It's largely an iterative sequel building on what The Huge Adventure had already done but something about the game, be it the level design or whatever, kind of highlights the issues the engine has. Inputs can be eaten frequently when doing things out of certain actions and jumping at the edges of platforms can feel really unforgiving.
Besides that there's not much to say. The new powerups are annoying, N. Trance is one of the funnier designs they made post Naughty Dog, the camera being zoomed in and the level design being what it is really leads to a lot of leap of faiths, and the game has the annoying ball levels straight outta twoc.
Overall, I spent untold amounts of money purchasing an analogue pocket and I broke it in with this fuckin thing.

it's funny, when i played huge adventure, i commented on how the game completely lacked innovation or an identity. n-tranced seems very much like it tried to combat that critique, and i have great news: it succeeds. where huge adventure failed to have an identity, n-tranced asserts itself as a very memorable entry to the series. it innovates in a very unique way.
it does both of these things by being extremely bad.

One of my first Crash games on the GBA, so there's bias saying that this one is my favorite of the bunch. Platforming is expected to be exactly like it was in The Huge Adventure, only the obvious differences being level layouts and certain sections such as the magic carpet. Overall, I'd have to say that the platforming was more enjoyable than the one in the Huge Adventure and was also fun to explore the levels whilst also finding the gems.
