Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure/Shattered Island

Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure

Chapter 1 - Shattered Island

Elements required for 100% completion: - magic - water - tech

Maximum speedrun time: 3min 48s

Collectables: - Chop Chop "Bone Brambler" Soul Gem - Swine Salary (Legendary Treasure; +50 gold) - Viking Helmet (Hat; +5 Critical Hit) - Pan Hat (Hat; +2 Armour, +2 Elemental) - Anvil Hat (Hat; +5 Armour) - 3 Treasure Chests - "Portals" (Story Scroll)

When prompted to do so, place a skylander on the portal of power. Spyro is a popular choice. After Hugo finishes talking, go right along the bridge.

Fractured Vista

Use your attack buttons (A and X on XBOX) to smash the barrel. Smashing debris will give you gold, used for upgrading later on. Continue on to the right. Clear the debris and smash the wooden wall with your attacks. Go through to meet Snuckles. After talking to him, use the action button (Y on XBOX) to fire the cannon into the blockade. Fire it again to destroy a distant building, revealing a legendary treasure you will collect later. Go on through.

Old Town

Here, a Mabu named Rizzo will teach you how to use keys. Collect the key, walk up to the gate and use the key (Push RS forward on XBOX) to open it.

Market Curve

Rather than following the Mabu, go right and bust open the 1st Treasure Chest (Move RS side to side quickly on XBOX). Go to the cannon and fire it to clear the blockade. Go through and then right to collect the Legendary Treasure you uncovered earlier. Grab the key then go down to the gate and open it.

Turtle Gully

Here, Nort will state the issue: there is a fat turtle in the way, and Blobbers is having trouble moving it. Luckily, by simply walking into it, you can push it out of the way. Keep pushing until it completely clears the path for the Mabu to come through. Follow the coins down a drop on the right. There are two turtles blocking the path. Push the first to the left and the second all the way along the bridge. Cap'n Flynn will call down to you from above. Before using the bounce pads, push the turtle to the right and then into the gap. Walk over the turtle then go down the slope to a Magic Gate. If you are using Spyro, it will open for you, if not, switch to Spyro or another Magic skylander. A Magic bridge will form; continue onward.

Turtle Hideout (Magic Gate)

In here is a turtle puzzle. Push the nearest to the left, then push the one on the right forwards twice. Push the others out of the way. Go up to the present. Busting it open will reveal the Viking Helmet. Turn around and follow the ramp to get the Soul Gem for Chop Chop. Exit the area.

Turtle Gully (cont.)

Use the bounce pad to get to the above ledge, then go right, using the bounce pad to get to the Story Scroll on the right. Bounce left across the gap then use the final bounce pad to get to Flynn. Unfortunately, right when he is about to explain his mighty plan, an incoming flying rock destroys the platform and sends you hurtling towards a new area.

Chompie Pit

Switch to Gill Grunt (or another Water Skylander) to traverse the water on the left. Here lies the 2nd Treasure Chest. Go back right, then up to the gate, where Blobbers explains that you must kill all the chompies, 15 of them to be exact, to open it. Once the job is done go through the gate where Blobbers will tell you about Elemental Gates. To the left there is a Water Gate and to the right there is a Tech Gate. As you are currently a Water Skylander, go left first (although it doesn't matter at all). Go through the gate and into the whirlpool.

Whirpool Falls (Water Gate)

You will be teleported to the top of a waterfall. Smash any debris you see in this area for more gold. Bounce up to the next ledge, then go right and bounce up to a present containing the Pan Hat. Go back down and follow the coins out of the area.

Chompie Pit (cont.)

Go to the Tech Gate on the right and switch to Trigger Happy or another Tech Skylander to open it. Go through and cross the bridge that forms.

Floating Mills (Tech Gate)

All that needs to be done here is dodging the blades to get to the present containing the Anvil Hat, then going back again.

Chompie Pit (cont.)

Follow Blobbers.

Ancient Landmark

Uh-oh, the Royal Mabu Family is trapped. Kill the chompies, then push the turtle into the gap. Go up the slope, walk over the turtle and fire the cannon to clear the blockade on the other side. Use the bounce pad to cross over. Collect the 3rd and final Treasure Chest on the right, then get the key, drop back down and open the gate to free the Royal Mabu Family. You will be congratulated for your services.

To get 100% completion, speedrun the level under the time indicated at the start of this walkthrough. This applies to all levels.

The cutscene explains the destruction of the Core of Light by Kaos' Hydra.

Ruins

This is basically HQ. Not much here to do just yet except collecting a few gems. Talk to Flynn to travel to the next area.

Congratulations on completing Chapter 1!!!

Stay tuned for Chapter 2 - Perilous Pastures.
