Crash Dash (level)

Crash Dash is the fifth level, and sequentially the final level in the first Warp Room, in the game Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back. It is a hazard escape type level, a level type often used in the Crash Bandicoot series, although primarily seen more often in the earlier games. The main goal of the level is to, of course, acquire the crystal, as well as to avoid Electric Land Mines, which won't kill the player, but will slow said player down instead. Other hazards to avoid would be the Electric Fences, which will kill Crash, as well as Snowy Boulders.

Environment
The level takes place on N. Sanity Island or on Wumpa Island, possibly in a more northern area of the boulder levels in the first Crash Bandicoot game, Boulders and Boulder Dash, and probably in the mountains due to the many evergreens and snowy atmosphere. Much of the forest in this level is full of the ancient ruins that dot most of the Wumpa Islands throughout the game. The Bonus Round appears to take place in the highest trees of the forest surrounding the mountain, quite similar to the Tawna Bonus levels in the first Crash Bandicoot game.

Trivia

 * This level's title is shamelessly recycled for several other things in the series, including the final powerup in Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped and the racing minigames in Crash Bash. Interestingly, the Warped powerup was renamed Speedy Shoes and Turbo Run in The Wrath of Cortex and The Huge Adventure, respectively.
