How it plays
How does Spyro: Attack of the Rhynocs play?
Players guide Spyro through interconnected regions viewed from an overhead perspective. The main objectives are to explore, defeat Rhynocs, collect gems, locate items, and solve requests given by inhabitants.
Spyro can breathe fire, charge enemies, jump across gaps, and use abilities or equipment obtained during the adventure. Progress is driven by completing quests and opening access to new sections rather than by a simple linear stage sequence.
Plan your run
What is the best way to play Spyro: Attack of the Rhynocs?
Explore each area carefully before moving on. Gems are useful for purchases and progression, so search side paths and revisit places after gaining new abilities.
Use fire against vulnerable enemies and charging attacks against targets that resist flames. Before entering a new section, restore health and complete nearby character requests so that backtracking is reduced.
