Tips and secrets, cheats and codes
4 tips: 4 SecretsSecrets:
How do you destroy sheep statues in level 3-3 of Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure?

In level 3-3 of Skylanders: Spyro’s Adventure, the objective is to destroy sheep statues.
At one of the statues, you need to cross quickly. There’s a gate leading to a treasure room that you can only enter if you’re a sheep. Inside the room, you’ll find 4 sheep, a package, and a treasure chest.
This video will probably make it a bit clearer. (Fast forward to 1:30 as that’s when it starts)
Secrets:
What is the role of each Skylander and how does it affect their statistics?
| Cathelijne |
| 1193 |
Each Skylander has its own role.
This makes one of its stats (luck, speed, defense, or attack) 20% stronger.
In the option for the collected Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure, you can see at which level the role is hidden.
Secrets:
How do you activate the special attack "Shimmer Burst" in Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure on the 3DS?
| Cathelijne |
| 1193 |
Once you've completed the game, you'll unlock a special attack. It's called "Shimmer Burst," and it obliterates every enemy in your vicinity. You can activate the attack using the R button, but it will cost you 10 Shimmers (the little bottles you can collect throughout the world of Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure).
Secrets:
What are the elemental gates in Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure?
| Cathelijne |
| 1193 |
In levels 1, 3, and 5 of each world, you'll find element gates from Skylanders: Spyro’s Adventure. These are small challenges that reward you with hats or upgrades. However, you can only access them with a Skylander of the corresponding element.
The elements are water, fire, life, undead, air, magic, and earth.
Since everyone has at least 3 elements, it's wise to check if any of your Skylanders match the element of the gate, and then replay the level with that Skylander.
Without eight Skylanders of different elements, the game will never feel truly complete.
