Turtle Woods


 * You may be looking for the level named after this level from Crash Bandicoot: On the Run!.

Turtle Woods is the first level of the first warp room in Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back and the N. Sane Trilogy remake of the second game. It is set in the rainy woods on N. Sanity Island. While on the surface it appears to be nothing more than a basic introductory level, clever players will find several intriguing secrets along the way. The first bonus round of Crash Bandicoot 2 appears here, under a breakaway floor. Earlier in the level, a stone face appears on the ground. Belly flopping this face will reveal another secret area that introduces Crash to the brand new nitro crates and nitro switch crate, and requires several tricky jumps from oversized ostriches to fully complete. The blue gem is also found in this stage, counter-intuitively requiring the player to clear the stage without breaking any crates to obtain.

Translation of Aku Aku Hints in the Japanese Version

 * Spiked Turtles have spikes on their sides, jump to stomp on them.
 * If you feel my voice disturbing, block your ears with the green triangle button.
 * Press crouch, then jump, to high jump.
 * Spin the armadillos to defeat them more and more.
 * Note that you don't get the Aku Aku hint if the mask gives you invincibility.
 * Also note that the location of Aku Aku hints, that either aren't level specific (in this stage the 2nd and 3rd hints) or inform about a secret of a previous level, can vary, mostly depending on the order you play the levels and the number of times you die.

Trivia

 * Originally, this level contained the red gem, but that was switched with Snow Go.
 * There were going to be armored armadillos in the secret route. One was placed straight after the ostriches, next to a since-removed TNT crate.
 * If a player has the box gem but not the blue gem, the box counter will say that zero boxes have to be broken, as a hint for the blue gem.
