The game received mostly positive reviews, notably for its detailed graphics, new designs of characters including Fox, and its dynamic environments. However, the voice acting and the departure from the traditional ''Star Fox''-style gameplay received criticism.
Gameplay

mode, provided that their console is hooked up to a television set that has widescreen capabilities.
The game's story focuses on two different styles of gameplay which the player switches between at various points.
The first style of gameplay is Adventure Mode, which is the main mode, and operates in a similar manner to that of ''
The Legend of Zelda
''The Legend of Zelda'' is an action-adventure game franchise created by the Japanese game designers Shigeru Miyamoto and Takashi Tezuka. It is primarily developed and published by Nintendo, although some portable installments and re-rele ...
'' series, especially ''
Ocarina of Time''.
In this mode, players control the game's protagonist as they explore thirteen different locations on foot, each of which unlocks when the player completes a specific task or acquires a new requisite skill, in order to progress the story.
[ Some of the gameplay mechanics are similar in fashion to those in the ''Zelda'' games: ''Adventures'' has a form of currency called Scarabs, that can be used to purchase healing items, new equipment, and maps of the various locations; the main character's health is divided into hearts consisting of four segments and vaguely resembling fox heads, with the player beginning with three hearts and earning a new one after completing key stages of the story; the character can climb ladders and ledges, swim, and jump between platforms, but cannot freely jump themselves; some areas require the player to solve a puzzle to acquire something or move on; and the game features a day-and-night phase, though this is more gradual than in ''Zelda'' games.]
The main character comes equipped with a staff after the initial stages of the game, which functions as both a weapon, and a tool for exploration and puzzle-solving. Combat is mainly melee-orientated, with players locking-on to an enemy upon moving in close. Once in combat, an enemy's health is displayed as a heart icon above them, with players able to strafe and roll around a target to dodge attacks, while using the staff to either block incoming strikes, or attack an enemy. As a tool, the staff can be used to open containers, operate mechanisms, or lift up stones to uncover hidden caves and boulders to find items. As the player progress in the story, the staff can be upgraded with powers that can help in combat or assist in solving puzzles and exploring locations, including the ability to fire projectiles at enemies or trigger switches, and a special jump ability to reach places that are inaccessible through normal methods. However, using such powers requires magical energy, which the player can recover by retrieving special crystals from the environment. Along with the staff, the player also has a sidekick that joins them after a certain stage of the story, who can help by finding them items and using certain abilities to open up new areas. Such abilities, referred to as tricks, require the player to feed them with special mushrooms, with each one constituting one trick that can be performed, with the sidekick able to perform a maximum of six tricks when fully fed before needing more mushrooms. The game's inventory system focuses on three areas - collectibles, staff powers, and Tricky abilities - with the player able to use three scanner systems in the game - a mini-map of a region (provided a map has been purchased first), a scanner to give information on objects in that are approached, and a fuel cell radar.
The second style of gameplay is Arwing Mode, and functions in a similar manner to other games in the ''Star Fox

. Upon choosing a destination, the player engages in an on-rail segment, in which players dodge obstacles while shooting down enemies, with the ability to fly through silver rings to recover some health, and being able to use super-bombs to eliminate groups of enemies. In order to visit a place, the player must fly through a set number of gold rings; each segment has around 10 gold rings, and the player will need to fly through more to reach later areas, or be forced to repeat the segment. In addition, the player must also acquire a certain amount of fuel cells during Adventure Mode, before they can use the Arwing to travel somewhere. Once they reached the area once, Fuel Cells are not consumed to travel to the place again.

Story
Eight years after Andross' first defeat, Krystal investigates the destruction of her home planet, Cerinia, and the death of her parents. Receiving a distress call from Krazoa Palace, Krystal discovers that it was attacked by General Scales and the SharpClaw army. Krystal is persuaded by a wounded EarthWalker in the Palace to collect the Krazoa Spirits and return them to the palace, which would supposedly tilt the war in the dinosaurs' favour and stop Scales. After releasing the first one, however, a mysterious being sends Krystal into the spirit's path, trapping her in a floating crystal atop the palace until all the spirits can be returned.
Meanwhile, on the edge of the Lylat System, General Pepper contacts the Star Fox Team, asking them to investigate the invasion of the Dinosaur Planet. Since the team are desperate for money and maintenance, team leader Fox McCloud agrees to take a look, arriving unarmed at Pepper's request to avoid trouble with the locals. On the planet's surface, Fox obtains and wields the magic staff which Krystal lost earlier. Fox learns from the Queen of the EarthWalker Tribe that Scales stole four Spellstones from the planet's two Force Point Temples. Resolving to prevent the planet from breaking up further and restore it to its original unity, Fox traverses the planet and retrieves the stones to the temples, with the help of the Queen's son, Prince Tricky. As Fox retrieves the stones, he discovers that he must also retrieve the other five Krazoa Spirits to repair the planet and save Krystal. When Fox finds the last spirit, he discovers that it is guarded by Scales himself. However, just as Fox and Scales engage in combat, a mysterious voice orders Scales to surrender the spirit, to which he reluctantly agrees. Fox takes the spirit to the Krazoa Shrine and frees Krystal.
The spirits are forced into the head of a Krazoa statue, which reveals itself to be the revived Andross, the mastermind behind the spirit scheme, who flies off to resume his conquest of the Lylat System. When Falco Lombardi arrives in space, he helps Fox destroy Andross once again, restoring and repairing the Krazoa spirits to the planet. Afterwards, Falco rejoins the Star Fox team and Krystal is recruited into the team beginning a romance with her and Fox.

