Crash Bandicoot (クラッシュ バンディクー, Kurasshu Bandikū?, Crash Bandy Kuu) is a platform game made by Naughty Dog in 1996 for the PlayStation, featuring the character by the same name. In it, Crash must fight Dr. Neo Cortex's henchmen in order to save Tawna, his beloved bandicoot girlfriend for revenge on Cortex.
Gameplay
Crash Bandicoot has 32 levels. Two of these levels can be activated by collecting a key. Each level has a particular theme. No theme is shared by more than two levels. For example, on two levels, Crash runs toward the camera from a pursuing boulder, an allusion to Indiana Jones. On another level, henchmen throw barrels of toxic waste at Crash as he progresses toward the level's goal. There are also unlockable bonus levels by collecting 3 Nitrus Brio, Dr. Cortex (only in 2 levels) and Tawna icons. These pictures are always in boxes which gives the player a reason to break open boxes since you can't save your progress unless you complete a Tawna bonus round or a Cortex bonus round. You can also save by collecting a gem, but it's much easier to beat a Tawna bonus round then to do either of the other two methods.
You can also collect gems in Crash Bandicoot. To collect a gem, you must break all the boxes on that level without losing a life. There are several different colored gems in the game. Some levels require that you complete another level before every box on a certain level is revealed. For example, the Jungle Rollers level requires that you collect the green gem from the Lost City level before every box on that level is unmasked.
The boss levels feature the following characters, in order of appearance:
Papu Papu - Fought in his island hut.;
Ripper Roo - Fought on a waterfall arena.;
Koala Kong - Fought in a volcanic cave.;
Pinstripe Potoroo - Fought in his office in the Cortex Power factory.;
Dr. Nitrus Brio - Fought in his lab at Cortex Castle.;
Dr. Neo Cortex - Fought on his blimp.;
Reception
Crash Bandicoot was released to a positive nature. There are a large number of level themes. The game has three different types of bonus levels rather than just one. There are a number of gameplay elements that do not appear to belong to an integrated whole, such as the awkward face icons. This experimental appearance may have been because the game was a pioneer of a new series, and the developers may have been testing several ideas to see if they would work well in future Crash games.
