Boxes / 0----------------------------------------------------------------------------0 The boxes in the game are you're main target in the game because they will give you wumpa fruit, more hitpoints, Extra lifes and sometimes a bonus token. Just so you know here is a brief description of what wumpa fruit is. A brief description of Wumpa fruit ---------------------------------- Wumpa fruit is the local delicacy of Crash Bandicoot's world. You can get them from nearly all the boxes in the game. Once you accumilate 100 wumpa fruit you will gain a new life, so if you think about it there is about 150 wumpa fruit on each level so that is 3 lives every 2 levels. So it is advised to get all the wumpa fruit you can find. ----- Now that we have done that I will now tell you what all the boxes in the game look like and what you can get from them. --------- Blank box --------- This box is just blank with no picture on it, it is one of the most common boxes in the game. You will always get one piece of wumpa fruit when you break them. ------------------ Question mark box ------------------ This box will be like a blank box but instead it will have a yellow question mark on it. This mean that when you open it you will get a random thing like 10 pieces of wumpa fruit to a bonus token. ---------- Aku Aku ---------- This box will have a picture of a brown mask with multicolour feathers on top. Every time you break one of these boxes you will recieve one more hitpoint due to the protecton of Aku Aku. --------- 1 up box --------- This box has a picture of Crash on the front of it. When you break it you will recieve an extra life. -------------------- Exclamation mark box --------------------- Ths box looks like a metal box with a exlamation mark on it. Once you spin it, it will make transparent boxes that you could not break breakable. --------- Arrow box --------- This box looks like a normal box but has a arrow on it. Use it to get to new heights to reach new items. ------------ Stripey box ------------ These boxs are like the blank boxes but have stripes on them. You use these so you can bounce on them and get 10 pieces of wumpa fruit. --- TNT --- These boxes have TNT on the front of them and are red it is impossible to miss them. Jump on them to trigger a three second count down, once done to box will explode. --------------- Checkpoint box --------------- The check point boxes have a C on them and when you jump on them you receive a checkpoint. 0----------------------------------------------------------------------------0 / 4. Walkthrough / 0----------------------------------------------------------------------------0 0--------------------------------0 / A. island 1 / 0--------------------------------0 Island 1 is the basic tutorial to the game. The levels are pretty simple and the enemies are prtty easy to defeat. The only levels that will probably challenge you are The great gate and the Native fortress. 0------------------0 / aa. Sanity beach / 0------------------0 0---------0 / Enemies / 0---------0 Crab - These crabs are relatively easy to defeat just jump on them or spin them. Turtle - To defeat the turtles simply jump on them and they will go into their shell and then spin them away. 0------------------------0 / Things to look out for / 0------------------------0 Pits - Look out for these pits because if you fall down them you will have an instant death even if you have Aku Aku protecting you. 0--------------0 / Walkthrough / 0--------------0 Yipee the first level and not to say one of the easiest in the game. You will wake up on a beach after being knocked out by the waves. Once you get up, you will see three crates one bouncy crate and 2 other crates. Jump on the bouncy crate and get all the wumpa fruit you can. Once you have gotten all the wumpa fruit out of that crate, go to the other two crates and spin them to get their contents, once done proceed up the path. As you proceed up the path you will finda crab walking across the screen, spin it. Once done simply jump over the pit, spin the Aku Aku box and jump over the block. Jump over the oncoming pit and spin the Question mark box. Now you will see an arrow box in front of you with a stripey box above it, jump on the arrow box and it will keep you bouncing until the top box breaks, once it breaks spin the arrow box. Spin the crab ahead of you and break the box. Then jump over the first pit and jump over the second one. Spin the next crab you see, just ahead of you you should see two boxes piled on top one another, jump on the top one and then bounce on the second one until it breaks. Once done, jump up the stairs and on the second step spin the Aku Aku box and the question mark box, we now have two Aku Aku's. You will notice that Aku Aku has now turned a golden colour. On the next step you will find four blank boxes so jump on them and get the wumpa fruit. You will see a metal box on the ledge opposite you, you can't break it so don't try. Proceed up the next step and the next one. On this step jump on the question mark box and get its contents. Jump to the next step (will these steps never end?) and jump on the five boxes. Continue up the rest of the steps until you are at the top. Now that you are at the top, spin the checkpoint box and proceed further and spin the Aku Aku box. If you have three Aku Aku masks, which you should have. You will now become invincible for a short amount of time. Now all the enemies that run into you will instantly die, which is good. Once you put the mask on jump over the ledge and un into the turtle who will die. Once he is gone jump over the pit and kill the next turtle. Jump across the next pit and kill another turtle, now jump across another pit and spin the box that you see. Jump over the next ledge and you will see two boxes behind it spin them too. Jump across the next pit and spin all eight of the boxes that you see. You will now see a fork in the road, take the left path. Up the left path you will see another turtle kill it and jump over the ledge in front of you. Spin the boxes that are there and carry on forward. Once you are at the end go back and take the right path. Jump over the pit and hit the metal box which will make transparent boxes appear. Jump on each of them while you cross, one of the boxes will be a 1-up box. Now that we have cleared both paths go to the end of the path you are on and jump the pit. Spin the last box which is a question mark box and jump into the warp to finish the level. 0--------------------0 / Ab.

