    The best crash bandicoot game out there. Only music is not as good as the other crash games but apart from this is by far the best crash game. 10--/10

    The best Crash yet by far, and one of, if not the best platformers ever made.

    Looks and plays like a masterpiece-filled with tonnes of relatable content.

    For being a direct sequel to the original trilogy, this game definitely holds it's own and I feel can be considered just as good. The art-style heavily improves in comparison to the N-sane trilogy and the lighting system has gotten quite the upgrade thanks to using a new engine. The story could have been better but I wouldn't say it's lacking when taking the original trilogy intoFor being a direct sequel to the original trilogy, this game definitely holds it's own and I feel can be considered just as good. The art-style heavily improves in comparison to the N-sane trilogy and the lighting system has gotten quite the upgrade thanks to using a new engine. The story could have been better but I wouldn't say it's lacking when taking the original trilogy into consideration. Crash was never known for it's amazing storytelling but rather its difficult yet fun gameplay which this game does wonderfully. It's also one of the few games I can think of with a skin system that doesn't have any **** microtransactions tacked on (and from how it looks, would be hard to add on later like they did for the CTR remake)

    With all that being said, if you've played the original trilogy and have been looking for a new game to scratch that itch, this game will do just that. For anyone new to the series, I would say this is a competent game on its own (Though I would recommend playing the original trilogy first to see if you'd like the kind of gameplay Crash has to offer)

    This is a great sequel to the original series. Of course I would like something in the style of Crash bandicoot Twinsanity, but nevertheless the fourth part of Crash is great in everything. Locations, enemies, visuals in general, new gameplay, everything is fine. Perhaps the complexity of the last two islands is off scale (:

    It’s impossible to describe how great it feels to have Crash Bandicoot back on the big screen - it feels like a real return to form from the original games. The game is severely difficult, but that’s part of the fun for me at least. I cannot stress to everyone that this game is worth every penny and more, especially if you love a good challenging platformer.

At the same time, it smartly modernizes the crash bandicoot formula in a way that respects the originals while still being innovative. There have been complaints of how secretive many of the crates are, and the lack of handholding, but for those who grew up in the NES era, where games didn’t apologize for being tough as nails, this will be a refreshing challenge in a sea of watered down mediocrity. One of the best gaming experiences I’ve ever had. Also, heads up. Take your time exploring the levels before trying to get all the crates. Lots of tricky hidden ones.

    I’m gonna start this review off with a bit of an anecdote: back in June of 2019, shortly after its release, I reviewed “Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled,” and in the final sentence of the review, I suggested that Activision, after two successful “Crash Bandicoot” remakes, try their hand at a new, wholly original “Crash Bandicoot” game. After all, while that game, along with the “CrashI’m gonna start this review off with a bit of an anecdote: back in June of 2019, shortly after its release, I reviewed “Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled,” and in the final sentence of the review, I suggested that Activision, after two successful “Crash Bandicoot” remakes, try their hand at a new, wholly original “Crash Bandicoot” game. After all, while that game, along with the “Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy,” were great titles, we hadn’t gotten an entirely original game in the franchise since 2008’s polarizing “Crash: Mind over Mutant.” Clearly, Activison’s studios knew what they were doing when it came to crafting faithful “Crash Bandicoot” titles, so I was more than ready to see what kind of new adventures they could take the orange marsupial in. Little did I think that just about a year later, they’d come forward and announce the next game, fittingly titled “Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time!,” and let me just say, you’re damn right it is. The second entry in the series to bear the “Crash Bandicoot 4” name in some way (after 2001’s “Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex”), this game caught my eye as soon as the previews came out, and it was one I was very much looking forward to. And let me tell you, it’s every bit as glorious as I hoped it would be.
    “Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time!” brings back the classic “Crash” gameplay, and does a marvelous job of translating it to a new generation. Crash’s movement feels fluid, the platforming elements are strong as usual, and this game certainly brings the challenge. Believe me when I say, no matter whether you go for everything in the game or not, this game is going to kick your ass in more ways than one. Fortunately, though, the challenge is welcome, and even if the game gets difficult, it’s not an unfair type of difficult: it’s a test, sure, but the challenge feels smart and the level design is so brilliant, you’ll feel rewarded when you get through the levels. The game also features plenty of new content to keep things fresh, chief among them being the new masks. These masks bring new powers to Crash that allows for great new ways of platforming, and they also help the creators get even more creative and exciting with the level design. Furthermore, the addition of new types of levels, like N. Verted levels and Flashback levels are great, as are the numerous gameplay styles brought to the forefront with new playable characters, like Tawna, Dingodile, and even Neo Cortex himself. All of these characters have their own charm to them, and are an absolute blast to play. Visually, the game is beautifully designed, the environments are wonderful to look at, and the game is bursting out of the screen with colors. Beyond how wild the gameplay goes, the visual design is equally as inventive. And while the story may not be the main focus of “Crash” games, I enjoy this game’s many callbacks to Crash’s previous adventures, and I think the characters and dialogue are charming and hilarious.
    I honestly can’t think of any negatives about the game that really detract from my enjoyment of it. Yes, the game is extremely challenging, but as I mentioned, it’s a welcoming challenge. It’s not packed with “fake difficulty,” it’s a game that’s smartly crafted and, as difficult as it can get, it feels rewarding when you do a great job.
    Overall, “Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time!” is everything that I hoped it would be, and it’s exactly what “The Wrath of Cortex” should’ve been almost two decades ago. It’s the finest “Crash Bandicoot” game that I’ve played since “Crash Bandicoot: Warped!,” and it establishes that Crash is back and better than ever. It’s a beautiful, faithful, unforgettable adventure for the orange marsupial, and it makes me happy to see how excellent of a job Toys For Bob did with this game. It’s truly amazing, and beyond being one of the best games I’ve played this year, it’s far and away one of the best entries in this great series. I can’t wait to see where the series goes from here. Also, hey, Activision, so I’m thankful you answered my request for a new “Crash” game from the “Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled” review, and if you don’t mind, I have just one more plea for you guys. I don’t want to ask for too much, so I’ll make it quick, but…can “Spyro” be next?
    Final rating: 10 out of 10 “Fantastic”

