All previous Infinity toys are compatible with this latest version, although, as always, there's no cross pollination between franchises allowed in play sets (so no Olaf from Frozen in the Twilight of the Republic play set, for example). Place the Ashoka toy on the Disney Infinity base, for example, and seconds later she'll appear on screen. Yes, that's one less toy than the Marvel version last year, but the price is slightly lower, too, a fact that cash-strapped parents may find somewhat comforting (you can even use your old Infinity base and just download the new game for a significantly lower cost).įor the uninitiated, Disney Infinity is a toys-to-life game where physical, real-world toys unlock their virtual counterparts within a game. You'll get the game plus two toys/characters-the aforementioned Jedi pair of Ahsoka and Anakin. Set in the Clone Wars period of the Star Wars universe, Twilight of the Republic is this year's Infinity starter set. None have matched the sheer fun of simply exploring and playing around in the Toy Box mode.ĭisney Infinity 3.0 is the closest the series has come to a parity in quality on both of its sides, with the Twilight of the Republic Play Set that comes with this year's starter pack a joy to play. These Play Sets have varied in quality, but the bar has been consistently middling they've ranged from the very poor to the somewhat enjoyable. On the other side are the pre-made game adventures (called play sets) that came with the last two Disney Infinity starter packs (or sold separately, in some cases), games which were set in various Disney worlds such as the Marvel universe, Pirates of the Caribbean, and more. On the one side is Infinity's wonderful Toy Box mode, a creative playpen that gives players an opportunity to make their own games and levels, even if the exhaustive tools that are available often make the mode more intimidating than intuitive. The Disney Infinity series, too, has had games that showcase plenty of contrasts.
It was an interesting contrast-my son hitting the one button over and over while I tried to make the most of the improved combat in Infinity, both of us having fun in our own way.
My six-year-old son-in charge of yet-to-be mass murderer Anakin Skywalker (spoiler)-button mashed away, and was making as much of an impact on General Grievous' health as I was. There I was, trying (and only occasionally succeeding) in the timing of some of Ahsoka Tano's combat combos in Disney Infinity 3.0.
