STARFOX ADVENTURES

 Eight years have passed since the Lylat Wars (StarFox 64) and the Star Fox team has hit a drought in activities resulting in the degradation of equipment. The Arwing's have suffered a serious degrade along with the Great Fox and ROB is even falling apart. Falco, tired with the non-exciting activity left the team, and now the remaining members sit around hoping for the day that General Pepper contacts them for something big.

 Meanwhile, a girl named Krystal sets out after she finds a distress signal emanating from the Krazoa Palace, located on Sauria. She has been on a life-long quest to find out the truth behind her parents death and hopes to learn of it during her venture to the Krazoa Palace. Her trek is interrupted by a surprise attack by General Scales, however in the end she ultimately escapes and makes it to the Krazoa Palace. There she learns that General Scales has attacked and seeks to capture the six Krazoa Spirits. After she retrieves the first spirit, she releases it unto the palace, and is yet again attacked by an unseen stalker, who prevails in capturing her in a crystal prison and trapping her power. Sauria then begins to fall apart.

 With this unbalance in the Lylat System, the Star Fox team receives a transmission from General Pepper asking for their help once again. Jumping on the opportunity Fox sets out and travels to Sauria. He ventures across the vast planet and soon learns of the Krazoa, Krystal's entrapment, and of General Scales plot from the Krazoa God. With the help of Prince Tricky, son of the King and Queen EarthWalker tribe, they set out and collect the remaining Krazoa Spirits to restore Sauria and release Krystal from her entrapment. Things however begin to go wrong when all six spirits are released, and Fox will have to stop a newborn threat from wreaking havoc all across Lylat.

TRIVIA

-StarFox Adventures refers to Sauria as Dinosaur Planet. This is because the name 'Sauria' never actually existed until StarFox Assault.

-StarFox Adventures was never originally intended to be a Star Fox game. It started out as an independent game by the name of Dinosaur Planet. It wasn't until Shigeru Miyamoto stepped in and noticed the male lead character resembling a close connection to Fox McCloud, that the game would then be turned into a Star Fox title.

-The game was originally being developed for the N64, but due to the imminent release of the Gamecube, was then redesigned for the Gamecube.
