Well I guess it's about I wrote a review about a console Game, so here's:
Game Review
Okay, Okay, OK! I know that skylanders is considered a game for seven year-olds and all but I have to admit, this game is pretty awesome! I'm only on Chapter 7 in this game and I already love it! Previously I played Skylanders Giants, I actually haven't finished that yet as my brothers been hogging the Xbox >.>
But seriously, this game is great!
I suppose I should give you a summary of the entire story of the game series so far. It all starts of when the evil lord Kaos (Pronounced as Chaos) send the Skylanders, who are the protectors of the skylands, to earth where they turn into toys. (and also somehow get put in packaging, placed in stores and are duplicated over 3 thousand times.) And then when we, the humans or as the skylanders call us, the portal masters, buy them with the game and the portal we help the skylanders defeat lord Kaos, it's basicly the same through most of the games but with a couple of details change, sometimes there big impact on the plot other times there's not. Anyway let's skip a couple of games and head straight to the latest one, Trap Team. The name kinda gives it away, theres a team that traps bad guys.
I really like this story line and pretty sure others would do too, but I find that there's a lot of repetition, which is pretty normal for a game like this, but overtime it does start to get a little boring with the same evil guy and pretty much the same plot.
So now that we've got the main story out of the way, let's focus on the actual game.
The game-play is pretty good and recently they've added the jump (by pressing A) button which makes it much better and closer to other games that are similar to slanderers. Idk why, but just having the Jump button makes a game feel more natural. I also like the way you need to save up coins to buy upgrades for your attacks. I think this allows you to sort of work harder and spend a little more time collecting coins allowing yourself to improve in the overall game.
Now I'm gonna take a look at this from a more 'business' stand point.
They way they've used 'Bringing toys to life' is very smart. It's an ideal way to make money, to get your customers to buy these skylander figures in order to complete certain levels in a game. Although it maybe a pain for parents at times, it's a pretty smart trick to use whilst devolving a game.
So it was a little short, but this concludes my review for skylander's trap team!
