Skylanders SWAP Force

Skylanders SWAP Force is a platforming adventure, the third main title in the Skylanders series, and a sequel to the 2011 Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure. Similar to previous installments, players use real-life action figures which are transformed into playable characters through use of the Portal. The game introduces the new Portal of Power which allows for swappable characters, with sixteen new characters that can be separated by their top and bottom, allowing for a total of 256 combinations.

For generations, the SWAP Force protected the volcano which restores the Skylands' magic. However, after being caught in an eruption following a massive battle, the SWAP Force were broken apart and hurled to the Earth. Yet their new ability to swap powers may be the key to saving Skylands.

Skylanders SWAP Force received positive reviews with an average score of 83%, praised for its environment, colorful characters, diverse enemies, and overall fun, while criticized for its camera angles and high-priced figures necessary in unlocking extra content.

Like most titles in the series, the game is not particularly difficult, and is easier depending on how many Skylanders you have. The main reason for the 2-star difficulty rating is for the time involved, as you will need to perform four full playthroughs, one of which on Nightmare difficulty which can be challenging at parts - especially if you are only using the Starter Pack. The online trophy is easy to unlock and does not require any assistance from other players.

Expect roughly around 40 hours for the Platinum.

NOTE: The trophies on the PS4 have a separate list from those on the PS3.

ALSO NOTE: You will need a second controller for three trophies.

You will need to perform four full playthroughs on your road to the Platinum.

The first is simply playing through and completing the game in order to unlock Nightmare mode. During your first playthrough, you can play on any mode of your choosing. If you're new to the Skylanders series, you may which to start on Easy or Medium. But keep in mind that you'll later need to play on Nightmare - so if you wish to avoid a shock and do a little preparation, you may want to start on Hard. It's up to you.

During your first playthrough, you will automatically unlock a ton of story-related trophies. There are are few miscellaneous ones you can unlock now, if you wish. Be sure to check out the Skylanders SWAP Force trophy guide links under our Links tab on more details.

Once you've finished your first playthrough, you will have unlocked Nightmare mode. Now, you have three playthroughs left to do. One on Nightmare mode, another on Score mode, and another for Time Attack.

If you wish to progress from easier to more difficult, we recommend doing the Time Attack next. Here, you'll need to speed run through the levels, avoiding combat whenever possible. Earning a 3-star rating in all 17 Time Attack levels will net you four trophies, including the Fastest One Around trophy.

Next are the Score mode levels, where you'll need to rack up your score by avoiding taking hits. Having a friend to play with will make this quite easy. Completing all 17 Score mode levels will unlock another four trophies, including the Winning Streak trophy.

Finally, it's time for your Nightmare mode playthrough. With all your experience in the game up to this point, Nightmare mode shouldn't prove to be too difficult, with only a few tricky areas here and there. Also, the difficulty-related trophies are stackable, so if you didn't play on Hard earlier, you'll unlock that trophy after completing Nightmare mode, along with the Knights Of Nightmares trophy.

Finally, if you happened to miss anything, now's the time to mop-up. Again, check out the Skylanders SWAP Force trophy guide links under our Links tab to see what you may still be missing and their requirements.

Skylanders SuperChargers Trophy Guide PS4

Editorial Team

Skylanders SuperChargers Trophy Guide. Difficulty: **  An action-platformer with RPG and driving elements, where Skylander figures are brought to life. The Platinum is fairly average in terms of both difficulty and time required.

Skylanders: SuperChargers

Skylanders: SuperChargers is an action platformer with RPG and driving elements. Like its predecessors, the game is a "toy-to-life" where players place toy figures on the Portal of Power which allows them to be playable characters in-game. The newly introduced vehicles are diviced into land, sea, and sky vehicles.

The evil Kaos has unleashed the Doomstation of Ultimate Doomstruction, and only a special team can stop it. The SuperChargers have taken to the land, sea, and air, to stop Kaos' evil plan.

Skylanders: SuperChargers received positive reviews with an average score of 81%, praised for its level designs, added vehicle driving element, and overall fun.

