Bounce Crate

Bounce Crates are a type of crate that give Crash Bandicoot ten wumpa fruit (or 8 depending on luck in the first game), 5 in Twinsanity, and award less than ten wumpa fruit in the racing games. They were first introduced in Crash Bandicoot, although in Rolling Stones the first Bounce Crate gives Crash a Doctor Nitrus Brio bonus round piece instead of the tenth wumpa fruit, and in the Tawna bonus round of Up the Creek, one of these gives Crash a 1-up instead of the tenth wumpa fruit. In Crash Bandicoot and Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back, Crash bounces on this crate ten times and gets one wumpa fruit for each jump. As of Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped, Crash bounces on it five times and gets two wumpa fruits for each bounce. In Crash Team Racing and Crash Nitro Kart they are known as wumpa crates and give the player some wumpa fruit, which grant a weapon upgrade to all weapons if 10 are collected.

In Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back, if Crash body slams one of these crates, the crate breaks and he gets one wumpa fruit. In Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped, body slamming on the crate will cause the crate to break and Crash will be awarded with two wumpa fruit. In later games, no fruit will be awarded when the crate is body slammed. Jumping and body slamming are the only methods of attack that can give the player fruit. In all games, other methods of attack, such as spinning or sliding, will cause the crate to break with no fruit. This, however, only applies to platforming levels. When Crash or Coco is riding a vehicle or animal, attacking the crate will award the player with all ten wumpa fruit inside.

In Crash Bash, they can be seen in the background of Pogo Padlock, but serve no purpose in the game.

They look like Basic Crates in the GBA version of Crash of the Titans.
