Multiplier Crate

An X Crate, also called a multiplier crate, is a crate that appears in the game Crash Nitro Kart. They are rare as they give the player three power-ups instead of just one. They are more common in boss races. In normal races, they usually only appear once in an unnoticeable place, just as they do in battle arenas. The items that can arise from an X crate are missiles, bowling bombs, turbos, ice mines, TNT crates, nitro crates, and static orbs. Players never acquire three of the N. Tropy clocks, witch doctor masks, power shields, and tornado tops. The reason for the letter X on these crates is most likely being it is also a symbol for multiplication.
