There is a multiplayer mode that has two robots, Atlas and P-Body and two players can play together and pass levels GLaDOS creates for you. Also you can customize your multiplayer character. I rate this game 5 out of 5 because of the gameplay. I hope you liked my review! Don't forget to subscribe and comment!

Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure

Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure is a platform video-game developed by Activision and Toys for Bob, published by Activivsion and released on October 12, 2011. In Skylanders you can choose characters with different elements and skills, there are eight elements, Magic, Water, Tech, Fire, Earth, Life, Air, and Undead. With the different characters with different skills and elements this could change your gameplay as you progress through the story. But the special thing about that you can purchase the different characters and put your new characters on a "portal" which transports your character onto your Tv where you can play Skylanders. I would give Skylanders 4 out of 5 because I think the gameplay could be improved in its gameplay. But overall this game is great!
