraded by using coins collected in the game. Experience also leads to new abilities, also unlocked by discovering certain hats, and eventually a tertiary attack. Furthermore, the toys are cross-platform; all of the information saved onto a toy can be played on any device that runs the game. When a character dies, the level needs to be restarted, a new character needs to be introduced, or players have to wait about twenty minutes before it is revived. A second player can join the game to play cooperatively by placing an additional toy on the Portal of Power.
Standout Features
- A major part of the experience is the main adventure, which can be played with a single player or co-op.
- Skylanders: In addition, Skylanders features a player-versus-player mode, where players can battle against each other in arenas filled with traps, weapons, and obstacles.
