Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage & Crash Team Racing Demo CD

Spyro is the mischievous hero of this tale, small but full of gumption and always ready for action. He is extremely curious and hardly ever cautious, often getting into trouble.

Sparx is Spyro's companion, whose job is to keep Spyro out of trouble and whose color indicates Spyro's health. He needs to eat butterflies from fodder to maintain his health.

Elora provides tips for navigating the game, finding important items, and will guide you to important portals. If you get lost, she can help you find your way.

Hunter the Cheetah teaches Spyro athletic tricks and new moves essential for the game, and also explains how the controls work. He enjoys contests, so be prepared to compete with him.

The Professor challenges Spyro with brain teasers and offers valuable information to solve Avalar's confusing riddles. Listening to him can sharpen your wits.

Moneybags offers various services, such as opening passages, renting equipment, or teaching moves, all for a price paid with collected gems. His high-priced services are worth the investment.

Zoe is a fairy who saves Spyro's progress by zapping him with her wand, allowing him to return to the last zapped point if defeated. She also provides quick gameplay hints.

To progress to the next Home World, you must defeat one of Ripto's monsters after collecting all necessary talismans. Yellow balls at the bottom of the screen indicate the enemy's hit points, and the Home World opens when all balls disappear.

The game is completed when all worlds are cleared and Ripto is defeated; for a perfect game and special reward, achieve 100% completion in every world in Avalar.

To save a game, press START to pause, then select SAVE GAME; games also auto-save when exiting a realm or selecting EXIT LEVEL/QUIT GAME from the Pause screen.

To load a saved game, insert a MEMORY CARD, turn on the PlayStation, press START on the Title screen, highlight 'Load Game', and then select the desired game.

Use flame and charge attacks, but for tougher enemies, look for power-ups, talk to Avalar residents for ideas, or experiment with move combinations; for very tough enemies, activate power-up weapons like Powerflame by defeating weaker enemies.
