    Skylanders Imaginators feels tired. A game that either needs a significant break or possible retirement, it's difficult to recommend to anyone but younger gamers - and parents would probably prefer to avoid it due to the additional character cost. There are plenty of other games more worthy of your cash, and if you desperately must have this game, buy it on another system where the starter pack will be cheaper.

    Decent with the cool premise of creating your characters, but is not well polished and did not have the magic that made the other gamesDecent with the cool premise of creating your characters, but is not well polished and did not have the magic that made the other games special, especiallly because you cant use the portal in the Switch version, the main point that the other games were based on, and made up for the kinda shallow gameplay, and makes the figures just plastic dlc that you use once and throw in a bin. Sad. The Switch version is also missing the racing portion, that other consoles had. This last entry is especially bad, and the story is lacking. If your looking for a fun Skylanders experience, go play Skylanders Giant on Wii.
