You must complete this level twice -- the first time,
for the Crystal and the Crossbones Platform Gem, then, to get
the Gem Box. The Gem Box is very difficult to get. First, get
to the second check-point in order to activate the Crossbones
Platform. Then, step into it. Carefully get to the end of the
treacherous section (do not fall down the pit) and hit the "!"
box to activate some hidden boxes at the beginning of the Crossbones
section. Backtrack to the Skull Platform (where you started),
getting all the remaining boxes, and step on it. This will return
you to the normal path. Continue this way until the end of the
level and you will receive the Clear Gem. Note: In the bonus area,
one TNT box will not explode with the rest. It is the first one
of the last series. There is also a hidden box in the bonus area.

bonus platform then jump off and kill yourself. You will not lose
any lives and will appear next to the platform with extra time
to get the gem. The amount of time will be random.
Information in this section was contributed by Corygreen91.
Hint: Hang Eight and Plant Food: Clear
Gem:
On the two levels that have a timer (Hang Eight and
Plant Food), when you enter the bonus level, die. Do not reenter
the bonus level after you die. When you get back to the main level,
the timer will have been reset to one and a half minutes and you
can then finish the level a little slower and get the Clear Gem
easier.
Hint: Hang Eight: Surfboard:
When you are on the surfboard and see a ramp with a
big read arrow on it, turbo (X or Circle) towards
it. With some luck, you should fly up it to smash the box at the
top. Note: Crash also does a flip if you watch closely.

Hint: Night Fight: Gem Box:
It is possible to complete this level once and get
everything. When you get to the first checkpoint box, do not hit
it, just continue walking. When you get to the fork, take left
path first (Crossbones). If you are successful, you will get a
Clear Gem. After going out of the Crossbones path, keep walking
until you get to a checkpoint box. Hit it. Next, backtrack to
the first checkpoint box (taking the right path), and hit it.
When this is done, sacrifice a life. Now, take the right path
again and get to the end of the level. You should have already
gotten the Crystal. Note: Backtracking may require several attempts.

(level 2) and keep jumping until you hit another box. When you
hit another box you can go back and get the two boxes that were
clear.
Information in this section was contributed by David Hibbard.
Hint: Snow Go: Red Gem:
Instead of warping from Level 7 (Air Crash) to level
2 (Snow Go), go through the normal entrance to Snow Go. Get to
the place where there is a seal located below and to the left
of the Red Gem. When the seal gets close to the cliff, quickly
jump on its head and get as close to the Red Gem as possible.
Then, immediately press Circle. If done correctly, Crash
will grab the Red Gem. Note: This may take several attempts.

down. Hit the "!" box and continue. When you reach the
end, turn around and go up the right side, being careful to destroy
all enemies and boxes. You will find two wire frame boxes. Suddenly,
they will appear in the same color as two free lives. This is
the result of hitting the "!" box.
Information in this section was contributed by Jwb1992.
Hint: Turtle Woods: Avoiding pits:
Use the following trick to avoid jumping into the pits
and killing the rodent-like enemies. Line yourself with the right
edge of the screen when you get near the pit. Next, jump to the
right side edge and you should be land there. When you get on
that piece of platform, jump forward, but quickly sweep the D-pad
to Right. If done correctly, you should be on another piece
of platform/ Then, simply jump to the other side of the pit.

to reach a hidden area in the level.
Information in this section was contributed by Racer302
and Boss11590.
Hint: Turtle Woods: Blue Gem:
Collect no boxes throughout the stage. To get the Red
Gem in the second stage, bounce off the seal. Then, when you get
below the gem, body slam to get the extra height needed to collect
it. To get the Blue Gem, you must first reach the box count for
Turtle Woods and collect your Clear Gem. Reenter the level, but
this time finish without breaking any boxes. This gets difficult
in the section where boxes cross the entire path inside a small
monument. You can pass without breaking any boxes by jumping on
the box that is second from the left. It is a box that must be
jumped on several times to break. If you successfully pass the
level with a box count of zero, you will be awarded a Blue Gem
at the end.
Information in this section was contributed by The Missile.
When attempting to get the Blue Gem, if you get stuck at the part
where there are a lot of boxes in your path (directly in front
of a C box), make sure you are in front of the bouncy box then
hold Circle and press X. You will do a high jump,
technically not breaking the bounce box.

