Skylar & Plux takes players to a striking natural world of lush jungles, volcanic pits, and brilliant blue skies, taking them across many different colorful landscapes. The villain, CRT, intends to conquer and ruin this world, but it will be up to the duo to stop them.

 

While the pair are capable of some platforming and fighting on their own, it’s the silly tools that add a lot of appeal to this style of game. Skylar & Plux offers an array of such gadgets to give players multiple ways of getting around, like flying with the jet pack or grappling onto hooks and swinging through the sky. Players also have use of a magnetic glove that can grab missiles to throw back at enemies, or grab giant items to bowl over foes and solve puzzles.
