Skylander has become my favorite video game ever. I love how each character has so many powers and you can decide to upgrade each characters specific abilities. For instance each character has a melee attack and a ranged attack. You can decide to improve your ranged attack and game play goes one way or you can do your melee attack and game play is completely different.
My favorite character is Drobot. What is more awesome than a robot dragon. He can fly, shoot buzzsaws and has laser eyes. I’m working on getting him even more upgraded by doing the Heroic Challenges, too. Each character can perform 32 different Heroic Challenges and improve their speed, critical hits, and armor. I should have enough time to get them all fully upgraded before Skylanders: Giants comes out this fall. At Toy Fair 2012 Activision announced this new game and I am so excited to play it.
I firest leanred about Skylanders Spyro’s Adventure at the Time to Play Holiday Showcase that I went to last month. I didn’t get to play and that is probably a good thing because I would have spent my entire time there playing this game. I was sent a copy of Skylanders Spyro’s Adventure for the Wii. It arrived today and I’ve spent about 4 hours playing the game, playing online and leveling up “my” character, Trigger Happy. I haven’t had this much fun playing a Wii game in a very long time. In fact, I haven’t played my Wii in months. I unpacked it only a couple of weeks ago so that Eva could play a kids game. Well, I’ll probably be playing a lot more now because of Skylanders.
Skylanders is a game from Activision that brings a whole new way to play to video games. It is one of the most innovative and fun games I have ever played. The game comes with a Portal of Power upon which you place your Skylanders. Skylanders are protectors of Skylands who were banished to Earth by Kaos. On Earth the Skylanders are small plastic statues but when placed on the Portal of Power they are transported back to Skylands. Sounds a bit corny but it is freaking awesome when you see it in action. Continue reading Hours of Fun Playing Skylanders Spyro’s Adventure→
