Description - The Toy Rescue Story Adventure

The Video Game features a story mode that follows The Toy Rescue Story Adventure film adventures in which the toy gang grapple with their uncertain future as Andy prepares to depart for college. Play as Woody, Buzz, Jessie, the Soldiers or the Aliens, and be part of a unique adventure into the The Toy Rescue Story Adventure world. And The Toy Rescue Story Adventure adventure doesn't end there, as bonus sequences take you beyond the events of the film! Help Buzz to fight the terrible Zurg in his secret base. And have a fantastic ride in the Wild West with Bullseye, Woody's faithful horse.

Mode - The Toy Rescue Story Adventure

The Toy Rescue Story Adventure mode is still fun and worthwhile, but The Toy Rescue Story Adventure is really the selling point for the game. It's essentially an open world quest-driven game where you play as the Sheriff of a toy town, using Woody, Buzz, or Jessie. And since it doesn't follow the movie's plot, the entire world is based around the idea of how the toys perceive their environment when they're being played with. The result is a mode that still has all the familiar faces that you'd expect from the film franchise, but that introduces a host of gameplay elements that fall well outside what a simple follow-the-film game would allow.

The quests in The Toy Rescue Story Adventure are a little simple for most adults (though still fun), but what they're really good at is introducing the various ways you can interact with the world. Each new mechanic, instead of being told through a standard tutorial, is introduced in a quirky quest, making learning a whole lot more fun than usual. And even when the quests were far too easy I still found myself becoming addicted, as TS3's quest lines are structured in such a way that you'll finish one only to open up several more, making it easy to get into that "just one more" mentality.

But while The Toy Rescue Story Adventure can be a really guided experience if that's how you want to play it, what I appreciate is how it really tries to put something in there for everyone. Kids, or people who just don't care about doing quests, can spend time decorating and customizing their town or citizens – right down to where they want buildings to be. Additionally, players also get the ability to do a host of other fun things like go on races, do trick courses with toy cars, or even just enlarge and shrink things in the world with piles of goo. The Toy Rescue Story Adventure always has something for players to do on a whim, encouraging kids and adults alike to just, well, play. After all, when we were kids our playtime wasn't always structured, right? The Toy Rescue Story Adventure really gives you a chance to just let your imagination take you to silly places.

Gameplay - The Toy Rescue Story Adventure

It's worth mentioning, though, that the PC version of TS3 has far fewer options in the Toy Box mode than the other versions. You can still customize the look of the buildings and of your citizens, but now when you customize one you customize them all. The result is that there's a lot less to do in town, and fewer ways to just play around. Furthermore, the PC version also has very little customization as far as the graphics go, making it a pretty mediocre looking game even if you have an awesome system.
