Session fun rating: 7/10
It's been a while since we played this one, but as usual, Sunday morning is daddy/daughter video game time. We flew towards Kaos' fortress to save our friend. To get there, we had to destroy some sheepshooters, which are giant sheep canons...
I used Hex, the grim Skylander, throughout the entire level. She's got some awesome skills, but she can be sometimes hard to use because she's quite slow and doesn't have that much health. For example, she can put up a wall of spiked skulls that act as a shield. She also has a rapid fire ranged attack, but it doesn't deal much damage. Her most powerful attack is a bit like artillery. It takes a long time to charge up, but it hits like a fucking truck.
When we reached the end of the level, we were confronted by Kaos' mother, a powerful portal master. I had to battle a series of increasingly difficult enemies, then a boss that had lots of hit points. At some points in the battle, the mother hid inside MY portal! To find her, we had to take off the toy from the portal, which my daughter found absolutely hilarious. That's when Skylanders is at it's best, when it makes the plastic toys relevant to the gameplay. We captured the mother and trapped her inside a large mirror. Kaos is the only one left now, so I'm pretty sure we're headed towards the final level of the game.
