Missing gems in cliff town?

If you are there are two main reasons why you could be:

1. You did not flame all the pots which those ladies are cooking food in.

2. You have not gotten the gems behind the entry area. To get these fly to the island and go right to the very top. Look where the entrance building is and fly behind it. At first it may look as if you are flying into thin air and you will die, but if you keep on gliding you will land and will be able to pick up the gems.

If you are still struggling, look out for the small red flag, behind that flag should be 8 red gems and 1 purple one worth 25, so that could be the 33 you are looking for.


Unlockables

During gameplay pause the game and enter the following codes at the 'Inventory' menu to unlock the corresponding effect.

Unlock Level Select:

Press Square, Square, Circle, Square, Left, Right, Left, Right, Circle, Up, Right, Down. Then go to the Balloonist to select any level in the game.

Finding Missing Gems in Cliff Town

Play through the level normally but make sure as you do you kill everything that is in the way. This means flaming every single pot available, just in case you miss one. Then scour the area around the exit, down in one of the areas between buildings, and in any other obscure places. If you still have missing Gems after that position yourself on the area across from the cliff and look over there. If you see a sparkle you will know there is a Gem you can go and get. If that still doesn't work you will need to go to the top of the cliff and look around for a sparkle from there, making sure you check over the rooftops again. If that fails take another look around the entrance including the line behind it.


Unlock Bonus Level

When you have collected ALL the gems in every level you will access a bonus level.


Easy to find Gems

Check out the following areas in Spyro the Dragon to find some easy gems you may have missed.

Artisans - Stone Keepers

If you go to the field filled with Rams and Shepherds and take the Whirlwind up to the top of the tower in the middle and then spin the camera around you will be able to spot a Red Gem and a Chest with a Blue Gem behind where Spyro landed.

Artisans - Dark Hollow

You will be able to find 10 Gems by opening the Strong Chest at the start of the level. If you have left the level you will need to pick up the key again.

Artisans - Toasty

You will be able to find 11 Gems in this level by going into the side-room on the left side of the interior section.

Peacekeepers - Ice Cavern

Finding the Key in Stone Hill

When you enter Stone Hill head into the door located over a mound and slightly to the right of the well. This will be directly in front of Spyro when you spawn into the area. It is important that you remember this location as you will return to it later. Now head to the right and out the door and you will come upon the return home portal. Instead of going into the return home portal, jump over the edge located directly behind it. You will now find some Gems in the sand to the right that will lead you to a small cave. The Stone Hill chest key can be found in the middle of the cave. There will also be a few smaller chests there.


Secret Level

Collect ALL of the gems to get 100% ending. Then when you go to Gnasty's World and approach the green dragon head it will open to allow access to Gnasty's Loot bonus level.


Fly Faster in Flight Levels

In the timed flight levels you will find that you can fly faster by flying lower to the ground. The difference is slight but it is enough to shave some time off in these levels.

Smash up stones shot at you

On the dry canyon level there are those Gnorc guys that shoot big stones at you through bazooka like things.

When ones coming towards you charge at it and when you hit it you will break it.


A Few Things You Might Want To Know...

1. How to get to the dragon on the island on Tree Tops.

Yes, this dragon can get you confused. Use the supercharge to follow the thief that goes to that island. Keep following it until you get to the ramp on the side which has no charge arrows on it. Keep running, then jump and finish in a glide. You should reach the island.

2. How to get to a dragon and key on a ledge in Dry Canyon.

You may have been through the tunnel and room, and ended up on a ledge, right? Well, glide left off of that ledge and you will end up on the dragon and key.

3. How to reach the pillars in Wizard Peak.

Do you get off the ramp and never seem to make the jump? Try using two supercharge ramps instead of just one.

4. Just what is that last portal?

Gnasty's Loot..

My hint is that if you are in big head mode the fire is way better, and tyou can get spyro in a football jacket, I just do not know how to yet. Also do not go in water.


Spooky real

To get the last dragon and gems in haunted towers, run down the super ramp, jump back to the bit going to the whirlymagigger, glide over to the new sticky out bit.

(after running up ramp), go up the whirlymagigger, run round to the >,run up the stairs, run past all knights, kill wizard, bust door, kiss fairy ( and receave superflame that lasts until you leave!)

Then bust all the knights!

ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!
