Crash Nitro Kart 2

Not to be confused with Crash Bandicoot Nitro Kart 2.

Crash Nitro Kart 2 is a mobile racing game that was released sometime in June of 2008. There are sixteen tracks and eight playable characters. There are also six game modes to choose from.

Story
Being a simple mobile racer, CNK2's plot is very simple and pretty illogical. Once again, Nitros Oxide is attempting to turn the planet Earth into a concrete parking lot. This time, however, he skips his "Survival of the Fastest" game and proceeds with his plan immediately, now with Cortex and Ripper Roo backing him up. The first step of his plan is to deforest the bamboo groves which happen to be the home of Yaya Panda. Yaya calls on Crash and Coco for help, and so the bandicoots set off to race for the fate of the planet once again.

Characters
With the exception of Tiny Tiger, all characters who were present in the PlayStation-era Crash games have reverted to that era's designs. Nina has also been given a redesign that resembles her appearance in Crash Tag Team Racing.

Quick Race
Quick Race consists of a single race on a randomly selected track with a random player character and kart.

Cup
Cup mode has players race a set of four tracks in a row, with points awarded for depending on where they place in each race. The racer with the most points overall wins. Like other racing games in the series, Cups consist of four races. There are four cups in the game; Completing a cup awards the player with a star. Earning all 4 four stars from each cup allows the player to attempt Sudden Death mode.

Challenges
Challenge mode is the main story mode of the game. It consists of eight missions to complete. Coco, Yaya, Ripper Roo and Nina are unlocked as playable by completing missions. Completing all missions unlocks Monster Truck mode.

Arcade
Arcade races are the main free racing mode, allowing players to race on any track they want with any character and kart combo. They are also the only method of unlocking new karts.

10 Wumpa Fruits spawn in pre-determined locations on each track. Collecting the fruits and placing 3rd or above in the race adds the fruit you've collected to a counter, which counts up to allow the player to unlock new karts. A maximum of 10 fruit total can be collected per track, meaning to unlock all karts, the player must get all 10 fruits on all 16 tracks.

Sudden Death
Players must race through all of the tracks in the game. If players do not finish in first or second, then they must restart from the beginning. In addition, the first character to complete their third lap causes the race to end, regardless of what position the player is in. This mode is unlocked upon completion of all of the Cups.

Monster Truck
This mode has the player racing around in a monster truck. The point of this mode is to smash as many enemies as possible in two minutes. Tiny is unlocked by crushing 50 enemies in one round in this mode. Once all of the missions in Challenge Mode are completed, this mode is unlocked.

Karts
There are eight karts in the game. Other than the first one, they are all locked. In order to unlock them, the player must collect a certain amount of Wumpa Fruit. Despite each kart belonging to a specific character, any character can race in any kart.

Tracks
There are sixteen tracks scattered among eight worlds. Each character has their own track.