The game is fairly average in terms of both difficulty and time required. At least one playthrough on Nightmare difficulty is required, which may be challenging at times but certainly doable. Of course, the more Skylanders you have, the easier the game becomes. The online trophy can be unlocked locally with a second controller or a PlayStation Vita.

Expect roughly 30 hours for the Platinum, depending on your skills.

NOTE: The trophies on the PS4 have a separate list from those on the PS3.

Start by simply going through the story. Nightmare mode, which is the most difficult level in the game, is available from the beginning. So if you wish to avoid a second playthrough for the Eon's Elite trophy, and are confident in your skills, feel free to start with that. The difficulty not only depends on your skills, but how many Skylanders you have. Having 15 or more will certainly make things easier, though if you are only using the starter pack, you'll need to be careful and patient.

During your initial playthrough, you should unlock all the story-related trophies, as well as a few others naturally.

After that, it's time to mop up everything else you're missing. This will include the Academy related trophies, replaying missions for anything you missed, and collecting 12 emblems for the Ooh Shiny trophy. There are 16 emblems in the game, and while you only need 12, you'll be limited by the vehicles you own.

For the Road Trip trophy, you don't need to go online if you have a second controller or a PS Vita.

For more details on which trophies you still need and their requirements, be sure to check out the Skylanders SuperChargers trophy guide links under our Links tab.

Skylanders Imaginators Trophy Guide PS4

Editorial Team

Skylanders Imaginators Trophy Guide. Difficulty: *  An action platformer that utilizes a toys-to-life system, and the sixth main installment in the Skylanders series. An easy Platinum that only requires a little time.

Game Name Difficulty Trophies Developer Country Bronze Silver Gold Online DLC
Skylanders Imaginators * 43 Toys for Bob U.S. 30 9 3 0 0

Skylanders Imaginators

Skylanders Imaginators is a 3D platformer and the sixth major installment in the Skylanders series, following SuperChargers. Like other titles in the series, the game uses a toys-to-life system in which players place Skylanders figures on the Portal of Power device which reads the figure's tags through Near-field communication, which then imports them into the game as playable characters.With Skylanders Imaginators, for the first time, players are able to create their own characters through the use of crystals.

The evil Kaos has discovered the Mind Magic power that has been hidden away by the Ancients, and is using it to create a new army of minions named Doomlanders in order to conquer the world. To defeat Kaos, the Portal Masters have created the Imaginators, who must be trained by the Senseis in order to bring peace back to Skylands.

Skylanders Imaginators received positive reviews with an average score of 78%, praised for its character creation tools and overall fun, though criticized by some for its micro-transactions and not offering enough new content to the series.

This is a high 1-star rating, only because of the time required. The game can be played on Easy mode, and there are no missable trophies. Also, the Platinum doesn't require any extra figures, DLC, or purchases - only the two Senseis and the fire creation crystal that comes includes with the retail game. Skylanders Imaginators is arguably the easiest in the series.

Expect roughly 16-20 hours for the Platinum.

NOTE: The trophies on the PS4 have a separate list from those on the PS3.

There are no difficulty-mode related trophies, so if you're in a rush for that Platinum or simply wish to make things easier for yourself, feel free to select Easy mode.

You can basically just play through the main story from start to end, as there are no missable trophies to worry about. However, if you wish to nab some of the level-specific and miscellaneous trophies during your initial playthrough, be sure to check out the Skylanders Imaginators trophy guide links under our Links page to get familiar with their requirements. But playing through the story will unlock the story-related trophies, as well as some of the other miscellaneous ones naturally. If you're playing on Easy, the story should only take about 7-8 hours to complete.

Once you've finished the story, it's simply a matter of going back and mopping-up whatever you are missing. Again, check out the Skylanders Imaginators trophy guide links, as well as some of the videos, if you're having any trouble. Mopping-up should take about the same amount of time as going through the campaign, depending on how many of the level-specific and miscellaneous trophies you've already unlocked.
