About Crash of the Titans
Crash of the Titans is an action-packed platformer in the Crash Bandicoot series, developed by Radical Entertainment and published by Vivendi Universal in 2007. Available on platforms such as PlayStation 2, Xbox 360, Wii, and Nintendo DS, this title reimagines the traditional Crash gameplay by introducing massive, rideable “Titans” into the mix. Unlike previous adventures focused solely on platforming, this game blends exploration, combat, and puzzle-solving, creating a fresh, hands-on experience for fans of the series.
Set in a chaotic world where Dr. Cortex has created powerful mutant creatures called Titans, Crash must harness his new abilities to control these giant enemies and turn the tide of battle. The game’s levels are designed to encourage interaction with the environment—players can smash through obstacles, uncover hidden paths, and collect power-ups while riding Titans. The graphics maintain the series’ signature colorful and playful style, while the soundtrack and character animations give life to the chaotic yet charming atmosphere. Crash of the Titans stands out in the series for its unique mix of direct combat, exploration, and strategy, offering both nostalgia and new mechanics for longtime fans.
How To Play
In Crash of the Titans, you control Crash as he navigates through various stages filled with enemies, traps, and environmental challenges. The key twist in this installment is the ability to "jacking" Titans—smashing, climbing onto, and taking control of giant mutated enemies to use their special powers in combat and traversal. Each Titan has unique abilities: some can smash through walls, others can throw objects, and a few grant temporary boosts or defensive advantages.
Players move through 3D environments using standard platforming controls—running, jumping, and spinning attacks—but must also combine timing and strategy when engaging Titans. Combat often mixes direct attacks with environmental interaction, such as throwing objects or triggering traps to defeat groups of enemies. Collectibles like Mojo points and crystals are scattered throughout each level, unlocking new abilities, costumes, and bonus content. Boss encounters demand both mastery of the jacking mechanic and clever use of the environment, making each fight feel dynamic and engaging. While the game keeps controls accessible, fully mastering Titan abilities and chaining attacks is key to achieving high scores and completing secret objectives.
