    This is why isometric view platforms will never be so good. I think even Rayman Hoodlum Revenge is better (and that game is terrible). The graphics and the music are the only good thing about the game, I must say that in this section it stands out a lot. But the gameplay feels like a bad port from the PS1 games, being in isometric view but having the same exploration elements as 3d games,This is why isometric view platforms will never be so good. I think even Rayman Hoodlum Revenge is better (and that game is terrible). The graphics and the music are the only good thing about the game, I must say that in this section it stands out a lot. But the gameplay feels like a bad port from the PS1 games, being in isometric view but having the same exploration elements as 3d games, it means that the perspective and the hitbox is all over the place. You will never know how to distinguish between a higher platform than the one you are already in a jump (and less if the jump includes gliding), also the camera is very close so it is very difficult to explore the environment, almost as if the game expected you to be playing in 3d as if it were the original version. It is easy to fall off the platforms especially since most of them are placed diagonally and not to mention completing 100% of the game, when you do not have any help or anything to find the remaining elements of the stage.
    A shame that the first Spyro game not made by imsomniac turned out to be so bad, after the great game that was Spyro 3.

    It's a tad easy, but it's also so fun and addictive that any platform game fan will enjoy it.

    A good game with a lengthy quest and a decent challenge.
