About Spyro the Dragon

Spyro the Dragon is a platform game developed by Insomniac Games for the PlayStation.

The first game was massively popular at its initial release and Spyro would later become one of the most recognizable, popular and respected gaming icons for the PlayStation gaming console. Spyro's best friend, Sparx the dragonfly, acts like the player's health meter and assists in gathering gems.

Gnasty Gnorc is the main antagonist, who froze all the dragons of the land in crystal.
