Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure will be, regardless of anything else, seen as one of the most nostalgic and defining games of this generation. Being the first real mainstream introduction to the toys to life concept, and forever changing the monetization ideologies of the gaming indusrty which can still be seen today. A game that while with a horribly exploitative method of making its money; a manner that even today can still be seen as excessive, did change things, and is still at the end of the day a quite well put together action game for kids. With a cute story, engaging concept, and quite good exicution.
I am indeed a kid from the 2000s I played Minecraft and Skylanders back in the day, anyway it's a silly brawler great for kids in many ways but I definitely think it's a bit of an insult to Spyro which still has the same kinda feel and charm but barely the same gamedesign. this is like the Raving Rabbids of the Spyro franchise in a way. I don't know how well it holds up because I don't wanna replay it.

Este es uno de esos juegos que me encataron pq funcionaban con juguetes 🙀. Mirar eso me parecía algo increible pq era uno de mis sueños, pasar mis juguetes a un juego.
En ese tiempo solo logre tener las 3 figuras iniciales pero con eso me basto para terminar el juego y divertirme.
Ahora si, el juego al estar basado en figuras abuso mucho de recortar el contenido y encerrarlo en el uso de un skylander esp y elemento. Tambien hizo uso de vender figuras que traían algun pequeño Dlc.
La historia y gameplay estan bien, y a mi parecer pudo ser mejor pero al ser un juego dedicado para niños pues no quisiero darle un gameplay e historia mejor hecho y hecha.

How fucked up is it that I know about Spyro and Crash Bandicoot through this franchise and not because I had those games themselves? Society has fallen, billions must 100% crash 4
Games still Ight though, I actually didn’t grow up with this one I had Giants and everything after, but it’s still decent
Definitely don’t think it would’ve been as popular (or profitable) without the toys to life aspect and the Spyro branding though

after 13 years I finally finished this lmao, so here's what happened I got this for Christmas like a billion years ago I was a child and I totally fell for the marketing, and tbf I played quite a bit like checking my old save my characters were all max level but I never finished the game because the final boss is so hard like their health bar is so big and ur health bar is so small obviously this is to incentivize you to buy more Skylanders because how many Skylanders you have at the end of the day is how many lives you have and even as a kid I understood it that's how blatant it was and I hated it cause i knew my parents would not buy me more figures and this was before I had any spending money at all lol
but regardless I thought u know I am not a child anymore I have played a lot of games my Wii is right there I just gotta hook it up and if my save is still there I just gotta beat that final boss how hard can it be... I beat it on the first try with the 3 basic guys that came with the game and only one of them died yeah... I was leading you on there 💀 I think the credits took longer than it took me to beat it but it was hard and I still think the balance was bs
but nothing beats the feeling of closing that unfinished business you had as a child

This game was entertaining for kids, I remember being really obsessed with the Skylanders back then, and my dad used to buy me some new figurines from time to time, I think that the concept of those figures coming to reality once you put them over the altar was suuuuch a cool one, and the Skylanders were pretty varied and had different movesets and builds.
The gameplay mechanics weren't really amazing though.
Still, I didnt like the fact of having to pay 15€ in order to unlock a new character, even though it was cool to collect them, and i like it even less now, especially knowing my money was going to Activision.

What a time to be a kid at the time with so much variety in gameplay in one single game, truly the 2nd best game in its series and undoubtedly one of the biggest money spenders back then, like a single Skylander was AU$20 back then like what is this, an Amiibo? Even though it had a little unreasonable prices I still am proud to have been able to get this experience in my childhood back then.
