Another amazing Skylanders set!

Reviewed in the United States on February 22, 2013

Edition: Empire of IceVerified Purchase

I love this game so much. It almost doesn't bother me that you essentially pay 20x more than any other game out there to get the full benefit of it! Which as a single parent is saying quite a lot!

These characters are fantastic, fun to collect, wholesome for the kids to play with, and just downright cool! I love the game and all these little guys that go with them. It's such a genius idea on so many levels and this set has become a particular favorite! Because really, who doesn't have some kind of fascination with snow creatures at some age!?
Really fun set, excellent bargain, am thrilled with the purchase as is my son!

These figures are sturdy and full of detail. They perform just as well within pretend play fueled only by your child' s imagination or when interacting spectacularly with the X Box, Wii etc. Great for age 4 upwards - but will attract big brothers and Dads too!!

A very COOL Adventure Pack. Get it?!

Reviewed in the United States on April 25, 2012

Edition: Empire of IceVerified Purchase

Empire of Ice is the first Adventure Pack we've bought, with the main reason being for Slam Bam. Of the 4 water types, he's the only one with ice-based moves, and that makes him unique. Plus it doesn't hurt that he looks like Bumble from Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer on steroids. This Pack's been selling out like crazy in the last few weeks, but if you're patient and keep checking this page, it's bound to show up again in no time.

As you can see in the picture, this set includes the following: the character Slam Bam, the Empire of Ice level, and Anvil Rain and Sky-Iron Shield, two items that are used immediately upon being placed on the portal. Slam Bam is a very strong and durable Skylander who fights with his powerful punches and can freeze enemies in a prison of ice. His special move, used by pressing the circle button (if you're playing on a ps3) lets him slide on the ground for a short distance. Sadly, this slide, which is a lot like Zap's Sea Slime move, is just for transportation and doesn't offer any kind of offense or defense. It's still a fast way of getting around compared to running. The punches are good when fully upgraded, but the best path for Slam Bam is upgrading his ice prison skill. With enemies immobilized, they're in for a world of hurt when Slam Bam comes stomping over. And for what it's worth, Mr. Bam can also surf on water with an ice surf board. Man this guy is stylin'!

The two items are both good but it felt weird using these since you don't get things like this during standard play. Place either item on the Portal, and they're activated instantly. Anvil Rain does exactly what the name implies- a ton of anvils fall from the sky for a short period of time, squashing everything they hit. As cool as it sounds, there are times when the anvils barely hit anything because they don't fall that rapidly, so enemies can move around before the next one hits the ground. Iron-Sky Shield is a nice item that protects your character for a limited time too. Both items are nice to have if an area's giving you a tough time, though the shield is the better of the two.

As for the Empire of Ice level itself, it's about the same length as any other level in the game. Many have complained about this, but with most levels in Skylanders being 15-25 minutes long, it fits right in with the others. To open the level, place the Empire of Ice piece on the Portal, and an area on the left side of the Ruins will open up. To get there, just go down to the beach, go past the boat on the left side and you can't miss it. The stage is a little frustrating since you're constantly sliding around on the icy floor, but it has some cool new enemies and two of my favorite hats in the game- a cossack hat and a Santa hat! The Santa one looks like your typical Santa hat but with spikes along the white fur bottom. Throw this baby on Slam Bam and it'll be a sure sign to evil-doers that he means business. I won't spoil anything about the stage and what's all in there, except I have to say that it ends in a very underwhelming way, and is the main reason why I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5. They couldn't have given us a more exciting final part? Hopefully the other Adventure Pack levels have better endings.

If you pay the original retail price for Empire of Ice, you're getting your money's worth. By now everyone knows that Skylanders is the huge thing in gaming, with Adventure Packs and characters selling out like crazy, which means inflated prices. Just be patient and you'll get one soon. And hey, by the time Giants comes out in a few months, all the focus will be on the new stuff that game brings along.

We enjoy the skylanders game on the Wii at our house. My children that play the game are 10, 7, and 5. All the characters are unique and it's fun to see how each one works. Slam Bam is one of my 5-yr old's favorite characters.

Son thinks Slam Bam is AWESOME!

Got this item for a seriously great price. Which helped make up for overpaying on a different Skylanders item through another seller. These series 1 Skylanders are becoming pricier and harder to find since the Giants game came out. Collect 'em while you can. They are becoming harder to find and therefore pricier.

Half the price of full game - so takes half the time to solve, right? Uh, no.

Reviewed in the United States on May 13, 2012

Edition: Empire of IceVerified Purchase

So Skylanders as a game is a success. Fun to play, great little characters, changes scenes and gameplay so it never feels like a rut.

I appreciate how they keep adding characters and levels like "Empire" so you can solve the main game, but still add something new to the experience.

But, for $20, this add-on level (and really, Pirate Seas and Darklight Crypt) is a little too much of a money grab. It simply does not have enough value for the money.

The issue is the better you get at the game, and the higher levels all the characters become, these add-on levels become very easy, even if you start from scratch. That wasn't an issue with Pirate Seas or Darklight - but with Empire, I just blazed through the level in a couple hours.

Sure, I can play again and again with different characters, but I would have liked more of a challenge - plus the final 'villain' is very boring. The entire add-on was not creative enough for the money.

"Slam Bam" is a fun new Skylander - so if you think of it as $8 for the character, then maybe the $12 for the level isn't so bad...I still felt a little let-down, though.

I would absolutely not pay scalper prices for this. This would be a good add-on to buy cheap and used a few months from now, and save your real money for Giants, or for individual characters (though you'd still have to buy this to get "Slam Bam). I would rather repeat gameplay with new characters then spend the money on a level that won't take me any time.

this adds a nice ice level to both Spyro's and the Skylanders Giants games and includ slam bam that likes to go around surfing and punching things with sometiems freezing them then punching them it is a great idea to add a level with a diffrent feeling to the games.
