The original trilogy—Spyro the Dragon, Ripto's Rage and Year of the Dragon—has a special place in my heart. There’s nothing that defines my childhood more, so I was thrilled to re-experience the adventures all over again. Call me biased, but it was an excellent remaster and every bit as magical and addictive. Seeing all the characters and worlds in crisp HD was almost emotional, so I’d definitely recommend it to those that grew up with Spyro.

That isn’t to say that new players wouldn’t enjoy it too. The games are colourful, charming, and offer hours of entertainment.
