Christopher Buffa (Modojo): Skylanders Trap Team makes its long-awaited debut October 5. Fans not only receive a new game on Skylanders Sunday, but also a variety of toys that compliment the experience, from the cool-looking Trap Masters to the pint-sized Minis. In addition, there's Traptanium, magical stones that work in conjunction with the all-new Portal of Power, which the publisher refers to as the Traptanium Portal. When combined, users can essentially trap bad guys within Traptanium and control these creatures.

New this year is the ability to defeat villains and then capture them using a mysterious resource known as Traptanium, fancy pieces of plastic that fit into the redesigned Portal of Power. Once that happens, the hapless evildoer fights for good. In addition, trapped characters talk to gamers via a speaker inside the Portal.

NWR: "Skylanders Trap Team is a fantastic, well-made game. The lengthy story mode is filled with excellent gameplay set in gorgeous environments with top-shelf graphics and sound. The bonus modes, while focused mostly on combat, are a lot of fun. Outside of the over-powered and integral nature of the new Trap Master figures, Trap Team is close to being the best Skylanders game yet."
