The technique:
The portal has been delivered quickly and easily connected with the iPad via Bluetooth and the included controller, although it seems little wertig, carries out his task without problems. Really well resolved is the ability to sink the controller for transport in the portal.
The accompanying Skylander, the traps and the portal are designed detailed and complicated, only the controller acts here again somewhat pale
Unfortunately, you can not use the controller with other games on the iPad because it is coupled only in connection with the portal.
Playing on a large TV can be implemented easily via AirPlay.
The Game:
Graphically and acoustically the game on the iPad Air is far ahead! The story is about and is told very well for smaller Skylander via voice and text output. The many hidden worlds and the different Skylander and their skills bring high long-term motivation and replayability with it.
The USK 6 is justified in any event, although the / one or the other kind-hearted six-year gamblers or risk-taker is expected from time to time be a little overwhelmed because for example some boss fights are staged dramatic ...
Co-op:
Unfortunately, both on the website, but especially in the enclosed manual hardly or not at all on the possible co-op received, only that it works could be found by Web search out so I ordered a (damn expensive) SteelSeries stratus and see because after the portal was first paired and then the stratus, the second player could be selected easily. If one both Skylander on the Portal, the figures without split screen can be controlled when too far away from each other, a band is seen and felt, which is the maximum distance of pawns to all parents who are their for the game behavior I would be interested in Kids definitely recommend a second controller! Couple makes the adventure even more fun ;-)
Criticisms: or you should know, and thus cope ^^!
#A Expensive business!
The starter kit in combination with the many figures and plumping the game the most expensive ever be ;-)
#Batterieverbrauch Is high!
Here should the purchase of batteries (5 AAA are needed) to be given, that is worthwhile in any case,
#Speicherfresser
With 6GB on the iPad you have to expect!
The conclusion:
The purchase was worth it definitely! In combination with a second controller, several Skylandern and traps (beautiful gift ideas for grandmothers, aunts and Co ;-)) you have here a game that promises fun for a long time.
