Pros: kid friendly, humorous
Cons: addicting

The first time I saw Spyro the Dragon was when my nephews were playing it at our last family gathering. It looked like a funny game, so I borrowed it, not knowing that that was a big mistake. Because for the next several days I did nothing else then playing this game.

What has Spyro the Dragon to offer … a lot. Spyro offers a huge amount of fun and variety during the game. Your goal is to rescue the dragon folk from its crystal statues and put one over Gnasty.

The Speech output is good and available in different languages. In addition I was impressed with the graphics, especially enhanced through the feature of the active camera, which can be turned back to passive if you like to.

Spyro is a sweet little dragon, who is accompanied by Sparks, the Dragonfly. His strength lies in his willpower, persuasion and ambition. And those are all the weapons he needs to defeat the bad boy Gnorc, the Gnasty. It is a lot of fun to watch Spyro as he runs, flies and spits fire all through the different levels of the game game.

At the beginning, it seems very easy to play the game, to solve the problems and to find the dragons. Nevertheless, as the game goes on you will discover a steady rising level of difficulty, such as more opponents and hidden levels. But always remember to provide plenty of butterflies for your little dragonfly.
