Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure is a cross-genre videogame that blends action-adventure, role-playing, and platforming elements. It introduces the innovative use of physical toys that interact with the game when placed on the Portal of Power, a device that reads NFC chips in the figurines. These toys represent in-game characters, allowing players to unlock and control a variety of Skylanders within the game's magical world. The game's objective is to defeat the evil Portal Master Kaos and save the Skylands with the help of Spyro the Dragon and a diverse cast of characters.