    Intro

    Crash Bandicoot 4 sets out to reestablish the old style of Crash games while throwing out the past 21 years of subpar attempts made by other studios after the original 3 games launched. Toys for Bob, the developers behind 2018’s Spyro: Reignited Trilogy and 2011’s Skylanders: Spyro’s Adventure, try their hand at continuing Crash’s legacy in a way that feels like no other game came after the 3rd installment until now. Building off Crash Bandicoot: N. Sane Trilogy was a must here but since that was made by Vicarious Visions, I was a bit worried that this game might falter in a few areas, and unfortunately it does.

    Story/World Building – 3/3

    If there is one area that this game excels in, it’s the amazing cartoony cut scenes. A fun story with great voice acting and entertaining visuals. Voice acting withing levels can get a bit grating if you have to repeat a level over and over but VA audio can be muted for such an occasion. For a more casual playthrough, the story makes the game all the more special even though you need to 100% the game to see every scene within the game. The story is not the primary focus but the cartoony nature of this game lends its way to an overall fun experience.

    Gameplay – 3/4

    Toys for Bob make this platformer worth the full 60 dollar price tag due to the amount of content within the game. Regular levels can be replayed inverted, special optional levels with different characters, videotapes to collect, and play through. So much replay value is bundled with this game that it will easily take you 50+ hours to 106% the game and see everything. This does lead to an issue where levels can feel a bit overstuffed. Special character sections can lead to some frustration like Tawna grappling hook not locking on to an object properly or Neo Cortex missing a platform due to weird hover physics. Crash plays like his normal self, just like in the original 3 games so no complaint about him. I love that this game has high replayability but levels that have boxes that are way too hidden or have too high of difficulty spikes to 100% clear can be annoying. N. Sane Trilogy had a pretty fair balance between fun and difficultly minus a few levels but Crash 4 is easily the hard game in the series, almost to an unfair degree in the later levels. It’s still a fun Crash game but most will have a struggle getting to 106% completion due to buggy special characters and high difficulty spikes.

    Technical – 2/3

    This game can be buggy at times like the aforementioned grappling hook but works most of the time when playing as Crash. The cartoony style is fully realized and makes this game look beautiful. Framerates can be an issue with some levels dropping it to as low as 20 FPS and inverted levels shooting up to 60 FPS due to minimal style filters applied to these levels. Music through is serviceable but nothing that reaches the heights of the first 3 games. Nothing too game-breaking but issues arise here and there.

    Verdict

    Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time is a great first attempt for Toys for Bob. They almost stick the landing with great visuals, a fun story, and serviceable gameplay that almost reaches the heights of the originals. Difficult spikes and a few character glitches can be annoying and lead to some frustrating moments but if you’re willing to power through that, there is a lot of fun to be had.

