Turns out he was summoned by a group of freedom fighters, Hunter the Cheetah, Elora the Faun & the Professor. The plot is simple enough…Spyro & his dragonfly partner, Sparx decide to take a vacation to Dragon Shores but get whisked away to the realm of Avalar instead. Spyro 2: Ripto’s Rage isn’t as fondly remembered as the original but in many areas it is actually a superior game. It’s a pity because the PS1 games were all great, building on what had come before & improving it just enough.


The series has spawned more sequels & spinoffs over the years to varying results & nowadays the purple dragon isn’t exactly held in high regard. Spyro the Dragon was a huge hit for the PS1, bright, colourful & with excellent gameplay that entertained all ages.
