Fox in space.

For the next game in my Humongous Summer Games 2025 block, I check out Spy Fox 3: Operation Ozone. Hmm... Ozone is sky related... will we see Spy Fox in space?

In the Scottish Highlands, we see Spy Fox... at least trying to play bag pipes. He's not very good at it. After getting past the big dude, Spy Fox finds himself in the Bad Guy's base. A bathroom? Yeah okay. Opening the medicine cabinet reveals Roger Boar who gives me a lipstick which really isn't lipstick. It contains a secret message that I need to deliver to Spy Corps. Spy Fox is also given a rocket powered origami skateboard. Yeah okay I don't know how that's supposed to-it works. It just works. Do not question any logic here. I then go through a goose chase, which includes going through a monkey's fruit stand. And the monkey gets so upset that he bangs a Banana so hard on the ground that it launches into space and turns into a space station that starts spraying this... spray onto Earth. Again, don't question the logic. Just go with it. Turns out the spray is aerosol hair spray and will destroy the Ozone within hours. Spy Fox meets with the chief to deliver the message. Spy Fox overthinks the whereabouts of the message. Turns out the message wasn't on the lipstick container itself. But it was a piece of paper inside the lipstick that had the message. Looks like I have to help a Plato Pushpin. Sounds like he was kidnapped because he knows how to stop the aerosol spray. I am given a song number which I put in a bowling alley jukebox to let me access the mobile command center.

It is believe that Poodles Galore is responsible for the kidnapping of Plato Pushpin. Once again there is a spy gadget vending machine loaded with goodies. One of them being a Bowling Ball which I believe is one of my first to use given I got to the command center from a fucking bowling alley! And yeah I was right as Poodles Galore and her crew are playing a game of Bowling. Looks like they only have one pin to knock down. But it's not a pin. It's Plato Pushpin! I got to save him. But to play with Poodles, I need a Bowling shirt. But not just any Bowling shirt, one that matches their shirt color and has the name of their 4th player. Only then can I rescue Plato Pushpin and take him to the command center. He's working on a congeal pill which will stop the aerosol spray from destroying the Ozone. However, Plato is missing some key items including Chicle, the Aerosol Particle Diameter number, a Prickly Pear Pizza, and Coarse Viridian Beauty-Clay. Yep. It's another fucking scavenger hunt. But I don't think I am surprised at this point. Looks like Poodles has a rocket ship in her factory for me to... "borrow". I am given a key card to access said factory. Once back down on the service, the spy car is delivered to me to access key locations containing the items I need.

Roger Boar is moved to the cosmetics factory to deliver information to Spy Fox, wearing a darling red wig. The pizza joint is open. Conveniently giving away free pizza! Including a Prickly Pear Pizza! Great! That's already one of the items I need! But of course the shop was burglarized just the previous night. And of course they took the damn Prickly Pears. And their only clue left behind was a torn piece of pink cloth. Well that really doesn't help me. After asking info, I find that the prickly pears are left in the desert. Before I take a trip to the desert, I take a trip to the cosmetics factory. I check out the Make-A-Wig exhibit and create myself quite the goofy wig which will come into use later. Well... when it's in the right combination which Roger Boar tells me it's a yellow mullet with a Butterfly accessory. After getting the right wig combo, I find Poodles' rocket. But of course it's guarded. Using a sticky stun bun, I'm able to trap the guards high in the air and take the rock... oh... the door is locked. Thankfully the rocket keys are right inside a nearby safe... that is also locked. Well fuck now what? Well we can listen to some guards... but their voice is muffled. Thankfully professor quack conveniently had a giant listening device. So I pick that up from the vending machine, head back to the factory, find out that the safe combination lock code is Soothing Shaving Bubbles, open the safe, open the rocket, head off into space, note the Aerosol Particle Diameter number on a compact disc, wonder where the fuck Spy Fox got a compact disc, and deliver the CD to Pluto Pushpin. Yes that was a mouthful.

After that, I can set sail in my spy car. First trip, the desert which has a shit load of prickly pears. But of course to be able to access the pears, I have to become a bee keeper. Thankfully, Bea Bear, which yes is the same bear from the other 2 Spy Fox games conveniently has a beekeeper hat. After convincing Bea Bear to let me take the hat, I am given access to the prickly pears! So I take a pear, head back in my car, go back to the streets, head to the pizza parlor and... HOLD UP WHERE THE FUCK IS MY PEAR? Turns out I skipped a cutscene that shows that the X-Ray machine I go through shows I have a prickly pear and that I am not allowed to take the pears past that point. Well shit now what? I thought maybe I could take one of the flowing rafts down the river and ride that. But... I guess not? And no matter what I try seems to work. So I decide to head on down to the lake. Meeting Wet Eddie, I assume the owner of the area. I head inside the Universal Imports area where a creepy ass psychic fortune teller dude greets me. For now it doesn't seem like I can do anything there. So I head out and towards the mining rig. There's an underwater beauty clay map and it seems like in the middle is the coarse viridian clay I need. Good to know for later! Getting past the guard lets me access a lock controller. But I don't have any prior info so I have to head back down.

Heading down is the lake. But Spy Fox won't go in without a swimsuit... clearly. Thankfully there is a scuba suit nearby. But of course I need flippers to be able to obtain the suit. The bowling alley has the flippers I need but of course I can't get them until I give back the missing set of bowling shoes which are in the jungle. But of course I can't get the fucking bowling shoes because they're right in the middle of quick sand which Spy Fox sinks down into. Even after using the granny grappler, I can't hang on and get the shoes. Climbing up the ladder does no good but it does show a set of hieroglyphs on the top of the pyramid. An individual named Trudy Fruit is studying Chicle which is one of the items I need for the congeal pill. The Chicle is locked in the pyramid which can be opened by punching in the correct hieroglyph code and using the ancient amulet of Chiclepichu. Fuck so many fucking rabbit holes dude! It's just stressing me out so I just need to end my progress there for the night. This game is like a straight path that breaks off into a detour into another detour into another detour into another detour into another detour into another detour into another detour into another detour into another detour into another detour into another detour into another detour into another detour into another detour into another detour and so on and so forth.