'' toward the end of the Nintendo 64's lifespan.[ The game was changed many times during early development before Rare settled on the eventual idea of an open world adventure-game based around two interwoven stories.][ According to Kevin Bayliss, a lead developer for the game for Rare, ''Dinosaur Planet'' was originally to feature Timber, the tiger character from ''Diddy Kong Racing'', as that game was originally planned to be ''RC Pro-Am 64'' and featuring Timber until Nintendo suggested them to work it into the ''Donkey Kong'' intellectual property. They set Timber as a time-traveler into a prehistoric world in gameplay similar to '' The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time''. As they developed the game, they found it better to shift the main character to two separate ones, Sabre the wolf and Krystal the fox, forgoing Timber's appearance.] Eventually, the plot for ''Dinosaur Planet'' concerned Sabre and Krystal, along with sidekicks Tricky and Kyte (who both appear in the finished game), and Randorn, a wizard who was Sabre's father and Krystal's adoptive father (who was dropped entirely). The game featured elements such as the 'SwapStone', which would let the player switch between Krystal and Sabre. ''Dinosaur Planet'' was intended to be Rare's last game for the Nintendo 64 and was adorned with gameplay and cinematics introduced by ''Ocarina of Time''. ''Dinosaur Planet'' initially utilised the Nintendo 64's Expansion Pak and was housed in a 512-megabit
The megabit is a multiple of the unit bit for digital information. The prefix mega (symbol M) is defined in the International System of Units (SI) as a multiplier of 106 (1 million), and therefore

Just prior to E3 2000, Nintendo asked Rare to keep discussion of ''Dinosaur Planet'' quiet and arranged a meeting with Rare to see about a "marriage" of ''Dinosaur Planet'' and ''Star Fox'' during the event. The two agreed to the idea of ''Star Fox Adventures: Dinosaur Planet'' as a Nintendo 64 game, maintaining as much of Rare's work. Bayliss, Tossel, and Lee Schuneman later met with Nintendo in Japan in the weeks that followed to further discuss how to merge the properties, such as bringing Fox McCloud and the other ''Star Fox'' characters into the game, adjusting the art style of the other characters of ''Dinosaur Planet'' to match, and developing a story to fit into the ''Star Fox'' canon.
The team later realised the potential of using the ''Star Fox'' licence in hopes of boosting awareness, and switch development from the Nintendo 64 to the then-upcoming GameCube console as a launch game

. Sabre was dropped in favor of Fox McCloud as the lead, but the game retains certain original ''Dinosaur Planet'' characters such as Krystal and Tricky. Rare staff had originally pondered on whether they would retain the character of Krystal for the final game, but Imamura, who had been brought on as a supervisor and producer for the project, convinced the team to keep her and even illustrated her final design, which was much more sexualized and revealing than the original ''Dinosaur Planet'' appearance. According to Imamura, he and Miyamoto were looking to add "sex appeal" to the ''Star Fox'' franchise, as Miyamoto wanted the series to have mature elements where possible, and that Krystal's new design was inspired by Vampirella

David Wise used Peter Siedleczek's Advanced Orchestra library in creating the music for ''Star Fox Adventures''. Wise said the tracks that reference the music for the previous ''Star Fox'' games came very late in development, after having converted it into ''Star Fox Adventures''.
In February 2021, a late development version of ''Dinosaur Planet'' for the Nintendo 64 dated December 2000 was leaked online, having been acquired from a collector in Sweden. The build features a unique model for Fox instead of Sabre, indicating that Miyamoto's intervention happened before the decision was made to transition the game to GameCube.

Though mostly positively reviewed, ''Star Fox Adventures'' is often criticised for its gameplay and setting being too much of a departure from the other ''Star Fox'' games, in favor of the ''Zelda'' style gameplay. Casamassina said that "fans expecting a true ''Star Fox'' experience akin to the older games are in for a disappointment". He also added that the ''Star Fox'' license has been utilised sparingly to the point where the game felt "out of place within the confines of the ''Star Fox'' game universe". Casamassina asserted that Fox was "clearly only on 'Dinosaur Planet' at Nintendo's request, not because he belongs". ''NGC Magazine'' similarly expressed concern on why Fox was added to the game, adding that ''Adventures'' was "one game Fox himself would probably want to forget" and further speculating that Nintendo only added the ''Star Fox'' license to prevent ''Dinosaur Planet'' from appearing on the Xbox.
