Crash of the Titans (mobile)

Crash of the Titans was released on October 2007 by DeValley. It is the mobile phone adaption of a similar game with the same name.

Generalities
It is a side-scrolling beat 'em up. Crash must fight his way through hordes of enemies and reach the end of each level. He can punch, kick, dodge and, of course, Jack the enemies (which is to say, take control of them after they're unconscious). When you're Jacked onto an enemy, a meter pops up. That meter is constantaly draining down, and when it's empty, you are projected backwards rather violently. This meter can be refilled by defeating enemies. Crash can upgrade his attacks in a Shop, by using the Wumpa Fruit he' collected as a paying method.

The game dosn't have a jump key, but Crash automatically leaps across holes when you walk into them. Sometimes you'll find colored blocks obstructing your passage, which can only be broken using certain kinds of enemies.there is a good variety of enemies in the game, all of them "jackable". There are 5 worlds to get through, and at the end of each level, you're given a rank based on you're performance. That rank awards you with Mojo points, with A being the highest rank, B following after, and C being the lowest one.

There are a few extra challenges in the game. Sometimes Crash will surf to get across the ocean, with a large wave coming right after him. You can use that wave to your advantage and gain speed, but if you'renot careful, you can get caught in it and lose a life. There are also Time Trials, survivor arenas, andWumpa-collecting mini-games.

As a curiosity, there was a contest held for this game. The bizarre award was having the winner (Stephen Massart)'s face pasted onto a boss's head, Dimbo.
