However, his spell misfires, and the dragonflies, including Spyro's dragonfly companion, Sparx, are scattered throughout the Dragon Realms. However, during the party, Ripto (who appears to have survived the events of Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage! (proven by the epilogues of this and the following game) teleports in via a portal and disrupts the celebration, intent on capturing all the dragonflies in order to weaken the young dragons.

The generation of young dragons, whom Spyro recently saved from the Sorceress' clutches, are about to celebrate a rite of passage: the assignment of their newly arrived dragonfly guardians. The game's story begins shortly after the death of Sorceress in Spyro: Year of the Dragon. For example, to go to Cloud 9, Spyro must ride a whirlwind up into the clouds. Lastly, portals have been replaced with other methods of transportation to the individual realms. The typical speedway layout stays fundamentally the same as Year of the Dragon, without the Hunter Challenge. In this game, Speedways no longer appear as individual levels, but instead are added onto realms, accessible via Challenge Portals. However, Spyro can man several vehicles: Hunter's Manta Ray and the UFO's make a return appearance from Year of the Dragon, alongside two new vehicles, the tank and the Spitfire attack plane. Furthermore, unlike its prequel, sequel, and the Spyro: Advance games, the only playable character is Spyro. The layout of each realm is similar to those past. Gameplay is similar to the previous three console games. Even if the name is similar to the last console game created by Etranges Libellules, the development was completely independent.Unlike the previous Spyro games, Enter the Dragonfly has only one homeworld, with nine attached realms. This episode is the last one of the trilogy. They also can glide a bit in order to reach far platforms. Each dragon has 4 types of breath linked to specific elements (fire, poison, ice, etc.). The game is story driven with a lot of scripted sequences inside the levels. There are also flying sequences which are played like Space Harrier. This new episode of Spyro is mainly a platformer with a bit of exploration. Spyro and Cynder will meet friends such has Ignitus the red dragon and Hunter the panther who will help them during their quest. They will travel together through catacombs, forests, a dragon city and wastelands to defeat Malfor the great black dragon who seeks to destroy the world. Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon on mobile phones follows the plot of the previous mobile episodes.
