Swap Force is by far the best Skylanders game yet.
The gameplay is above the last two games; the characters are able to jump now, which is great. However, the hardest part is collecting the entire list of exclusive characters. Also, the landscapes and levels are more developed and more three-dimensional. The addition of characters being able to swap body parts makes the game very interesting, as the player is able to do so much more.
I hope that if there is another Skylanders game, it is just as interesting as this outing. Details Edit. Release date October 13, United States. United States. Official Site.

The story begins with Master Eon introducing the player to the world of Skylands as well as its protectors, the Skylanders.
The veteran Portal Master then reveals the backstory of a special group of Skylanders known as the SWAP Force, who protected the Cloudbreak Islands and its magical volcano that regenerates the magic in all of Skylands every one hundred years. During an epic battle against a swarm of Fire Vipers summoned by a dark figure, the SWAP Force were caught in the eruption of the magic volcano, which granted them the ability to swap halves, but in the process banished them to Earth.
In the present, Flynn is on vacation at the Cloudbreak Islands to see its next one hundredth eruption. He is encountered by Tessa , a fox girl riding on a large bird named Whiskers , and thrust into another adventure when Kaos ordered a group of Greebles to attack Tessa's village before the volcano celebration The heroes manage to take refuge in Woodburrow , but when they arrive, Rufus informs them that the Chieftess has been kidnapped by Evilized Greebles and held in Cascade Glade with the Gillman and Yeti Councillors.
Although the Skylanders were able to rescue them, Kaos managed to know the location of the Ancient Elementals. His plan was to use Petrified Darkness , a malignant crystal that turns anyone into an evil version of themselves, to evilize any one of the elementals.
With an evilized elemental performing the ancient ritual, the volcano itself would become evilized and spread darkness throughout Skylands.
As Flynn receives a celebration for his heroic efforts in his home of Boom Town with his friends, it is attacked by Count Moneybone and his clockwork army. Sarcastically claiming the celebration as his, he takes a few "parting gifts", stealing Flynn's golden statue and turning Cali into an undead being before taking her as well.
Stopped by the army, Flynn and Hugo are unable to take chase before they escape through a coffin gate, and after the Skylanders ' arrival through the Sky Docks , need to study the newfound clockwork robots to discover Moneybone's whereabouts. Their quest takes them to the Ancient Woods to cut his mana fuel sources before the forest is drained of its magic, to the Crystal Caverns to stop the mining of power crystals by a mechanical worm minion, and the Coral Head Cove to uncover the robot factory assembling the clockwork army.
However, Moneybone was still at large, and desperate to find his true hideout, the group seeks out the Water Dragon in Samurai Islands for an answer, agreeing to save nearby villages from lava flows to obtain the Skeleton Key , that opens any door on Skylands. Opening the coffin gate and being dragged to the Undead Fiesta , they discover Moneybone's villa overlooking a spooky village where they discover his plan to use an Immortalizer Ray and turn all of Skylands into zombies, and take chase after him in his Clockwork Castle.
After a climatic battle in his large vault of gold and office, his chest gear, that controlled all of his machines, was destroyed, ruining his plans and removing the spell cast on Cali.
Skylanders: Swap Force started out as an original Vicarious Visions concept about how the developers could build on the greatness of Skylanders - playing together, building your collection, and the value of the collection itself. Also, what's fun from a toy standpoint: not just what's better on the video game side, but what makes for an interesting play pattern on the toy side? Less than a year after having two major projects cancelled, the team at Vicarious Visions didn't quite know what they were going to do in the third main entry in the Skylanders franchise.
The idea of taking apart different characters and recombining them to create something unique. This idea was known as Skylanders: ShapeShifters with the main gimmick having Skylanders take on different forms, even forms that resemble their allies. The mix-and-match concept from Skylanders: ShapeShifters , later becoming Swap Force' s main gimmick, was in its infancy at that point.
Still, when Activision's executives visited, the idea was approved. From there, the studio was off to the races to make the magic come to life. It was crude, but effective at laying the base for how magnets would later bring it to fruition. We knew we had something magical but we just weren't making that connection between the hardware and the software at that point. Then Engineer Brent Gibson made what later became known as the "Frankenlander".
It was the eureka moment of the entire project. The proof of concept that the Swap Force concept could actually work. And it happened before the first Skylanders game even hit stores. Gibson was then instructed to make a few more of these beasts so they could use them as the basis for the new characters.
No longer using his own home as the workshop, he worked in the New York studio's own facilities. While cutting Skylanders into pieces for the good of the Cloudbreak Islands, Gibson managed to slice his hand open. Blood pooling in his hand, he tried to cover it up, until someone discovered him and then lead him to a garbage to dump his handful of blood and after that, the hospital. Gnarly scar in hand, Gibson was one of the key catalysts driving Swap Force from theory to reality.
Skylanders: Swap Force received mostly positive reviews. There are fantastic new characters, a funny story, and a complete disregard for the boring rules that say robots and wizards shouldn't be part of the same world.
