“Oh boy, those Trolls just don't know when to quit. Now they've taken to forging imitations of some very expensive works of art. What's worse is that they are selling them off as originals to unsuspecting patrons. Let's break up this ring by breaking of these imitations as you can. And the more each one is worth, the better!”

Break The Fakes! is a Heroic Challenge in Skylanders: Giants, unlocked by Eye-Brawl. The challenge takes place on a map similar in design to the Cadaverous Crypt. The objective is to destroy forged artwork scattered across the map and collect a total value of 999 coins' worth of imitations within a time limit of three minutes and thirty seconds.

Each fake is worth a different amount, with values ranging from +2, +5, +8, +15, +20, to +25 coins. The forgeries include pots, paintings, and other valuable items commonly found throughout the world of Skylands, all replicated and sold by Trolls posing as art dealers. Players are encouraged to prioritize high-value targets to meet the goal more efficiently.

The challenge features narrow corridors, branching paths, and hidden sections. Several walls throughout the area require either a Giant Skylander or a bomb to destroy in order to access valuable sections. Two hidden teleporters can be found beneath specific fake artworks. These teleporters lead to bombs that are necessary for regular Skylanders to destroy the walls. Behind one of these sections, a key can be found, which is used to unlock a gate that guards a secluded area containing several of the most valuable fakes in the challenge.

Efficient navigation, quick destruction of high-value forgeries, and clever use of teleporters, bombs, and keys are key to completing the objective within the time limit.

Trivia

  • Aside from pots and tins, most fakes are replicas of items found in other heroic challenges. For example, the paintings are replicas of those seen in Where Art Thou, Paintings and You Break It, You Buy It!, and replicas of the Royal Scepter of Nort from Minefield Mishap is also included.
    • A lunchbox featuring the main artwork from Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure can be seen in the challenge.
    • Certain fakes are even based on items seen in the base game of Skylanders: Giants, such as the Spyro Pool Ring from Kaos' Kastle.
    • Additionally, a monkey sock puppet can be seen, which is also seen in Delivery Day.
    • More notable fakes are a statue of liberty Cyclops and a Troll Garden Gnome.
  • This challenge was originally called Con Artists, its timer started at 4:00, and no music played throughout its duration. The player could initially walk around while Cali was talking.[1]
