Anyone know any games similar to the Spyro GBA ones? Isometric collectathons? I need more like this. (media.kbin.social)

I wrote an article about the 3 games and just how good they are. Imo, they're extremely underrated. I really wanna play more games similar to it but I can't find much in the way of isometric collectathons(?) at all. Looking for any suggestions. Apologies if this isn't the right spot. GBA is retro right?

Imo, the 3 games are extremely underrated in the Spyro series and feel like completely different games.

Here's the article. It explains more specifically what I mean by these games.

I know there's the main Spyro games but I'm looking for 2D ones, basically the same deal as the Season games.

That looks cool. Not what I'm looking for but interesting. Reminds me a bit of the MegamanEXE games.

Collectathons are just games (usually platformers) where you collect a bunch of stuff. Spyro you got the items in each level, gems, chests, sidequests (that give you items) and so on. There's a lot of stuff to collect. Banjo Kazooie is another collectathon.
