    Skylanders: Trap Team offers a varied experience with just the right amount of depth in the gameplay to appeal to younger kids. Grown-ups will probably get more out of the experience in the company of kids. But then they will find themselves having so much fun that they may even forget how crazy expensive the game is.

    Skylanders Trap Team offers a nice new feature with its monsters' capture possibilities. Kids will love it, even if it's not as interesting as last year's SWAP figures in terms of gameplay... and beware : you'll have to buy all the new Trap Team figures and all the new traps to finish everything. That could easily become a huge trap for your money.

    Let down by money-grabbing that manifests in entirely unsubtle nudges towards buying new characters. [Dec 2014, p.79]

    Another solid entry for Skylanders, but the upfront price is only a fraction of what you'll need to play to see all it has to offer. [Issue#118, p.70]

    I own all the Skylanders Games and I also own every Skylander. So needless to say I love this game. It is a game that harkens back to oldI own all the Skylanders Games and I also own every Skylander. So needless to say I love this game. It is a game that harkens back to old school gaming. When me and my friends would sit around and play Nintendo for hours just having Fun.

    This game is not for everyone I will add because even though you can play and have fun with just the starter pack. This game was made to require more than just the starter pack to do everything or go everywhere in the game both Figure wise and Trap Wise.

    That being said if you Owned a Trap Master of Each Element and a Trap of Each Element , and the 2 Adventure packs then you could get everything out of the game.

    The best in the series though by far.

Loads ofThe fourth installment in the skylanders franchise was truly a gem. It looks like giants mixed with swap force and I am a big fan. Loads of mechanics, great gameplay, great level design and a fantastic roster. I love the post game content as well. The skylanders were a bit expensive as my wallet is still on life support but most were worth it. My biggest issue is that the game has a painful abundance of glitches. If I weren't an avid skylander fan I would probably find them more annoying but I am and I don't. Arguably the best level layouts in the series. Top marks. Full Review »
