Ghost Town

Ghost Town is the twenty-seventh level and is the second level of the sixth warp room in Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex. In this level Crash races Crunch in a mine cart in a three lap race. Ten relics are required to play this level. One gem is obtainable by breaking all the crates and another is obtainable by beating Crunch.

The player cannot activate the nitro switch crate until the third lap. This was cleverly planned by the developers, since there is a sequence of three ! crates, the last two of which are outline crates that are activated by the previous ! crate. The third ! crate fills in an outline crate with the nitro switch crate.

Trivia

 * This is the only level in the series where the nitro switch crate first appears as an outline crate.
 * This is the only level in a Crash platforming game with a lap system.
