Your ultimate guide to beating Jacques, collecting all gems, and navigating Gnasty's World in Spyro the Dragon. Get ready for the final challenge!

Alright, we're getting close to the end! After all that adventuring, we're finally at Part 45. We've got a boss fight and the entrance to Gnasty's World to cover.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First, after grabbing those scattered red gems, you'll find Revilo just before the Jacques battle. He's got a funny line about aiming high but watching out for boxes.
  2. 2
    Now, for Jacques! This guy's Gnasty's servant and throws boxes at you. When you get close, he'll fly off. Chase him up the stairs and onto the first platform.
  3. 3
    He'll be on a box thingy, throwing smaller boxes. Jump and flame him quickly to make him move on.
  4. 4
    Jump up the platform and onto the ledge where he'll run again. Jump up the next platform and onto the ledge, then glide to the next island.
  5. 5
    He'll fly onto another cube platform – jump and flame him again. A platform will raise; jump up there and glide over to the whirlwind platform.
  6. 6
    Let the whirlwind take you to Jacques. Approach him, and he'll fly off again. Glide to the platform ahead that lowers, then do one final glide to Jacques. He'll throw boxes really fast here, so try a curved glide, but don't overdo it or you'll hit the lava and have to restart!
  7. 7
    One last flame for victory! You'll get 75 gems. This was probably the hardest boss, but you handled it!
  8. 8
    After the fight, jump onto the platform, turn around, and glide to the whirlwind platform. It'll take you to the last 75 gems before the exit. Grab them all!
  9. 9
    You've now collected 500/500 gems in this level and 2500/2500 in the world. Level and World Complete!
  10. 10
    Outside, turn right and go along the bridge. Talk to the balloonist. If you have at least 6000 gems, he'll fly you to Gnasty's World.
  11. 11
    Welcome to Gnasty's World! This is the final area, and it's short but can be tough. This part of the walkthrough covers collecting the 3500 gems and freeing the 6 dragons here.
  12. 12
    You'll land in 'Gnorc Nexus', a short homeworld level. Grab 20 gems between the purple and green dragon heads, then 8 gems between the purple and yellow ones. Smash the three wooden chests for 15 gems.
  13. 13
    Continue around the platform to the bridge with the balloonist. Grab 7 gems across it. Finally, smash the three metal chests for 15 gems.
  14. 14
    You'll see Delbin here again. He'll mention you're ready to face Gnasty Gnorc and how to access his portal. The other dragons in this world were freed before but got trapped again.
  15. 15
    The balloonist here just takes you to previously visited areas. The dragon heads cover other levels. You need to beat 'Gnorc Cove' to open the first portal to its left.
