Game Informer noted Toys for Bob's extra time in developing the game, giving it an 8.75. "Giving Toys for Bob an extra year to work on this sequel paid off, not just with the concept of villains partnering with heroes, but the world they inhabit feeling more alive."

The game itself doesn't really compare to Imaginators in quality. Especially since the Switch has better resolution for Imaginators than the PS3 version does (yes, I own two copies of Imaginators). New Cast of Characters - A brand new group of Skylanders, known as Trap Masters, lead the charge armed with their oversized crystal weapons in the fight against the most wanted villains and returning nemesis Kaos.

Start playing this game now. There are console versions with the same storylines. However, if you are a user of Nintendo 3DS, you may have to watch out for its different edition.Toys to Life, Life to Toys – Players experience an exciting new level of Skylanders innovation through the Traptanium Portal, a new ring of magical energy which reverses the magic of the toys to life category by letting players bring digital characters into the physical world.

The problem is that instead of a very neatly organized level system, whereby using a character of one element from the current game's line-up of Skylanders (in this case, Imaginators and their Sensei figures) gives you access to their element's level if you didn't already have it, Trap Team does something kind of stupid and requires you to constantly swap out characters to access small, meaningless (so far) areas to grab some coins and a hat.

While it is true that there might be some other areas it can explore, there are things that you would still love about it. If you are a beginner, it should not be impossible for you to love this game.
