If you enjoy watching a lovable bandicoot navigate through a series of hazardous landscapes while trying to stop an evil scientist out to rule the world (classic Saturday morning cartoon stuff), then *Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy* is here to deliver all that nostalgia along with a terrifyingly fun challenge. Donning its stylish new coat of paint, this remastered trilogy brings back memories for gamers and invites new players to experience the charming chaos.
Unveil your agility skills by helping Crash tackle various levels to thwart the plans of his arch-nemesis, Dr. Neo Cortex. Every jump, spin, and fruit collection feels slicker than a dancer at prom night while the added features crank the trilogy’s nostalgia up to 'eleven' (because ten is way too mainstream). You can toggle between Crash and his sister, Coco, adding a delightful twist and slightly more varied gameplay. Although the challenge is as high as the Wumpa Fruits are plentiful, you won’t want to throw your Switch out the window—well, not until level 12 of the first game. Good luck with that. Get ready to smash boxes, collect gems, and shout “I’m not going to die!” while you promptly die.
The visuals are vibrant and chiseled—think a cartoon that haphazardly spilled a box of Crayola crayons over the graphics. Every level looks breathtakingly crisp and colorful, matching that early 2000’s vibe while breathing new life into each pixel. The remastered audio is just as gloriously updated; you’ll find yourself humming those classic tunes and possibly forgetting that there’s a bandicoot running through lava and, uh, fruit crates. Plus, the new cutscenes blend perfectly with the upgraded visuals, adding to the overall experience of both nostalgia and sheer joy.
In summary, *Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy* on Nintendo Switch is that delightful combination of nostalgia and charmingly brutal design that will keep you on your toes. Whether you’re a seasoned running-and-jumping veteran or a new bandicoot recruit, this trilogy is an adventure you don’t want to miss. Just remember, if you hear the words 'level design', it’s time to either strategize or stock up on patience. For a game that catapults players back into the high-octane world of platforming fun, giving it a strong 9 out of 10 feels absolutely justified, especially considering that it has sold over 20 million copies worldwide. So grab your controller and let the nostalgia trip begin!
