Rat

Rats are enemies encountered throughout the Crash Bandicoot series. Rats made their debut in the first Crash Bandicoot game.

Crash Bandicoot
Rats are found in Lights Out and Fumbling in the Dark. Only their red eyes can be seen in the darkness. Like skunks, they move in packs towards Crash and will fall off the end of the path if not defeated.

Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back
Rats in this game wear spiky armor which protects them from spin and slide attacks. However, their backs are exposed, leaving them vulnerable to being jumped on or body-slammed. Spike rats can typically be found either shuffling along the pipes and rooms of the sewers, or chasing each other around in circles.

Crash Twinsanity
Rats were not seen again until Crash Twinsanity. Rats are found in almost every part of the game, they are first seen in the caves of N. Sanity Island, around N. Gin's Battleship, on the grounds of the Academy of Evil, in the underground Boiler Room and finally on the rooftops of the academy.

Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy
Rats and Spike Rats reappear in the N. Sane Trilogy, where they reprise the roles they had in the original versions of the first and second games.

Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled
Spiked Rats make a cameo appearance in the Nitro-Fueled remake of Crash Team Racing in the race track N. Gin Labs. At Megamix Mania, a pair of rats can be found trying to help one of their spiked counterparts up a ceiling hole. Another Spiked Rat also appears in the wall with Rusty Walrus's imprint.
