Nasu rates this game: 5/5A wonderful sequel to an amazing game.
The player must be ready to take the role of Spyro, the young purple dragon, yet again and master all of his new skills. The game begins showing Spyro, who wants to take a vacation. Seeing the portal for Dragon Shores, him and Sparx rush for it.
Meanwhile, in another land known as Avalar, Elora the Faun, Hunter the Cheetah, and the Professor are trying to summon a dragon to defeat Ripto, who was brought into their land by an accident. A little background on Ripto, hes an ugly little orange creature who hates dragons on another note, he has two minions who gladly give anyone he wishes a beating.
Anyway, back to the story. Once the trio succesfuly open a portal to the dragons homes, Spyro comes running through it. Confused, he talks to the trio, in hopes of learning what is going on. Not long after, Ripto shows up and the adventure begins again.
You start your adventure in Summer Forest then move onto Autumn Plains, and lastly onto Winter Tundra, where you will confront Ripto and save the day yet again.
Some newly added things are; Moneybags, Swimming, Climbing, Head Bash, multiple power ups, and more.
Random Facts: Elora the Faun isnt seen for a long time after Spyro 2 and she is only seen again in one of the DS games as a minor role.
Ripto returns for revenge on Spyro in Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly and he is also the main antagonist in one of the gameboy games.
Several of the breakable chests in Spyro the Dragon have dissapeared, only to be replaced by one new chest. While not important, I think they couldve stayed just for the fun of it.
Darkluigi rates this game: 5/5Well i had this game as a kid i played the first spyro but i can't remember anything from it so i decided to try this game out again. It was very weird that i had so much fun on this game just from doing all the side missions and collecting all the jems/orbs.
