Disney Infinity is a sandbox action-adventure sandbox toys-to-life video game series developed by Avalanche Software. The setting of the series is a giant customizable universe of imagination, known as the Toy Box, populated with toy versions of iconic Disney, Pixar, Marvel and Star Wars characters.

Why It's Infinite

  1. The mere idea of multiple franchises made by Disney, Pixar, Marvel, and Lucasfilms mash-up together into a single sandbox 3D platforming tie-in video game is a pretty good idea for a video game by its mere concept.
  2. The character models and designs are cute, appealing, and cartoony!
  3. The voice acting of ALL the characters is very great, entertaining, and enjoyable. Especially since the dialog they spout out, ranges from endearing to comedic.
  4. The animation between the cutscenes and facial animation for every character is very impressive and expressive.
  5. Toy Box Takeover is a very challenging yet rewarding campaign.
  6. The story (e.g. Rise of the Empire, Marvel Superheroes, etc) is extremely fun to play despite it being a sandbox game.
    • In fact, there are some moments that weren't removed like Obi-Wan's death in The Rise of the Empire, and Loki's Invasion of Earth in Marvel Superheroes!
  7. You get to play as your favorite iconic and beloved Disney characters (and even characters from the Marvel and Lucasfilms universes) such as Mickey Mouse, Jack Sparrow, Luke Skywalker, Captain America, Iron Man, Boba Fett, Spider-Man, Venom, Darth Vader, Mr. Incredible & his family, Mike Wazowski, Randall Boggs, Joy, Anger, Dory, Lightning McQueen, Star-Lord, Rocket Raccoon, Groot and so many more!
  8. Several toy pieces including the Monster University one, the Marvel one, the Jack Sparrow one, and the Incredible one have cool play sets.
  9. In Interior mode, you get to walk around different rooms so you can design different rooms to see how to place items on walls and more.
  10. In Toy Box mode, there are so many creative ways you can customize the placement and coloring designs of building structures, platforms, room designs, etc. You are also able to stack up the structures to a certain level of height as well, which is just enough to have mountains of replay value and continuous gameplay for anyone to enjoy.
  11. There are some modders out there, like YouTube, that teach you to use any character to play the game without necessarily using marketable figurines/action figures.

Bad Qualities

  1. The Wii and 3DS versions are bad.
  2. Some of the scenes weren't from the original film like when Leia, Han and Chewie followed Luke together to the Death Star, or when how Loki froze the Avengers altogether while the original movie didn't.

Reception

Disney Infinity received generally positive reviews from critics (except for the 3DS version, which received negative reviews). It received a 75 and 74 out of 100 on review aggregator site Metacritic, for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 respectively.

The sandbox mode, namely the Toy Box Mode, received much praise. Steven O'Donnell of Good Game: Spawn Point stated that "it's a bit like Minecraft in that you're dropped into an open world that you can then build some pretty spectacular structures in." Kevin VanOrd of GameSpot called the Toy Box "a gleefully entertaining shared space," and greatly preferred it over the story mode.

Daniel Krupa of IGN said that they're "well-made statues," and that "each one really captures the personality of that character with a charismatic stance." The soundtrack and dialogue of Disney Infinity also received mixed reactions.

In September 2013, Disney revealed that the game had sold 294,000 copies in the United States during its first two weeks on sale.

On October 18, 2013, Disney Interactive announced that the game had sold more than one million copies worldwide. With more figures not yet released, Disney hoped the number of units sold would continue to grow. As of January 20, 2014, three million starter packs had been sold.
