'''''Star Fox Adventures''''' (スターフォックスアドベンチャー, ''Sutā Fokkusu Adobenchā'') is a video game for the [[Nintendo GameCube]], and is the third official game in the [[Star Fox (series)|Star Fox series]]. It was developed by [[Rareware]] (later known as [[wikipedia:Rare (company)|Rare]]) and published by [[Nintendo]].
'''''Star Fox Adventures''''' is a video game released on the [[Nintendo GameCube]] in 2002. It is the third game that was released for the [[Star Fox (series)|''Star Fox'' series]]. It was developed by [[Rareware]] and published by [[Nintendo]].


The game is notable for being the first Star Fox game to have on-foot missions, save for the secret on-foot multiplayer mode in ''[[Star Fox 64]]''. The core game play is oriented in a way that it reduces any available [[Arwing]] missions to a mere, although mandatory, arcade mini-game, which makes ''Star Fox Adventures'' radically different from any other Star Fox title, and is so considered the [[wikipedia:Black sheep|black sheep]] of the series. This is mainly due to the game being heavily based on the pre-developed [[Nintendo 64]] title ''[[Dinosaur Planet]]'', an original, unrelated action-adventure game that was supposed to be Rareware classic. ''Star Fox Adventures'' was the major contributor to the reasons behind Rareware's split from Nintendo in 2001, and then becoming acquired by [[wikipedia:Microsoft|Microsoft]].

The core gameplay is oriented in a way that the [[Arwing]] missions are reduced have arcade-based gameplay. ''Star Fox Adventures'' is considered the [[wikipedia:Black sheep|black sheep]] of the series. This is mainly because an irrelevant [[Nintendo 64]] title, ''[[Dinosaur Planet]]'', was cancelled and reworked into this game. ''Star Fox Adventures'' is a major contributor to Rareware's split from Nintendo in 2002, and the resulting [[wikipedia:Microsoft|Microsoft]] acquisition.  


''Star Fox Adventures'' marks as the only Rareware game ever released on the Nintendo GameCube, and the last Rareware game to be released on any Nintendo home console.<!-- This fact is never likely to change based on the way Rare is going nowadays, as even their most devoted fans are forsaking their respects for the company --> ''Star Fox Adventures'' also marks the debut of the [[Krystal]], a Star Fox character whom had been subjected to many kinds of controversies amongst the Star Fox fan community. ''Star Fox Adventures'' is currently the last game in the Star Fox canon which features [[Andross]] as the main antagonist.
Few characters and elements from ''Star Fox Adventures'' would reappear in subsequent ''Star Fox'' titles. The game marks the first appearance of [[Krystal]], who subsequently became a brief member of the Star Fox team, and [[Tricky]], Fox's sidekick in portions of the game.

Fox goes back to Cape Claw to see the SharpClaw attacking a [[LightFoot]] to take his Fire Gem, which he gives to Fox to make the SharpClaw attack him instead. Fox uses this and another Fire Gem to open the way to the [[Ocean Force Point Temple]]. He places the second SpellStone. On his way back, he is captured by the LightFoots, who accuse him of stealing the Fire Gem from the LightFoot at Cape Claw. A CloudRunner fights off the LightFoots until they untie Fox. Fox asks [[Chief LightFoot]] about Krazoa Spirits, and he says there is a Krazoa Shrine in [[LightFoot Village]], but Fox may only enter if he completes the LightFoot Tests. He completes the Tracking Test and the Test of Strength against [[Musclefoot]], and Chief Lightfoot opens the entrance to the third Krazoa Shrine. Fox completes the Test of Fear, gets the third Krazoa Spirit, and releases it at Krazoa Palace.

When Fox returns, a ThornTail's eggs are being stolen, but Fox fights off the eggstealers and the ThornTail opens a magic cave for Fox, and he receives the [[Portal Device]] upgrade. When he talks to the Queen EarthWalker, she says that Tricky's father, the [[King EarthWalker]], has been captured in [[Walled City]]. He is the gatekeeper, but hid his power behind a portal door when he knew the SharpClaw would come for him. Fox opens it with the Portal Device and flies his Arwing to Walled City, which is under attack by the evil [[RedEye]] tribe. He finds the King EarthWalker, who says that the [[King RedEye]] has the third SpellStone, and to enter Fox must place two RedEye teeth in the statues. Fox completes a challenge at the river for the silver RedEye tooth, and gets the Super Ground Quake to destroy the RedEyes and get the gold RedEye tooth. He places the teeth and enters the lair of the RedEye King, and eventually kills him by stabbing him in the head.

Fox takes the third SpellStone to the Volcano Force Point Temple. When he returns, bats attack the ThornTails. Fox fights them off and they give him a Scarab Bag that can carry 200 Scarabs. He buys a SnowHorn Artifact from the store for 130 Scarabs and gives it to a blue SnowHorn that the [[ShopKeeper]] stole the artifact from. The SnowHorn gives Fox a challenge that he completes to open the way to the fourth Krazoa Shrine, where Fox completes the Test of Strength and gets the fourth Krazoa Spirit. After he releases it at Krazoa Palace, the WarpStone tells him that he must go to [[Dragon Rock]], and gives Fox hints as to the gatekeeper's identity: A ThornTail who refused to talk to Fox before. The ThornTail tells Fox that he tried to stop Scales at Dragon Rock, but three of his friends were captured. He opens the gateway to Dragon Rock, a mutated wasteland.

==Development==
''Star Fox Adventures'' was originally developed on the [[Nintendo 64]] by Rareware with the title, ''Dinosaur Planet'', and was not intended to be a ''Star Fox'' title. Krystal would have originally been the protagonist and the adopted child of a wizard-like character named [[Randorn]], alongside another character named [[Sabre]] (who later became Fox). Sabre befriends a young triceratops named Tricky (who was originally the same one from ''Diddy Kong Racing'').
One day, [[Shigeru Miyamoto]] noted the similarities between Sabre and Fox and proposed them to change it to a ''Star Fox'' title. ''Star Fox Adventures'' is the only game Rare released on the Nintendo GameCube, and is their last game released on a Nintendo home console.
