![]() ![]() ![]() One of the ways it achieves this is through its characterisation – while Gateway to Glimmer showed the team at Insomniac were capable of making a legion of interesting side-characters, Year of the Dragon goes all-in introducing a memorable cast. ![]() Spyro’s quest to save the eggs from an evil Sorceress isn’t going to win any writing awards, but for a kid’s game it does a remarkable job of telling a compelling story that’ll be liked by both children and adults alike and weaves in well with the already-established lore of its predecessors. The opening scene sets the tone for the rest of the game – it’s funny (Bianca steps on Hunter’s paw which wakes him up) it’s a nice dose of fanservice (characters from both the first and second games return) and it features a simple yet interesting plot. As Spyro and Hunter are the only ones who can fit down the burrows, they’re forced to follow and retrieve the eggs – starting the adventure. From here, a number of burrows appear and through them comes a hooded rabbit leading an army of Rhynocs who steal the eggs and escape to the Forgotten Realms. Year of the Dragon starts with Spyro and Hunter asleep in the Dragon Realms surrounded by Spyro’s elders and a load of dragon eggs. ![]()
