About

The ever powerful Kaos has opened a rift into a mysterious world known as the Second Dimension. In this realm, he has dispatched the most infamous villains from Skylands in an attempt to finally destroy the Skylanders. Standard rules and conventional forms of battle do not apply in this dimension, so the Skylanders must use new powers, abilities, and tactics to defeat the villains and ultimately stop Kaos! With all of its Elemental Realms captured, a new breed of hero is needed to lead the Skylanders and save the Second Dimension from being conquered by Kaos. It’s up to you to become a champion Battlecaster by collecting battle cards, building the ultimate team, and bringing them to life in epic battles never before seen!

    The solid fundamentals and mechanics of Skylanders Battlecast make for a highly enjoyable game. The breadth of teams and decks that can be made means there is plenty of viability in doing well without spending a ton of money. The only real let downs are the technical problems currently being experienced, but as this is a very new release they may soon be ironed out. With it being free, too, there's nothing to lose in giving this a shot!

    Skylanders Battlecast is an interesting take on the genre and one that isn’t afraid to play around with its conventions. The fact that characters are rendered in 3D adds a visual flair that just isn’t there in most card games. Needless to say, this isn’t cheap spinoff rushed out of the door – Activision has plans for Battlecast in the future and so far it’s managed to create a solid, if imperfect, foundation for them to build on.

    It might not suck you in like Hearthstone, and the community playing online might not be as massive, but there's still plenty here to waste some time with. A bright and surprisingly deep card game that'll keep you going for a good long while.

    La richesse de l’univers des Skylanders était idéale pour un jeu de cartes et Activision n’a pas manqué le coche. Les combats en trois contre trois de Skylanders Battlecast se révèlent tout aussi dynamiques que stratégiques et rien n’est jamais joué d'avance. Si l’on parvient facilement à se constituer un deck efficace grâce aux quelques cartes offertes tous les jours, il faudra tout de même beaucoup de temps ou d’argent afin de réunir les 300 disponibles.

    Skylanders Battlecast è un gioco di carte semplice e pensato per un pubblico giovane che può anche divertire i giocatori più adulti. La casualità del mana rende le partite un po' imprevedibili e l'impossibilità di giocare con le carte "vere" non sono il massimo, ma nel complesso ci troviamo di fronte a un gioco molto carino e che i più piccoli adoreranno.

    Skylanders Battlecast biedt dus meer dan Hearthstone door de toevoeging van fysieke kaarten. Het is een vermakelijke game die je binnen een paar potjes knokken naar binnen zuigt. Er is genoeg content in de vorm van de vele kaarten en in-game aankopen.
