''Star Fox Adventures'' plays similarly to ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time]]''. Its graphics were detailed for its time, and it received particular attention for its real-time fur rendering.{{CitationNeeded}}

''Star Fox Adventures'' is notable for being a departure from the rail-shooter genre that the series had been established upon. Fox moves around Dinosaur Planet and the four SpellStone areas on foot, and the locations are set in three-dimensional environments, where Fox must collect items and solve puzzles as he goes along. There are a few instances where Fox does pilot his [[Arwing]], but only for traveling between the different areas of the planet.


Unlike traditional ''Star Fox'' titles, the gameplay involves Fox going around on foot for most of the game. Fox only pilots his [[Arwing]] to travel between different parts of the planet. In [[ThornTail Hollow]], Fox finds [[Krystal's Staff]] lying in the ground, which he uses for a main weapon (as General Pepper prohibited him from using his Blaster). Fox can acquire [[Staff Upgrade]]s, allowing the Staff to perform various tasks including firing projectiles, freezing enemies, or reaching higher, normally inaccessible locations.
The gameplay is heavily based on ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time]]''. Fox is unable to jump unless he runs off the edge of an object or a cliff, and can roll after landing on the ground, in the same fashion that Link jumps off edges. ''Star Fox Adventures'' also has a day-and-night phase, but a more accurate and gradual one. A key difference with ''Star Fox Adventures'' is that Fox automatically acquires his targets by approaching them, unlike in ''The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time'', where the player must use manual [[zeldawiki:Targeting|targeting]] to lock-on their target.

''Star Fox Adventures'' also has a day-and-night phase, but a more accurate and gradual one. One key difference between the gameplay of each game is that Fox can now automatically acquires his targets from approaching them, unlike in ''Ocarina of Time'', where the player must manually trigger a lock-on when controlling Link.


In [[ThornTail Hollow]], the hub location on Dinosaur Planet itself, Fox finds [[Krystal's Staff]] sticking out of the ground. After pulling it out, Fox uses staff for his main weapon during the rest of his adventure (as General Pepper prohibited him from using his Blaster). The staff itself is mostly used in combat, but with [[Staff Upgrade]]s, Fox can use the Staff to perform additional tasks, including firing projectiles, freezing enemies, or boosting up to higher areas.
