646f9e108c A young cute purple dragon named Spyro sets out to free his dragon buddies, after they had fallen victim to the villainous Gnasty Gnorc, who has turned them into crystals. Spyro is a young, adolecent dragon that was out having fun until the evil Gnasty Gnorc decided to turn all of the dragons in the Dragon World into crystal statues. Fortunately, he overlooks Spyro and along with his new friend, Sparx, Spyro must free the rest of the dragons. Spyro The Dragon is the first game in the unbeatable Spyro series (well, it was only unbeatable when it was on the PsOne), and it really delivers. Unfortunately, unlike the other Spyro games, there is very little dialog, and pretty much the only characters that talk are Spyro and dragons you free from stone by walking up to them, but the game makes up for that and a few other flaws by its amazing and fun game-play,and the worlds and characters beautiful animation. The music also is great, and I think you should definitely play this game if you are a fan of Spyro or just fun action adventure games.<br/><br/>9/10 It has been years since Spyro was released, and it is still played today. It has even had a few sequels that spawned from it.<br/><br/>The storyline is about a universe where dragons live peacefully amongst each other. Until one day when an ugly, and very evil creature named Gnasty Gnorc, steals the dragons&#39; beautiful treasures and turns them into his henchmen, sends out pesky little thieves to steal dragon eggs throughout a few of the worlds, and traps most of the dragons in stone, the only one he misses is Spyro, a little dragon. Now, it is up to Spyro along with his guardian, a dragonfly named sparks, to save all of the dragons, recover every dragon egg, find all of the treasure, and defeat the evil Gnasty Gnorc.<br/><br/>There is a wide variety of creatures that add to the creativity of the game(this is one of the most creative platform games ever). The main creatures in the game are dragons from certain worlds. The 5 dragon worlds are the artisans world, peace makers world, magic crafters world, beast makers world, and the dream weavers world. The setting of each world sort of resembles parts of our world. The artisans world is like parts of Europe, the peace makers world is all desert, but strongly resembles the Australian outback, the magic crafters is a mountain filled area, it sort of resembles Switzerland, the beast makers world is like an African village, and the dream weavers world is like an area with a lot of castles.<br/><br/>The other creatures in this game are Gnorcs(a mix between a gnome and an orc), fairies, dragon egg thieves(they have blue hooded cloaks), and normal animals from our world(sheep, chickens, lizards, etc.) The Gnorcs take certain forms, suchmany resemble human like creatures, but many resemble animals. The fairies help guide everything in the dragon worlds. In one level, they assist Spyro if he falls from a cliff, and in many levels, if Spyro is kissed by a fairy, he will get a temporary power to destroy certain metal objects with his fire.<br/><br/>Along the way, Spyro learns many different techniques in order to save everything in the Dragon Kingdom. Completing the game 100% is difficult, but it can be done. It just requires plenty of thought and skill that you will probably develop while playing the game.<br/><br/>The game play is very fun, the animation is amazing(the villains are very cool looking), the music score is also good. If there is one thing I have a complaint about, it is the voice work for Spyro. His voice is very wimpy, and his character is kind of annoying in certain parts. If he had much better voice work done with him, the game would be even better than it already is.<br/><br/>Spyro is a very fun game. People of any age can play it. I was 10 the first time I played it. I absolutely loved it. Now I am well into my teens and I still enjoy playing it. Play this game at all costs, it is really fun.
