? Crate

A '''? Crate''' is a very common type of crate in the Crash Bandicoot series, usually containing big amounts of wumpa fruit (or, occasionally, a 1-up or an Aku Aku mask, the latter mainly in the GBA series). To destroy them, the player must spin, slide through, belly flop, or jump on them. In Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back and Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped, certain ? crates are programmed so that if the player dies many times in a certain segment of the level, it will turn into a checkpoint crate or mask crate which will stay there forever if the game is saved. They appear in Crash Team Racing and Crash Nitro Kart holding items and in Crash Bash as purple holding special items in particular minigames. In Crash of the Titans for the Nintendo DS they appear in large and small sizes and the larger crates can only be broken by using jacked enemies.