Once done break the arrow box and break the Aku Aku box. Up ahead we will see our first TNT Box, simply jump on it and run away. Once done jump over the pit in front of you and spin the skunk in front of you. Proceed forward and jump over the next pit, then jump over the ledge. Jump on the arrow box and break the stripey box on the top again, once done spin the arrow box. Jump over the pit and spin the three skunks that are coming our way. Once those pests have been taken care of, procced forward and spin the venus fly trap. Once the plant has gone you will see a rolling stone, jump through when it is not near you. Spin the question mark box, and also spin the venus fly trap. Jump over the next pit and kill the skunk.

Continue down the path and you will see a green gem, if you don't have the green gem then don't read the next paragraph, if you do read on. green gem path -------------- As soon as you go up jump on the metal arrow box, Hold x to get a higher jump. Jump onto the set of green gems to your left.

Once you have crossed the pit spin all the skunks that get in your way and proceed up the path until you get to another pit. Cross the pit and dodge the boulder. Once done you should see a 1-up box in the middle of two TNT boxes you can only break them if you have a spare Aku Aku, if you do, break the boxes, if you don't leave them. Once you have got the boxes cross the double rolling stones and jump across the pit after them. Kill the skunks and jump over the ledge. Kill the venus fly trap in front of you, once this is done you will see that there is a pit with a rolling stone behind it.

Jump to the next ledge and spin the question mark crate which is in between the two metal crates, once done the metal crate will start bouncing due to the arrow crate underneath it, you will have to time your jump well, jump when the metal box is in the air at its highest point. Jump to the next ledge and spin the monkey away, beware of its roll attack though. Jump to the next ledge, which is very small and kill both the turtle and the venus fly trap. On the next ledge you will find a two step long staircase of boxes which a 1-up on the other side, jump onto the first bax and then the second box to get your prize of a 1-up. On the ledge after you will see a masiive thing youi have to climb up, so firstly spin the piece of wood that is vertical this will make it horizontal.

When at the end of the ledge jump onto one of the moving platforms and wait until it gets to the other side and then jump off.

This is all its gonna be like for the rest of the level so I am not bothering to write anymore to this level, I will only point out points that need to be noticed.

