A crash can use the Cortex as a hammer, perform a spin attack while holding him, throw him over holes to activate contacts, and can even use him as a snowboard.
Gems scattered throughout levels can be obtained to unlock enhancements such as concept art. Crash’s control style is pretty much the same as the previous games, although he does not have different new maneuvers. Like the Jak and Daxter series, Crash is accompanied by another character along the way, in this case, his arch-enemy Doctor Neo Cortex.
