Story
Since Spyro's last adventure, the Dragon Realms have enjoyed a long period of peace and prosperity. However, a shadowy figure from the distant past has returned to disrupt the serenity of the land - the evil dragon, Red! Now he has come back for vengeance!
There is but one dragon who has the courage and strength to battle Red and foil his diabolical plan - the mighty Spyro!
Moneybags
You'll find his shops in every level of the game, except boss levels, and he'll charge prices depending on where you are. Unfortunately he doesn't have exactly a wide range of items to sell, and all can be bought at all shops, it's just a matter of being able to buy or use them.
| Prices | ||
|---|---|---|
| Item | Realm Shop | Remote Shop |
| Lock-Pick | 500 | 625 |
| Extra Health Unit | 5000 | 6250 |
| Fire Bomb | 50 | 62 |
| Ball Lightning | 250 | 312 |
| Aqua Bomb | 50 | 62 |
| Ice Missile | 100 | 125 |
| Fire Bomb Magazine | 500 | 625 |
| Ball Lightning Magazine | 1000 | 1250 |
| Aqua Bomb Magazine | 250 | 312 |
| Ice Missile Magazine | 750 | 937 |
| Keychain | 5000 | 6250 |
| Butterfly Jar | 1500 | 1875 |
| Double Value Gems | 1000 | 1250 |
| Shockwave | 10000 | 12500 |
| Teleport Pass | 100 | 100 |
That's a extra markup of 25% for items bought at the Remote Shops, so I'd suggest buying the expensive items back in the Realm's main shop.
There are also limitations on how much ammo you can hold at a time. You can hold eight magazines for each Power-Up, with a different boost to the total number of Power-Ups you can hold for each breath Power-Up.
Maximum of 50 Fire Bomb
Maximum of 10 Ball Lightning
Maximum of 100 Aqua Bomb
Maximum of 20 Ice Missile
And the gems that you'll be paying with have a slightly different value to that of previous games.
Gem Values : Yellow = 100, Purple = 25, Green = 5, Red = 1
Well, that's about all you might need to know, let's get started and begin in the Dragon Kingdom.
