Suddenly, the dragons turn to crystal one by one, Spyro being the only survivor. As the only dragon left, you must flame, charge, and glide your way through the many levels, freeing dragons and collecting treasure, in order to defeat the vicous Gnasty Gnorc.
Spyro the Dragon is one of those games that I consider like a feel good game. Heck, even my mother played it back in the day. In Spyro you are a dragon with a dragonfly sidekick helping with restoring all your dragonfolk to their former selves after being turned to stone by a villain named 'Gnasty Gnorc' I know, I know, sounds silly but remember, this were the ps1 era.
It's pretty fun collecting gems and participating in flying minigames but the bane of my existence back then was catching the egg thief. So, if you're looking for a game where you could relax and just chill for a few hours collecting gems and chasing thieves and breathing fire on mooning enemies then this game is for you.
You take on the role of Spyro and your mission is to save all of the other dragons who have been basically petrified, reclaim all of the dragon treasure that has been stolen, and defeat the evil Gnasty Gnorc who is the cause of all the trouble. Back in , kids went crazy for Spyro. The original Spyro the Dragon game is a fine blend of simple gameplay mechanics with quirky characters and interesting worlds. As the first in the series, it set a precedent of what was to come.
Spyro and Sparx must travel across their homeland with the help of the Balloonist, freeing all the dragons Gnasty Gnorc has frozen. Spyro rams, runs, breathes fire, and flies in this first game in the series.
Elements of collecting and an inventory of special hidden items make this title super addictive to play. Working with the same core basics as the first title, the second release of the original canon feels meatier and boasts more missions to complete. The dragons from the original game take a well-earned rest for this one. Instead, new NPCs including fawns and robots set challenges for Spyro. In homage to platformers such as Mario 64 and Banjo, Spyro now needs to find orbs in each level to progress to the next stage.
As opposed to saving strategically placed dragons, orbs are found by completing certain tasks. As before, Sparx takes the place of a health bar, albeit an interactive one.
His colour drains when Spyro is running low on health, so keep an eye out for when he loses that sparkling sheen. Bottled butterflies act like the fairies in Ocarina of Time when Spyro needs a boost, meaning you no longer have to run around trying to find a sheep in your hour of need. Spyro games boast an iconic style that is instantly recognisable.
Glide to secret locations, charge enemies into oblivion, and collect gems to spend for items. Spyro: Year of the Dragon takes the third spot in this list of the best Spyro games of all time.
After the success of the first two games, Insomniac could have produced any old rubbish and we would have bought it. What they did make was an amazing game with better graphics, catchier music, and even more exciting features to try out. Minigames made an appearance in Year of the Dragon, adding yet another thing for us all to lose our minds over. As a ten year old, I soaked up this game like a hairy sponge and loved the new textures in the levels as well as the introduction of new playable characters.
Sheila the Kangaroo and Sergeant Byrd gave players the chance to complete sections of levels as another character entirely.
As well as breathing fire, Spyro can also swim. No more dying every time you fall in the water from now on! Moneybags the Bear controls items needed to progress and trades items for gems, while dragon eggs must be collected in order to progress through the different stages. It looks like American video game developer Toys for Bob will have it plate full resurrecting beloved '90s PlayStation franchises for a whole new generation.
Back in the day, Spyro the Dragon was the adorable little fire-breather that stole our hearts and many hours of our lives as we chugged through his games. Now, he could be coming back with an official fourth main series game. While many thought of Crash Bandicoot as Sony's very own Sonic the Hedgehog, Spyro made waves and carved himself an impressive legacy.
Although the original trilogy came to an end with Spyro: Y ear of the Dragon in , the name has lived on through a complicated timeline of reboot trilogies, crossovers into Skylanders , and cancelled games. Toys for Bob took the reins for the acclaimed Spyro Reignited Trilogy in and brought the once-forgotten name back to life.
With Reignited being a certified hit, it sounds like the developer is going full Crash and working on a fourth Spyro. Zoomed in pictures for reference. Right picture provided by: tabreezsiddique. Aside from Reignited , there hasn't been a "new" Spyro game since 's Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure. As well as highlighting how the wild and wacky world of this Crash reinvention was crafted, SpyroUniverse has pointed out an interesting mention of Spyro.
Instead of this just being a well-placed Easter egg, the quote about it being a "hint" comes directly from Crash 4 concept artist Brun Croes - suggesting there's more to it. It all looks promising, but are we just nostalgic gamers grasping at straws in the hopes of another Spyro. In the '90s, PlayStation owners were largely divided into two camps depending on whether they were Crash or Spyro fans. Unfortunately, while that blundering bandicoot stood the test of time, this daring dragon largely slipped into the history books.
Going in favour of the idea of Spyro 4 is the fact Crash 4 did so well.
