Spike

The Spike is a titan appearing in both Crash of the Titans and Crash: Mind Over Mutant. It is the first titan Crash encounters in Crash of the Titans. In Mind Over Mutant, Crash defeats a group of Spike who are harassing the RhinoRoller villagers in the Wasteland. Afterwards, the Spike team up with Snipe to destroy the Bandicoots' house and create chaos on Wumpa Island.

Biology
Spike is a brown-colored, bipedal titan created from a mutated porcupine. It has a flat head with narrow eyes and a distinct overbite. Its muscular arms and back are covered with spines, which protrude when Spike guards itself. Spike travel in packs, and are known to terrorize smaller creatures, attacking with their large claws and spike-summoning powers.

Abilities
Claw Combo: Spike swipes at an enemy with its claws up to three times.

Heavy Attack: Spike extends an arm, then butts an opponent with its right shoulder, breaking its guard. This attack can be charged for greater damage.

Spike's Surprise: Spike's ultimate attack. It raises spikes from the ground around itself, damaging all enemies within range. The spikes last for two seconds before retracting. This attack instantly consumes all stamina once used, and cannot be used again until it is full.

Block Attack: Exclusive to Crash: Mind Over Mutant. When blocking, pressing the 'light attack' button causes Spike to extend its spines, damaging any titan that attacks it.

Jump Combo: Performed by using a light attack while jumping. Spike curls into a ball and hurls itself at an enemy from in the air.

Claw Combo Extended: Also exclusive to Mind Over Mutant. Performed by using a heavy attack immediately after completing a full Claw Combo. Much like the Jump Combo, Spike curls into a ball and launches itself forward.
