Aku Aku Crate

These crates give Crash Bandicoot and Coco Bandicoot an extra hit point so if he/she gets hit after getting this crate it will have no effect other than he/she will lose his/her Aku Aku. If he/she gets two it will have the same effect except this time he/she will get two extra hit points. Getting three will give Crash/Coco temporary invincibility (apart from falling down a chasm) then he will two hit points once again after the invincibiblity wears out. An Iron version is used in Crash Bandicoot Purple: Ripto's Rampage.

In Crash Twinsanity, Uka Uka crates replace Aku Aku crates when playing as Dr. Neo Cortex or Nina Cortex. They work the same as the Aku Aku ones.

Levels without Aku Aku crates are generally harder levels than levels with Aku Aku crates.

In certain special levels, such as Lights Out, from Crash Bandicoot 1, Aku Aku is semitransparent, white, and illuminates the surrounding area near Crash in the level.
