 Star Fox Adventures - GameCritics.com
Star Fox doesn't shake the tree that has firmly rooted a successful adventure title since the days of the original The Legend Of Zelda.
Fox travels to some forest or temple or other area of epic nature, learns of some crystal or spellstone or some artifact that must be collected to procede with the story and follows a series of puzzles to reach that goal.
Star Fox pulls this off with finesse, however we're talking about a franchise that has shafted its roots and latched on to another form of gameplay.

Taking on the role of the fearless Star Fox leader, your mission is to save the planet from the clutches of the malevolent tyrant General Scales and his equally ill-disposed Sharpclaw troops.
The context-sensitive A button is used to perform the majority of Fox's actions, including talking to characters, picking up items, attacking enemies, and giving orders to Tricky, while the B button is generally used to cancel actions and putting away his weapon.
These stages, which should be familiar to adept Star Fox veterans, retain the graphical feel of Star Fox 64 but with a greater level of complexity and detail, all while still running at a blisteringly smooth 60fps.

 Gamebits: Star Fox Adventures
Star Fox Adventures, Nintendo's latest GameCube offering, is similar in origin, having originally been designed by Rare as a Nintendo 64 game called Dinosaur Planet.
Fox himself must also be willing to adapt as he finds himself astride various dinosaurs, and back in the pit of his own Arwing vessel, piloting to new regions of Dinosaur Planet.
Star Fox Adventures could've filled that gap, but with juvenile sidekicks and (admittedly funny) jokes aplenty, it's far from it.

 Star Fox Adventures - Reviews - Stratos Group
Star Fox Adventures puts you in the role of Fox McCloud, the wisecracking vulpine star of the previous Star Fox games who bears more than a slight resemblance to Michael J. Fox.
Star Fox Adventures will take you about 15 hours to finish and that’s not likely a 15 hours you’ll be wanting to spend again any time soon.
Star Fox is a good game in many respects and a bad game in others, which kind of rounds out to a slightly above-average game all-around.

So Fox is dispatched to Dinosaur Planet without any weapons, but due to a large stroke of luck Fox finds a powerful staff that had been dropped by Krystal during her kidnapping within a few seconds of getting there.
Well not in Star Fox there is no jump button to be found anywhere, but there is a large amount of jumping to be done.

 IGN: GameCube Review
The story goes that Fox McCloud and his team have been called to Dinosaur Planet, which is being pulled apart by ancient forces at the very core of his planet.
Noteworthy is the fact that Fox is a mercenary; he undertakes this task for his own monetary gain, not for the good of his health.
Anyway, Fox becomes embroiled in a battle to save Dinosaur Planet from the evil General Scales, and the rest is pretty standard fare as plots go.

In both of the original games, the player, as Fox, was hired by General Pepper of the planet of Corneria to take down the mad scientist Andross, who was responsible for the death of Fox's father, James McCloud.
Fox finds a Magic Staff, which is his main weapon and can be enchanted to shoot fire, rocket upwards, etc. Most of the game is spent this way, with the occasional puzzle thrown in, like mazes, some "Shoot this spot" puzzles, and so on.
The Great Fox (Star Fox's Mother Ship) and the Arwings (Star Fox's Fighter Jets), which were white and polished in the original games, are now gray, dark, and dirty, showing the state of poorness Team Star Fox has fallen into.
