Crash Bandicoot 2: N-Tranced is the second handheld installment in the Crash Bandicoot series. The game is the sequel of Crash Bandicoot: The Huge Adventure. Gameplay
The gameplay is characterized by a limited environment, and by the breaking of crates, most of which contain some bonus. Breaking all of a level's crates earns the player that level's white gem. The player can collect additional white and colored gems by finding and touching them. Colored gems activate secret areas. If one collects all of the gems in the game, the secret ending is activated. Stepping on a question-mark platform takes Crash to a bonus level.
Crash has several moves at the beginning of the game: jumping, double jumping, spin attacking, super body slamming, sliding, ducking, crawling, and an extra-high jump performed by sliding or ducking and then jumping. Crash also collects a special ability after beating each boss. The special abilities earned during the game are the 'Super Slide' and the 'Rocket Jump'.
After collecting a level's crystal, time trial is activated for that level. The player receives a relic upon performing especially well on a time trial. There are three relics to collect from each level, which are colored, in order of increasing difficulty, sapphire, gold, and platinum.
The game's controls are as follows: A for jump, B for spin, and R for slide and duck. The L Button is used for most of the powers the player gets for defeating bosses. Holding L and pressing R activates the Super Slide, holding L and pressing A activates the Rocket Jump, and just holding L activates the Turbo Run. Story
Deep in the heart of hyperspace, Uka Uka complains about Doctor Neo Cortex's incompetence, and how his last scheme to shrink the Earth failed miserably. He now trusts Doctor Nefarious Tropy with the task of aiding him in universal domination. N. Tropy sees into the future as phase one in his new scheme. He sees himself standing amongst the Bandicoots, and concludes that since the Bandicoots keep thwarting them, their only solution is to bring them to their side. With this, he recruits N. Trance, master of hypnotism.
Meanwhile, back on N. Sanity Island, Crash Bandicoot sleeps away while his friends, Crunch and Coco are abducted by a strange vortex. Aku Aku alerts Crash of the situation and tells him to bring him a Power Crystal so that he can see into what's going on. But when he does, Crash begins to be sucked in by the vortex. While Aku Aku tries to rescue Crash, he uses the Power Crystal's power to discover that N. Tropy is behind this. With the last of his power, he rescues Crash. N. Tropy ends up abducting a strange character named Fake Crash, but he doesn't seem to notice. He has N. Trance successfully hypnotise the Bandicoots into doing his every whim.
Meanwhile, somewhere else in hyperspace, Crash and Aku Aku plan to collect more Power Crystals so that Aku Aku can open more areas of hyperspace, free Coco and Crunch, and foil N. Tropy's plan. Crash frees Crunch after a battle in the skies of Saudi Arabia, and Coco is freed after a battle inside a volcano. After Crash defeats Fake Crash inside an Egyptian tomb, N. Tropy realizes that they captured the wrong Crash. N. Trance ensures N. Tropy that the Bandicoots will never find their hideout in a million years. However, with a few more Power Crystals, Crash and Aku Aku enter the hideout. When Crash and Fake Crash defeat N. Trance, N. Tropy flees into one last vortex
