The Lab

''Be careful! It's the last, and one of the hardest, levels! Doctor Neo Cortex himself lies in wait! Keep going right and save Tawna!'' - Level description The Lab is the final full level in the original Crash Bandicoot. It is considered to be one of the hardest levels in the Crash Bandicoot series. Fully clearing this stage rewards the player with the Yellow Gem. This is the only level in the game to use the mechanic of ! Crates as switches to temporarily unlock doors; this, combined with the supercharged Lab Assistants and TNT Crates hidden in clusters of normal crates, provides for a challenging platform challenge.
