Well... this is Crash Bandicoot.. but on the Game Boy Advance.
I do think Crash's mechanics were translated fairly well to 2D but some things were kind of off like the jumping and even the spins at times were a little delayed(?) Music was typical Crash music and level design is what you'd expect. The story was really dumb though LOL like it's barely a story. Bosses were really annoying and not impactful. The final boss with Cortex was hardly a fight at all, I wouldn't have even minded a second phase. Don't like how, for I guess the true ending you need to get all the gems and relics in each level and basically play the whole game over again. Glad I played this though because I love Crash and I love the GBA so playing this was a no brainer. The difficulty gets really really unfair though, but that's Crash for you.
