One day, Bianca spent a few hours in the library researching ideal vacation spots for a trip she was planning for Spyro, Hunter and herself. With all the travel books, Bianca mistakenly left the Sorceress' Spell book behind. Finding the book, Grendor was inspired by an ingenious plan. Flipping through the pages, he found himself a transformation spell to change his meager frame into a towering mass of muscle and brainpower! Wasting no more time, he read the spell aloud; too hasty even to notice the book was turned upside down. Grendor wound up with bulk and brainpower all right, but in the form of two heads, and a migraine in both of his thick skulls.
Spyro: Season of Ice
Spyro: Season of Ice
Spyro: Season of Ice is the first Spyro game to appear on the GBA. The first Spyro game to be made by a developer other then Spyro's creators Insomniac Games, Digital Eclipse have done a decent enough job on this game to make it playable and replayable.
Season of Ice takes you, as Spyro, to the Fairy Realms in order to save them from an evil menace. Set shortly after Year of the Dragon, Season of Ice continues with a slightly linked story but really it's not the greatest story you'll have ever encountered.

The Story
Here's the official word on the story from the SpyroTheDragon.com website:
After the defeat of the Sorceress, many of her old Rhynoc minions were left out of work or had to take less-than-ideal day jobs. None more so than Grendor, the Rhynoc librarian at the Grand Central Dragon Realms library. A small, meek figure, Grendor never made the cut into the Rhynoc army and desperately longed for a career change.
And here's my description of the opening part to the game...
The camera zooms in to see Spyro, Hunter and Bianca relaxing on a beach somewhere, probably Dragon Shores, when Hunter suddenly sees something in the sky. He thinks it's a flying sheep saucer but Spyro recognises it as a balloon. Bianca catches it and reads the note attached to it. The note is from Zoe and reads: 'Dear Spyro, I'm using every last drop of my magic to send you this message. Someone has cast a powerful spell over the Fairy World and, freezing fairies in Ice Crystals. And we can't get out! Now, the Rhynocs are back and collecting fairies one by one. I wish I knew what they were up to. Please come back before it's too late.' Spyro decides to go help the fairies and Bianca says she'll go off and check her spell book for something to help.
Hunter mentions that she hasn't been carrying the Spell Book for a few days which is news to Bianca but she finds out that she no longer has it on her. She realises that she must have left it in the library when she got the travel book for their vacation. As she sets off to find her book, Hunter, Spyro and Sparx head off to help the fairies.
The Controls
| Spyro the Dragon | |
| A | Jump. Press again when in the air to glide. Press again whilst in glide to hover and end the glide. |
| B | Flame |
| R | Charge |
| Start | Bring up the start menu |
| Select | Open the Atlas |
Gems are once again the currency of the world, and once again you'll be needing to collect it all to get 100% completion.
| Gem Colour | Gem Value |
| Red | 1 |
| Green | 2 |
| Purple | 5 |
| Yellow | 10 |
Gems are once again in the same places as usual. In flammable baskets, chargeable vases, locked chests, inside Rhynocs and just lying around on the ground.
Sparx
And as usual Sparx is Spyro's health meter.
| Sparx Colour | Hits Left |
| Yellow | 4 |
| Blue | 3 |
| Green | 2 |
| None | 1 |
To regain Sparx's health just flame a small animal such as a sheep that will give out a butterfly. Each butterfly will regain one health point.
Progress Saving
Strangely enough, for a world filled entirely with fairies, there are no progress saving fairies in the whole game. None. So every time you die, you'll be taken all the way back to the start of the level and have to redo everything except collecting gems and freeing fairies.
Well, that's enough of that then. On to the walkthrough, getting started with Autumn Fairy Home.
Comments
I hate this game now. I'm wrecking it. How am I doing that? Removing the game pak while the DS is on. It works well. And, it's triggered a glitch! There's 2 gems I've already gotten, when you save, remove the game pak after saving (when the power is on, I advice you turn the sound off it can be quite noisy) and powering off. Then you power back on. Search around the Summer fairy home and you should find 2 gems!
dark52, are you sure those err, THINGS at Market Mesa are llamas? They look a little too scary to be llamas.

Hey in the Sparx World were you have to kill the giant catipillar, how do you kill him. I'v played it at least a hundred times and I can never kill him.
I got this in a Crash 'n' Spyro Superpack. It's Spyro: Season of Ice and Crash Bandicoot 2: N-Tranced. The instructions weren't too good, it's just the menu controls and the story for both games. I beat Spyro: Season of Ice (after some excessive cheating 0_o) and Crash Bandicoot 2: N-Tranced up to N-Trance, without cheating.
Look, I know this comes in a super pak with sof, but buy them seperate!!!!!! I purchased the value pak and this one malfunctioned. The music dosn't work!!! It's ssssssssssssssssooooooooooooooooooooooo dull playing with no music. My dad cleaned it but it didn't make a difference. Sof is fine. (sof and soi are together on one cartridge)
Conner Cohan, I think that Spyro is an Artisan(from SPYRO THE DRAGON)because Artisans have slightly curved horns(like Spyro)and Spyro is seen torching sheeps at the beginning of SPYRO THE DRAGON.He could also be Artisan because he started there in SPYRO THE DRAGON.
HEY PEOPLE!!! IT'S ME!!! IT'S JUNIE B. JONES!!! AND SPYRO THE DRAGON IS THE BESTEST GAME EVER!!! EVEN MY BESTEST FRIEND THAT GRACE THINKS SO!!! PLUS I EVEN BEATED HER ON THE Sgt. Byrd BATTLE!!! HOORAY FOR ME!!!
