The game is solid all around. Gameplay is still solid, and there are some really fun new Skylanders introduced in this game such as Crash, Cortex, Painyata and the creation of making your own Skylanders is novel enough, but I can't help but feel that the game still lags behind almost every other Skylanders game. The story feels way shorter than all the other games, not to mention that they also add a very unnecessary and tedious cake quest to the middle of the game that's just a plain unfun slog to trudge through. This game also feels like the most aggressive in its push to get you to buy more add-ons for the game such as other Skylander sensei's, creation crystals, playsets, etc. Not the fault of Toys for Bob. They can't be helped that they work for one of the shittiest and abusive companies out there. I'd say the game is worth playing if you're a Skylanders fan already, but if you are just getting into the game, I'd probably recommend playing something like Giants or Superchargers instead.
