Full descriptionCrash Bandicoot is back in this Game Boy Advance adventure designed to provide all the fast-paced running, jumping, sliding, and body-slamming his fans demand. Naughty Dog's giant orange mascot goes portable for the first time in this release from developer Vicarious Visions, the studio responsible for bringing other video game superstars to the GBA, as in Spider-Man: Enter Electro and Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2.
Crash cascades through 20 levels in six locations such as the Mayan Jungle, Underwater Ruins, Arctic Caverns, and Underground Sewers. Challenges include side-scrolling platform levels, 3D chase scenes, and even aerial dogfights. The enduringly nasty Dr. Neo Cortex has invented his greatest creation yet -- the Planetary Minimizer. Help Crash stop the wicked genius before he shrinks us all to oblivion.
Making his colossal debut into the world of handheld gaming comes Crash Bandicoot: The Huge Adventure! With 20 levels featuring six unique locations, Crash can go anywhere from the Mayan Jungle to frigid Arctic Caverns. Gameplay modes range from side-scrolling to 3D chase levels to aerial dogfight combat sequences. It's marsupial madness on the Game Boy Advance!

AmazonCrash Bandicoot: The Huge Adventure marks the first time Crash has appeared on a handheld system. The game contains 20 levels and features six unique locations that take Crash from the Mayan jungle to frigid Arctic caverns. Gameplay modes include side-scrolling, 3-D chase levels and aerial dogfight combat sequences. Crash is once again pitted against his archnemesis, the evil Dr. Neo Cortex. Orbiting high above Earth, Cortex has decided to abandon his fixation on our hero and redirect his evil focus to world domination. Using his latest invention, a massive shrinking ray, Cortex takes aim and fires at Earth, shrinking the planet to the size of a grapefruit. Luckily, Crash's brilliant kid sister Coco is feverishly working on a machine to reverse the effects, but she needs crystals from around the world to power her invention. It is up to Crash to retrieve the crystals and help return the entire planet to its natural state.
Travel through 20 levels to stop the nefarious Dr. Neo Cortex
