Cortex Castle



Cortex Castle is Dr. Cortex's first base in the Crash Bandicoot series. Even though it was burnt down by a fire at the end of the first game, it's remains can apparently seen in the background of Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back. A track based on it appeared in Crash Team Racing. Also, he used it as his base in Crash Nitro Kart.

Appearance
Castle itselfs looks dark and creepy.Some corridors inside the castle are without any light as seen in the levels Lights Out and Fumbling In The Dark Crash must use Aku Aku as his lightbulb by opening Aku Aku crates. Castle is mostly made of rock. At the top of the castle, there is a lab(probably the place where Crash was evolved).The Great Hall can be also found on the top of the castle. In Crash Team Racing, Cortex Castle seems a little bit different, less obscure and creepy. It looks simillar to the Great Hall from the first Crash Bandicoot game. Spiders are the enemies on the track. Also at the side of the castle is a giant creepy animal face.



Trivia

 * In the backround of the level The High Road, Cortex Castle is visible in the same size as in the level Road to Nowhere. However, The High Road is located on the third island and Road to Nowhere on the second island. It should be smaller in Road to Nowhere.
