THE AWAKENING OF ANCIENT HEROES
“Rise and shine, sleepyheads!” That’s what you’re effectively saying when you start this game. Long have these Skylanders been in a state of snooze on Earth, but the time for a wake-up call has arrived. We’re not talking about an alarm clock but the dire need to stop evil forces. The game equips you with more than 45 Skylanders to fight this battle. Each Skylander has its combat style and distinct abilities, giving you the variety you didn’t even know you were missing. From sword-wielding warriors to magic casters, the roster is diverse. The question is, can you harness their powers effectively to thwart the evil plans?
COLLECT ‘EM ALL!
Let’s talk about collection goals! Forget your nephew’s annoying stamp collection; this is the real deal. In “Skylanders Giants,” you can collect over 45 unique Skylanders—each a tiny powerhouse. You’ll rush through various terrains to unlock that next enigmatic character. There are elemental types to consider, abilities to open, and the endless joy of just collecting them. In a world where Pokemon cards are so last century, Skylanders are the newest bragging rights among gamers.
ONLINE MULTIPLAYER SHENANIGANS
You’ve flexed your muscles in single-player mode, but are you ready to take on the world? Literally! The game features an online multiplayer mode that allows you to cooperate with or battle against players from all corners of the Earth.

Team strategies and rivalries can form globally, making it more than a game. It’s worldwide digital diplomacy or destruction—your choice.
IT’S NOT ALL ABOUT BRAWN; BRAINS MATTER TOO
Okay, you’ve got an army of Skylanders and a global arena to showcase them. But wait, there’s more! The game isn’t just a mindless button masher. Strategy and planning are crucial. Knowing which Skylander to deploy, mastering the abilities, and executing the perfect combo could mean the difference between epic victory and shameful defeat. Plus, let’s not forget the puzzles and challenges that require something more than just thumb agility. So, put on your thinking cap along with your battle armor!
