Chapter 29: Fowl Play

Flynn flies you deep into chicken territory. You land near a booth that is manned by someone named Scooter. Talk to him to find out about the way things change around here. Some get much bigger. Others get smaller. Whenever you see something with a purple glow to it, approach and either shrink or enlarge whatever you’re facing.

Try this out on the counterweight that is right next to the booth. It falls, lifting up the platform that is on the other side of its pulley. You can now cross into the main portion of the map.

Jump over two rotating platforms while avoiding enemy attacks. Enlarge the containers of chicken along the way, and then destroy them for extra goodies. When you arrive on proper land again, look for a small, hidden path on the right. This leads to an Epic Treasure Chest.

Go back to the main path and fight off a few mechanical chickens. They’re armed with ranged weapons and can attack even without having line of sight against you. Close-range, fast Skylanders are the most effective here because you can get in there and trash the mechanical chickens before they have a chance to give you much trouble.

Another way to mess with these guys is to enlarge the items they’re throwing at you. This squishes your opponents quite comically.

Clear the area and then look for a puzzle ahead. There is a chicken that you have to get out of its pen. To do this, alter the bag on the right to toss the chicken across the upper ledge. Use the left bag next to rotate the chicken a couple of times until it’s ready to be moved by the second gear. For that, go back to the bag on the right and use it again to push the chicken out of the pen. Nice and easy.

Take the only way forward through the feeding area and into a small arena. You’re met by an enemy that knows you well. He’s been preparing for your arrival (and hoping for your departure)!

A fight breaks out. A Hammerhead bashes at you without much preamble. Shrink its hammer when the enemy is about to attack. This makes the fight quite simple. The little hammers don’t do much damage, making the Hammerheads relatively useless.

A weak wave of enemies rushes you next. They’re absolutely no threat unless you Enlarge them. Just wade through the mess.

You then have to deal with mechanical chickens and Hammerheads together. That’s the real meat of this encounter. Shrink the hammers and enlarge the explosives for these foes, and watch them dwindle. This is especially effective when the mechanical chickens are close to other targets, because they drop their weapons onto anything close by!

Cluck, the leader of the group, isn’t willing to fight you yet. He drops you into a pit instead, ending the encounter. Try to get as much treasure as possible while you’re falling.