Complete Turtle Woods twice, the first time for the Crystal and
Gem, the second for the Blue Gem by collecting no boxes throughout
the entire level. After that, go to Hang 8. Go on the blue platform
to reach a secret area.
Information in this section was contributed by N. Gin & Spider Pan.
Hint: Turtle Woods: All Gems:
Get the Blue Gem by not getting any boxes then get
the Purple Gem as usual. Once you have both of these gems, kill
yourself. You should start back at the beginning. Go through the
rest of the level and get all the boxes to get the Silver Gem.

Hint: Un-Bearable: 99 lives:
After the second bear chases you and falls down the
bridge, fall down after him and you will reach a secret level.
Work your way through it until you get to the checkpoint at the
half way point. Under the checkpoint is a "!" box. Hit
the box, then go right to find a jump box (box with an up arrow).
Jump up to the ledge on the left, get the fruit and Aku-Aku mask,
then jump over to the ledge slightly above you on the right. Use
your super jump (hold Circle and press Jump) to
hit a box which gives you a free life. When you super jump again
you will see the bottom of a second box which also has a free
life. Jump off the ledge to the right, and collect the fruit on
your fall down. Then, fall off the cliff. You will resume at the
checkpoint with one more life than you just had. Continue doing
this until you get 99 lives. Make sure to get the fruit when you
jump up and fall down. Since there are about 20 fruits, every
five times you do this will result in 100 fruit, which also gives
you another life.
Information in this section was contributed by Fire}{Burner.
Hint: Un-Bearable: Bonus round:
When the first bear falls down the broken bridge, fall
down that pit to reach a secret bonus round.
Information in this section was contributed by Chelsea Timberlake.
In the level Unbearable, after being thrown off by the small bear,
jump back across the pit and walk a small way back toward the
beginning of the level. After coming to the small bear, the game
should take you to the Cortex warp room with a level opened called
"Totally Bear".
Information in this section was contributed by Kevin Strika.
After the bear hurls Crash off at the end, instead of going right
down the road to the warp room, move in the opposite direction.
Make the big jump and keep going. When you see the bear, go right
next to him and it will transport Crash to level 26, "Totally
Bear".
Information in this section was contributed by Dennis Costomiris
and Evan Mattson.
When the second bear drops inside the hole, drop down after it
to find a hidden level.
Information in this section was contributed by meenacommunication.
Hint: Un-Bearable: Breaking fences:
Spin in the fences in the level to break through instead
of jumping over them. This will let Crash get away from the bear
faster.
Information in this section was contributed by Nick Brown.
Hint: Skull and crossbones platforms:
Those platforms with the skull and crossbones on them
seem to be there, but then they disappear. Their secret is to
make it through the level to that point without out losing any
lives. Once you die the platform will no longer be there.
Information in this section was contributed by WebWhizTommy.
After you die in a crossbones level, the platform does not disappear.
When you hit a checkpoint before a crossbones platform, you will
be returned to that checkpoint and can just go to the platform
again. Repeat this until you pass the level.
Information in this section was contributed by Channing.
Hint: Bum Burners:
In Diggin' It or Bee-Having, there are a set of five
Bum Burners. Bounce on all five without touching the ground to

