[Update] Skylanders Trap Team is out right now for Android, but it doesn't work on any devices
Updated on October 2nd, at 12:52: A spokesperson from Activison has got in touch to say that "Skylander’s Trap Team isn’t released in the UK and Europe until October 10th."

The app is currently incompatible with all devices, so you can't use it until then. We'll let you know when the game is available on iOS and Android. Until then, move along!


Do you want to play Skylanders Trap Team on your Android tablet? Well you probably can't.

The game is up on the Play Store right now, but the list of compatible devices is pretty short, and apparently you can't even download it on them at the moment.

The game aims to bring the full Skylanders experience to tablets. Which means you'll need to buy something called the Tablet Starter Pack. That gets you a portal, some Skylanders figures, a bunch of batteries, and some other stuff.

You can play the game without all of that, but not for very long. You only get a couple of digital Skylanders and a couple of traps. If you want to continue the adventure it's plastic tat or nothing.

The game supports controllers, and it's free to download from the Play Store right now.

The devices it can run on are the Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 edition), the Galaxy Note Pro 12.2, the Galaxy Tab Pro: 8.4, 10.1, and 12.2, the Galaxy Tab S: 8.4, and 10.5, and the Nexus 7 (2013). Although right now it might not run on any of those either.
