Your comparison of Spyro to various N64 platformers left out one very important detail: you don't get to be a *dragon* in Mario 64

True...

I always admired the design of Spyro. Clearly targeting both audiences with a purple dragon who is Male.

Quite bold of them really and definitely stands out from the dirge, I just dont find them engaging. Sorry if I offended any spyro fans! My daughter is still loving the trilogy.

it would be great if minecraft apk also had good music like Sound of Play 263
