Skylanders: Trap Team

Long ago, in the Skylands, there was a group of villains called the Doom Raiders, who spread mayhem wherever they went. Only the best Skylanders armed with special weapons made of Traptanium were strong enough to defeat and capture them, and imprison them in Cloudcracker Prison. They were kept there until Kaos freed them, sending the Trap Master Skylanders in our world, along with the shards of Cloudcracker Prison, which were turned into Traptanium Traps.

The gameplay focuses on platforming with puzzle-solving and items collecting, similar to previous games in the series. The Elemental Gate returns but can only be accessed by Trap Master Skylanders of matching element. Players can break Traptanium crystals to gain loot or uncover hidden areas, and some enemies can be caught in the Traps of the matching element to use as playing characters.

The Kaos Doom Challenges are tower defense levels where players must prevent Kaos' minions from breaking a treasure box by building defense mechanisms that attack and get upgraded for every enemy wave defeated. These levels reward players with treasures and experience points.
