Aku Aku/Uka Uka Hints, But It’s The Elder Dragons...
Nestor: *appears in front of Spyro* Welcome to the Adventure Arena, Spyro. Here, you can travel around this area and practice your driving skills. On this map, the dots, and stars represent warp pads that’ll lead you to races. If they’re flashing, they signify that they are accessible to play. Drive on to an active warp pad, and it’ll take you to the track’s starting line. Then win a trophy by finishing in first place. The more trophies you collect, the more tracks that’ll be available to you. Good luck on your quest, Spyro. *flies off*
Delbin: *appears in front of Spyro* Hold on there, Spyro! You can’t access this track yet! Do you see the number of trophies that are required to enter that track? To access a new track, you must first collect a number of trophies that meets the requirement to activate the warp pad. And in order to win trophies, you must come in first place in other tracks that are opened. *flies off*
Argus: *appears in front of Spyro* The boss is through this garage. However, you’re not ready to face it yet, Spyro. You can access the garage once you’ve won all four races of this area. *flies off*
Lateef: *appears in front of Spyro* I’m terribly sorry, Spyro. But I’m afraid you don’t have all four boss keys to open this door. Beat each boss of the four areas to get a key. Once you have all four, you can take on Oxide. *flies off*
Titan: *appears in front of Spyro* In order to unlock this door to the next world, you need a boss key. You can challenge the boss once you’ve won all four races of a certain area. Beat the boss in a race, and the key will be your reward. *flies off*
Tomas: *appears in front of Spyro* Congratulations, Spyro! You’ve unlocked a new area! Here, you will find four more new tracks to race. Good luck! *flies off*
Kelvin: *appears in front of Spyro* Remember that not all doors can be unlocked with just one key. You’ll need two boss keys to unlock this door. After winning all four races in an area, defeat the boss in the race and earn that key. *flies off*
Lindar: *appears in front of Spyro* In each of the world sections, you’ll find and come across a load-save screen. There’s approximately five of them. To load or save your progress, drive closely towards the screen and come to a complete stop, then follow the directions. *flies off*
Gildas: *appears in front of Spyro* Spyro, my friend! Here’s a hint on Hang Time. In order to get a turbo from hang time, you do that by jumping. The longer you’re in the air, the bigger the turbo you’ll get when you land. For the biggest turbo, get extra air time by hopping off jumps using the Jump button. *flies off*
Devlin: *appears in front of Spyro* Greetings, Spyro. Did you know that you can go faster through turns by power sliding? To access a power slide, press and hold the Jump button while turning hard. *flies off*
Oswin: *appears in front of Spyro* Psst! Spyro, wanna know a secret? You can get a turbo boost while power sliding. To get that turbo boost, wait until the smoke turns black from your exhaust then press the Boost button. Don’t wait too long because if you do, you’ll miss your chance for a boost. *flies off*
Cedric: *appears in front of Spyro* To get around tight turns or face quickly at a direction you’re heading, press and hold the Brake button while turning hard to perform a brake slide. *flies off*
Lyle: *appears in front of Spyro* Hey there, Spyro. When you’re collecting wumpa fruits on the track, your speed increases. Once you have all 10 wumpa fruits collected, you’ll be juiced up and your power-ups will become even more powerful to use. *flies off*
Boris: *appears in front of Spyro* When you get a TNT crate stuck on top of your noggin, start hopping immediately. If you react fast and hop enough times, the TNT crate will fall off of you before it explodes. *flies off*
Zander: *appears after Spyro enters a warp pad* Collect all the crystals that are scattered around in the arena. Once you have all of them, you’ll receive a special prize. *flies off*
Lucas: *appears after Spyro enters a warp pad* Collect the three letters - C, T, and R, on each track and finish in first place to win the CTR Token. Beware, for some of the letters are hard to find. *flies off*
Gavin: *appears in front of Spyro* Hey, Spyro! Have you been collecting CTR Tokens? Each one has a different color. If you collect all four CTR Tokens that represents this color, you can enter the gem cup. Score the most points in four races of a cup, and win a gem! *flies off*
Cosmos: *appears in front of Spyro* In order to access a secret track, you must first collect a number of relics that is required for it to be available to race. *flies off*
Bubba: *appears after Spyro enters a warp pad* Get the lowest time you can by smashing time crates and racing full speed! The clock will freeze in just a few seconds every time you hit a time crate. If you achieve a time that’s low enough, you will receive a relic. *flies off*
