The 3ds version of the best Skylanders game doesn't fare much better than Spyro's Adventure. It's still not much fun here.

I enjoyed it and the whole Skylanders gimmick as a kid but playing it again this game is pretty dang bad. The framerate is insanely bad for a 3ds game, worst I've seen. Game is fairly short, gameplay is meh, and the story is lame. I don't regret getting rid of this game and all of my Skylanders, however Eruptor will stay in my heart.

Es espectacular la diferencia que había entre la versión de Wii y la de 3ds. Después de comprarme este sabiendo como era el de Wii me quedé muy decepcionado.

I prefer the first 3DS game over this but i still like it a lot and have a lot of positive memories with it the amusement park levels where my personal favourites

A little dull and very, very easy. Final boss was a disappointment too.

While I think the 3DS version of skylanders spyros adventure is arguably better than the console version due to it being a more traditional 3D platformer action game instead of the weird diablo-like button masher that is the console versions, I cannot say the same thing about the sequel. Skylanders giants on 3DS has a massive framerate issue. The game constantly chugs, making a lot of it hard to actually play. Maybe if you play this on a modded New 3DS with the overclocking on the game might be playable then, but you really shouldn't have to resort to hacks to play a video game with a stable framerate, yanno? All in all, don't get this, get the console version instead. Punch pop fizz is a cool exclusive character tho, gotta give credit where credit is due I bought the game hella after the fact on super clearance just to get the funny guy. As both a portable version of the main game and as a sequel to the previous 3DS game, this game sucks.
