PrinceWatercress plays Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage! - Part 3 of 27

In this episode, we complete Colossus, then go back to Summer Forest and explore some more.

Colossus (continued)

You'll notice a steel box that you won't be able to destroy with either your flame or your ram attack. You'll have to find a little rocket, flame it, and then send it careening into the steel box to release the gems inside. Thankfully, the rocket is nearby on top of a building, but you'll need to activate the Superjump gate to get to it first.

After getting the talisman, we continue our adventures in Colossus with...hockey. Go through the now-broken windows, go towards the ice and you'll come across an ice skating rink. This is where you'll get the other two orbs. The first one just has you pitted against the goalie. To control the puck, skate up to it and you'll pick it up with your mouth like you would the rocks. You can either move into the goal or spit the puck into the goal to score a point, and you have two minutes to score five goals.

The second one involves a blue hockey player. This time around, you'll have a goalie of your own (the red goalie) and you not only have to score five goals, you have to make sure the red guy doesn't score either. It is possible to score an "own goal," so watch out. You can flame the red guy to get the puck away from him and also mess him up. Yeah, your flame works as a tackle. It's pretty nice.

After you get both of these orbs, you can play hockey as long as you want while you're still in the level. It's pretty nice.

Summer Forest

Now we go back to Moneybags for the swim move, which costs 500 gems. About time.

The deep pool near Glimmer has a secret passage at the bottom. Go through the tunnel and you'll surface at a secret area at the other side. The staircase leads to an orb.

Orbs

Colossus

1. Near the exit portal is a Superjump power-up. Use it to get on top of the building across from it to find the Professor. You'll scare an evil spirit away, only to have it inhabit the Buddha statues that inhabit the level. There are ten of them in all, and after you flame every one of them to ward off the evil spirit, you'll get an orb from the Professor.

2. Score 5 times in two minutes against the goalie.

3. You need to get #2 to do this one. Score five times in the red goal (this time against an actual opponent) to receive another orb.

Skill Points

Note: If you collect enough of these, you'll unlock the Epilogue when you beat the game. There are 16 in all.

Colossus

Perfect in Hockey: If you beat the other hockey player 5-0, you'll get an extra life and a Skill Point.
