Spyro the Dragon may be divisively easy and not up to par with the Ratchet & Clank games in the writing department, but if you're into the classic, collectathon 3D platformers of the '90s, then this represents the foundation upon which many were built. Its broadly appealing yet simple gameplay, gorgeous stages, quality art direction, and innovative soundtrack combine to create a game that's truly, as they say these days, fire.
In "Spyro the Dragon," players control a young dragon named Spyro on a quest to rescue frozen dragons and defeat the antagonist, Gnasty Gnorc. Spyro's friend Sparx the dragonfly indicates his health and helps gather gems. By freeing and conversing with other dragons, Spyro advances through levels and gains new abilities to overcome obstacles and defeat enemies.