TO BE CONTINUED 0----------------------------------------------------------------------------0 / 5. Bosses / 0----------------------------------------------------------------------------0 0--------------0 / a. PAPU PAPU / 0--------------0 Well well our first boss battle, it is an easy one too. Let us start by describing what attacks Papu can do to hurt us. Spinning around his staff -------------------------- Papu will get his native staff and start spinning it around the room. He will spin his staff around the room three times, to dodge this attack simply jump over the staff or jump onto Papu's chair. How do we damage Papu Papu --------------------------- To damage Papu Papu we must firstly dodge his spining the staff around attack, once he has spun that around he will get dizzy at this precise moment we must use the jump attack and jump onto his head. We will have to repeat this process three times to actually knock Papu Papu out cold. 0---------------0 / B. Ripper Roo / 0---------------0 Well now we are on our second boss and he is a demented bird thingy and he is obsessed with TNT, this is not good. Let us look at the attacks this bird can do. Jump ----- Ripper Roo will jump around on three different blocks each time he is attacked, altogether there are nine blocks. He will jump on them in a different combination every time he is hit, to dodge this attack simply jump on a different block than the one he is about to jump on. How do we damage Ripper roo --------------------------- To damage ripper roo we must firstly stay on the platform we are on. You will see TNT crates coming down the stream, you must jump on them when Ripper Roo is near them. When they explode near Roo They will do one damage to his health. 0-----------------0 / C. Koala Kong / 0-----------------0 Our third boss isn't very smart but for what he lacks in smartness he makes up in for strength. Let us see what his attacks are. Throwing rocks -------------- Koala Kong will throw rocks at us, all you have to do to dodge them is simply walk out of the way. TNT --- Sometimes TNT boxes will fall out of the sky and they will already have a three second countdown, just stay away from these. How do we damage Koala Kong --------------------------- Every fourth rock Koala will take a longer time to throw a rock. When he throws this rock you must simply spin it back at him, repeat four times and you have won the fight. 0----------------------0 / C. Pinstripe Poteroo / 0----------------------0 Our fourth boss is gangster and that is all there is to it. Let's find out his attacks. Tommy gun --------- Pinstripe will always fire his tommy gun, to dodge this attack you must hide behind either piece of furniture. How to damage Pinstripe ----------------------- To damage pinstripe you must spin when he dances across the room, after this is done three times you must spin him when his Tommy gun jams, repeat this process until he is dead. 0-------------------0 / D. Dr. N. Brio / 0-------------------0 Cortex's right hand has some good attacks let see what they are. Purple potion ------------- When he throws this potion it will explode on impact, just a simple dodge move will be enough. Green potion ------------ When Brio throws this potion it will turn into a green blob, to get rid of the blob simply jump or spin the blob. How to damage Brio ------------------- To damage Brio you must firstly spin all the green blobs, every time you do this it takes one health away from brio. Do this until he turns into a weird monster then jump on to his head and spin him. 0-------------------0 / E. Dr. Neo Cortex / 0-------------------0 Our last boss and our mortal enemy with an N on his head, let us see the evil doctor's attacks. Pink blast ---------- Cortex will fire a pink shot at you all the time nearly, to dodge walk out of the way or jump. Blue blast ----------- Cotex will fire blue blasts that will scroll across the screen jump or walk over them to dodge them. Green blast ------------ When Cortex fires these you have to spin them back at him. How to damage Cortex --------------------- To damage Cortex spin the green blasts back at him, repeat this method five times to defeat the doctor. 0----------------------------------------------------------------------------0 / 6. Misc / 0----------------------------------------------------------------------------0 0----------------0 / A. Characters / 0----------------0 These characters are taken from the instruction manual, it will include all the characters you find in the game. CRASH BANDICOOT: ---------------- What can we say about this heroic, seriously agile, recently evolved marsupial that we haven't said all through this manual? Not much? Okay, well you might like to know that he really does enjoy a good tussle every now and then. And since this whole thing is for his girlfriend Tawna, so much the better! DR. NEO CORTEX: ---------------- His early years truly molded this wretched creature into the Mad Scientist he is today. Often ridiculed by the scientific community for his outlandish (yet nearly workable) theories, Dr. Cortex is motivated by one driving force-- to shut those know-it-alls up once and for all. Now if he can do this by creating a mutated army of once-animals, now-armored beasts, then that will just make his day. It will also make him supreme ruler of the planet. DR. N BRIO: ---------------- Not as pushy or driven as his boss, Dr. N. Brio has relegated his poosition to chief henchman of Dr. Cortex. Actually, it was Dr. N. Brio who created the Evolvo-Ray, but his lack of self-esteem let the other (more twisted) Mad Scientist take the credit. TAWNA: ---------------- Love of Crash's life, the unfortunate she-bandicoot is next on the list for experimentation by the nasty Doctors. What's a bandicootess to do (other than pout convincingly) to let her hero know he'd better hurry if he wants somebody to come home to. PAPU PAPU: ---------------- We think Papu Papu is native for "Pass me that dish again, mate." This animated mountain of a feller has a fuse as short as he is big. RIPPER ROO: ---------------- Crazy, demented, not all-there. These are kind words to describe an animal who has undergone one (or two) zaps of the Evolvo Ray too many. Not much of a conversationalist either, we hear. Do your best to avoid contact with Ripper Roo and his razor-sharp toe nails. KOALA KONG: ---------------- So much for a steady diet of peaceful eucalyptus leaves. When Dr. Cortex made this bruiser, he dedicated way too many protons to the muscle department and too few to the brains. He likes to throw rocks. Fine. Do your best to return the favor and you may get to the third (and most dangerous) island-- the fortress of Dr. Cortex. PINSTRIPE: ---------------- Dr. Cortex was looking for a more efficent form of enforcer and created Pinstripe Poteroo, a cross between a local furry omnivore and several chessy Gangster movies. Pinstripe is loyal to "The Don of Doctors" and makes no bones about protecting his employee with his wits, his skills and a fully loaded Tommy gun. WITCH DOCTOR: ---------------- Legend has it the spirit of an ancient Witch Doctor named Aku Aku looks over the islands as a benevolent protector. Sensing Crash's mission to thwart Dr. Cortex's plans, Aku Aku has scattered masks throughout the islands to help Crash succeed. With luck, the old Witch Doctor's faith in the Bandicoot won't be misplaced. 0----------------0 / B. Cheat codes / 0----------------0 Alternate ending ---------------- To get the altenate ending you must get all the gems in the game and then follow the path of gems across the great hall. Ultimate Password ----------------- At the password screen, enter the following to access all levels: Triangle x 4, X, Square, Triangle x 4, Square, X, Triangle, Circle, Triangle x3, Circle, Square, Triangle, X, X, X, X 0----------------------------------------------------------------------------0 / 7.