Hint: Nitro Steps:
In Diggin' It or Bee-Having, there are a set of Nitro
Bowes that look like steps. Go on it to the top to reach a secret
area with a Purple Gem. Note: All Nitro Boxes that are not bouncing
will not hurt you. However, these are probably the only ones in
the entire game.
Information in this section was contributed by N. Gin., Spider Pan, Metal Dragon and Sword Arm of Dragon.
Hint: Defeating Cortex:
There are bombs and rocks during your battle with Cortex.
You may sometimes crash into them. However, if you spin just before
you crash into them, you can whack them out of your way or explode
them.
Information in this section was contributed by carnohanfamily.
When you get close to Cortex, spin to attack him. When you are
heading for a rock or a bomb and cannot steer away in time, spin
to make it either fly away or explode. Note: If you are lucky
and score a pot shot while spinning bombs, you will hit Cortex.
Information in this section was contributed by Jwb1992.
Hint: Defeating Komodo Brothers:
When you arrive, they will be throwing swords to each
other. First they will throw swords in circles at you. Dodge them,
then one will hit the other into a spin to try and get you. Also
dodge that. After a moment the spinning one will get dizzy and
collapse on the ground. Spin him. Repeat the above twice to defeat
the Komodo Brothers.
Information in this section was contributed by N. Gin & Spider Pan.
Hint: Defeating N. Gin:
Stand in the center of the platform. The first time
he shoots the laser, do not move. It will move over you. The second
time he shoots the laser, jump. The third time, stand still. Follow
this pattern to avoid getting scorched.
Information in this section was contributed by SpaceDemon51588.
Hint: Defeating Ripper Roo:
When facing Ripper Roo on the first level, stay in
a corner while he is bouncing TNT and Nitro boxes. Do not jump
on the boxes or they will explode. Hit Ripper Roo when he is done
jumping on the nitro boxes and is sitting on the ground. After
this, return to a different corner.
Information in this section was contributed by Mutt-Mutt.
When Ripper Roo is effected by his own explosives, continuously
jump on him, even when he starts to stir. Then when he jumps up
to the ceiling to regain his pogo stick, keep jumping on him.
You should go up with him. Note: This may take some practice.
Information in this section was contributed by yingyangdragon126.
Ripper Roo will first jump around and lay TNT crates that you
must run around to avoid. Next he will lay down Nitro Crates which
you must also avoid. Wait for Ripper Roo to be hit by the Nitro
Crates like the TNT crates and he will get dizzy. Run up to him
while he is dizzy and press Square to Spin Attack him.
After spinning on him, he will lose a chunk of health. Do this
three times to win.
Information in this section was contributed by tyhobbs1.
Hint: Defeating Tiny Tiger:
He will try to squash you. Jump on the platforms to
avoid it before they fall down. Repeat the above steps twice to
defeat him.
Information in this section was contributed by N. Gin & Spider Pan.
Hint: Activating colored platforms:
To activate the colored platforms on various levels
you must acquire the corresponding gems. For example, if you want
to get the Blue platform in Space Out (level 25), get the blue
gem in Turtle Woods by collecting no boxes.
Information in this section was contributed by Chris McLaughlin.
Hint: Shortcut:
When in those pits and the moles surface, you can jump
to the right onto the bridge before the vertical pillar. Then
do a slide jump and jump to the other side of the pillar, then
onto ground.

Hint: Reusable crates:
This trick can be used on any level except for Boss
levels. Instead of getting the crates immediately, find a checkpoint
(if available). Then, get the crates. If you die, you can still
keep the lives and Wumpa Fruit from the crates. You can then go
back and get more Wumpa Fruit. With a good number of lives, it
can make for a nearly unlimited supply.
Information in this section was contributed by Charlie Baum.
Hint: Bonus lives:
Jump on the baby polar bear's head in the second warp
room (level 6-10) ten times to collect ten extra lives.

be a clear gem.
Information in this section was contributed by Powerbomb14.
Hint: Avoid losing levels crystal:
If you receive a levels crystal but cannot make it
to the end of the level and are losing a continue, go back to
a different warp room. Hold L1 + R1 + L2
+ R2 + Triangle and go up. You should come to the
Boss you fought after that warp room. It is best to go on an easy
Boss and defeat him in one continue -- first Ripper Roo, second
Komodo Bros., third: Tiny Tiger, fourth N. Gin, fifth Neo Cortex.
After that, you will receive the levels crystal.
Information in this section was contributed by IanRoot.
When you go into a level and earn the crystal or the gem and cannot
reach the end of the level, keep dying until you get a game over.
Then, go to a different level (Turtle Woods recommended). Get
to the end of the level. When you are returned to the warp room,
Crash will throw the crystal into the air, and you will have earned
the crystal for the level that you could not complete.
Information in this section was contributed by sarah harrison.
Hint: Get a crystal without completing
a level:
Go through any level you get to the crystal. Collect
the crystal, then keep dying until you get a game over. Choose
to continue then complete any level on the same floor as the one
you just died on. When you exit, you should have two crystals,
one for the level just completed and the other for the one that
you lost your lives on.
If you get the crystal on a difficult level but cannot complete
the level, once you have the crystal warp back to the warp room.
Go into Turtle Woods and complete that level. You will then get
the crystal for the difficult level.
Information in this section was contributed by Goal204.
Hint: Ape preview:
When you go to the Road To Ruination or similar level.
When you go to the first end when you turn right, look at the

Glitch: Surf up on platform:
After defeating Ripper Roo, you will get to stage 2.
Go to the second level, where there is a jungle. When you get
to the part when you surf, make sure you get Aku Aku, then get
to a platform with boxes on it. Wait for a moving mine to hit
and explode, and you will "jump" into the sky and land
on that platform. You can move around, but you could fall off
the platform and get back in the water.
