Even without much of a story, the first game still holds up on its own and is an entertaining play.
Therefore, during the duration of the game, the player just spends their time traversing each level collecting gems and rescuing dragons who do provide little narrative snippets that might better be served in an area already completed. There are only two cutscenes during Spyro the Dragon and they are at the beginning and the end of the game. The main antagonist of the game, Gnasty Gnorc, has turned all the dragons into crystal and it just so happens that Spyro is the only remaining dragon who escaped this fate. Spyro the Dragon has the most basic story of the three, which is of course to be expected from the first release in the series. Spyro Reignited Trilogy consists of three full games – Spyro the Dragon, Spyro 2: Ripto’s Rage! and Spyro: Year of the Dragon, and to this day they hold up – they certainly don’t feel like games of that era.
Developer, Toys for Bob, clearly considered this a labour of love and as a result has given Spyro, the pint-sized purple dragon, a significant facelift. This is over twenty years past the release of the original games on the PlayStation One. Spyro Reignited Trilogy has been released on the Nintendo Switch in September 2019.
