Crash: Mind Over Mutant
Crunch is fought in the junkyard and has 9 hitpoints. He will be under control of the NV and Crash will have control of TK. He will be controlling five missile shooting robots, so you need to lift TNT Crates off of a conveyer belt, and throw them at the robots. When the front is open, throw the TNT Crates at four more robots. Then, two mechanical arms come out of the wall and walls in front of Crunch in various spots. He will be running behind them and coming out to throw bombs, so you need to use TK to throw him at two grinders, making him lose a hitpoint, so you need to now do this three more times. Then, Crunch is jackable and Doom Monkeys will be flying at you, so now you need to use Crunch's missiles to hit N. Brio, who is running around in a glass room. Once he is hit, you win.
