Legend of Spyro, The - A New Beginning — About this game
A New Beginning on DS alternates overhead battles with cinematic flying bosses. Clear enemy groups using breath and melee attacks, and tap protected foes to remove a shield or turn them over before striking. Boss encounters put targets and incoming projectiles on the touch screen, so attack openings and defensive taps compete for attention. Power Crystal puzzles add a quieter task of directing colored light. Begin in the tutorial area, learn targeting and a basic attack, and touch the Save Crystal when entering a new area before moving deeper into the story.
