Unlike the rest of the guide, these Trips and Tricks are provided here as they apply to all three games in the Reignited Trilogy. Here you'll find tips and tricks for all three games within the Spyro Reignited Trilogy.

Go behind buildings, investigate any corners in case they go further back than you think, and look down every gap, just in case.
In all three remakes, Sparx has the ability to point directly to the nearest Gem in the level, which helps narrow down Gem hunts. Press down the left analog stick to use it.
If you're still stumped, we have an Easy to Miss Gems section to help you locate the more devious Gems.
Gems can be hidden by the GrassIn addition to the above tip, the most common way of missing Gems in Reignited is not even seeing them due to the long grass. This particularly affects players of the original game who are used to hoovering up every Gem in sight without needing to search for them. To that end, make sure to search through the long grass, even in caves which sometimes feature dry brown grass.
Turn on the MinimapThe Minimap is a neat little feature originally exclusive to Spyro 2, but has now been expanded to all three games in Reignited and can be activated in the Pause Menu. Using it, you can get a quick layout of the level, which can be handy if you're missing a bunch of collectibles and need to find a place in the level you haven't been to yet. If you're playing Spyro 2, the level exit will always be marked with a Red Dot, while any Orb Challenges you find will be marked with a Green Dot.
Learn how to master GlidingGliding is one of the core moves in Spyro's arsenal, and it's essential to learn how to get the most out of them so you'll be comfortable getting through the levels. As the Dragons and Hunter will teach you early in the games, holding down the Jump button will have Spyro jump higher, and pressing Jump again at the top of Spyro's highest jump will give him the maximum possible Glide distance.
On top of this ability is the Hover in the second and third games, performed by pressing the Look Button during a Glide. In addition to giving a fancy landing, Hovering gives Spyro a vertical boost in the air. Use this to make Glides that would normally be just short of success.
In the first game however, pressing the button for Hover will instead Drop Spyro straight down, cancelling his Glide. While this may seem useless, it does allow the player to prevent Spyro from overshooting platforms he's Gliding to. You can drop earlier than you think, so use Spyro's shadow to judge where he's going to land when you use the Drop move.
Use Charge Jumps to extend your GlidesEven better than Hovering is the Charge Jump. An "unwritten" move, you can further extend your Glide if you Charge before Jumping and Gliding. Doing this allows Spyro to initiate his Glide much further forward than normal, effectively adding an extra Hover to the Glide. This can help make even the hardest of gaps trivial, perfect if you can't quite get the hang of it.
Learn how to deal with Large and Armored EnemiesThe three Spyro games feature three main classes of enemies: Small, Large and Armored. Each has a different approach: Small enemies can be attacked with either Charge or Flame, Large enemies cannot be Charged, and Armored enemies can't be Flamed.
Occasionally however, you'll come across enemies that are both Armored and Large, and seemingly unkillable. However, the game will always provide you with a means to defeat them. Sometimes they have unarmored backs vulnerable to your Flame Attack. Sometimes the level will have a spot that lets you use Supercharge or Super Flame, which can kill these enemies. And sometimes there's a way to shrink them down so you can Charge them. Check the level thoroughly to find a method to take them down.
Tips for opening Sealed ChestsSimilar to the Large Armored enemy problem, in many levels you can find Sealed Chests, large metal chests that have no padlock and cannot be Flamed or Charged, seemingly invulnerable. These sturdy objects do have their limits however: you can use a nearby cannon or Rocket to break them open, or use Supercharge or Superflame to make them burst and spill the goods. Look around the level for these as there's always a way to beak open Sealed Chests.
Revisit old levels after unlocking new moves and charactersIn Spyro 2 and Year of Dragon, Spyro is able to unlock either characters or abilities that open up new areas, allowing the player to access Gems, Orbs and Eggs Spyro normally couldn't. In Spyro 2, Spyro can learn the Swimming, Climbing and Headbash moves from Moneybags, while in Year of the Dragon, he can free four side-characters with their own dedicated sections of the levels.
Because of this, many levels cannot be cleared 100% on your first visit, even if you do everything possible up until then. If you can't collect everything, try coming back later with a new ability in hand or a new side-character freed.
