    The new RPG elements were a nice touch, but it just is not enough for me to enjoy the game any more.

    Using the same isometric view as the previous titles, Attack of the Rhynocs takes a sizeable leap in gameplay quality and variety. [Jan 2004, p.162]

    The game's an okay platformer with colorful visuals, decent (if generic) music, and control that gets the job done. It's just that there's nothing at all special here.

    Could have been much worse, but with similar games like "Banjo-Kazooie" offering better, deeper gameplay, it's a bit tough to recommend. [Jan 2004, p.76]

Se hace bastante llevadero pero si quieres completarlo al 100% estarás obligado a revisitar el 99% de sitios una segunda vez para abrir cofres que antes no podias abrir, y puede resultar tedioso. En todo lo demas sigue mejorando la experiencia anterior, ahora Spyro tiene aliento de hielo, fuego, y viento con poderes especiales e incluso el clásico salto con cabezazo en picado de los spyro clásicos.… Full Review »