    Crash 4 looks absolutely stunning and every environment looks new and distinct from the others and will show set pieces that will have you in disbelief that this is a crash game. In the level offbeat many easter eggs and such can be seen on the rooftops and in the background, rewarding players with a keen eye.

    This game does come with a small handful of negatives such as the framerate chugging a bit on a base PS4, and some crates being almost impossible to find unless you spin every nook and cranny of the level or give up and google it.

    But other than that, this is personally the best platformer I have played within the past decade.

    They should have made exclusive levels for the side characters and don't remix versions of Crash and Coco levels.

    He sido un fanático del accidente durante años como mi primer accidente2 y ver la serie seguir consiguiendo juegos me hacen muy feliz de ver la trama ir justo después de 3.
    Pero este juego en mi opinión es un hijo vivo de la twinsanidad accidente y accidente1. En la aventura que ha crash's moveset de la twinsanity sin el salto de longitud, pero el juego a menudo se siente como Juguetes para Bob se le dio la trilogía y el jugador a través de crash1 y sólo se fue y desnatado crash2 y 3. Con sus nuevas mecánicas como molersita una espada de doble filo, ya que es una buena manera de mantener los niveles conectados, pero con cómo funciona el sistema de iluminación donde especialmente en el botín llama donde el punto ciego para usted está frente a usted, ya que no sabría dónde está y cuándo se supone que saltar. Se siente barato porque cómo simplemente pubish que no saber lo que sigue, especialmente cuando quiere que estés en los dedos de los dedos de los dedos de los dedos de los dedos de los dedos de los dedos de los dedos de los dedos de los dedos de los dedos de los dedos de los dedos de los dedos de los dedos de los dedos Este juego no es Darksouls, pero este juego se siente como si fuera como controles de choque.
    Con el diseño de los niveles golpea una situación incómoda. Como el diseño de nivel es densamente mejor que la ira de contexto se siente apagado, así como tener cajas fuera de la vista y tener la búsqueda de que sea más frecuente. El problema es cuando el juego te pregunta cómo los controles de bloqueo entre entrar y salir de la sección 2d y 3d. Sección 2d se siente como si estuvieras en un ritmo en el nivel superior, ya que todavía lo controlas hacia arriba y hacia abajo le da un simple salto en una caja un manierismo sólo por la forma en que configuras accidente para él. Este tipo de diseño puede funcionar si se hace puede hacer que los obstáculos más fáciles de leer. Miras en el segundo mundo donde el juego muestra cómo el fore va a ser el gran obstáculo en esto, pero ya que se mezcla tan fácil con el fondo donde se siente como un puñetazo en la cara si no estás listo para ello.
    Pero con esos retrocesos sigo pensando que el juego sigue siendo dios, pero siento que tenía que hacer es mirar hacia atrás por qué a la gente le gustaban las series de choque en primer lugar.

    This game is amazing, one of the best crash games since Crash 3! Recommend heavily to anyone who loves Crash, similar games, and those who love platforms! Only issue is that the game ramps up the difficulty immediately... like level 2 immediately, one of the hardest Crash games to date; if you like a challenge like me, it should be no problem!

I think both new and old players will love this game and I'm giving it 9/10. I wish they would have had more levels where you could play as the new characters though, seems like a waste to introduce them and then only have a few levels where you can play as them. I also wish the game was a little longer and the bosses were more challenging, the game took me like 5 hours to beat and I only struggled with the final boss. Expand

It commits to a pure joy of platforming that we have rarely seen since the Super Nintendo era. I’d say the closest relative is Donkey Kong Country Returns and its sequel, and there are more than a few nods in that direction, most notably the rail grinding sections. It also reminds me of Yoshi’s Island due to its breathtaking cartoony style, its focus on collecting (red coins / boxes), and its continuous introduction (and escalation) of new mechanics throughout the game. It is an endless joy to play (and replay and replay difficult sections). It’s full of secrets, close calls, reversed/remixed levels, bonus stages, playable characters, new skins and more. It’s BETTER than the thing it’s based on which speaks to the quality of the Toys For Bob team. They analyzed exactly what a crash game should be, mechanically, visually, and took it to the next level. Granted, the PS1 had a lot more limitations those geniuses had to grapple with so we can’t hold it against them that they didn’t make a game of Crash 4’s precise quality. In fact ... Crash 4 reveals the simple beauty of their design. This feels like an evolved version of what they set out to do, and I imagine that the original Crash devs will savor (along with fans) what this team has accomplished both in homage and advancement. 11 out of 10 Expand

    When I was growing up, Crash Bandicoot was my childhood, it was the first game I had when I first received my PlayStation. I spent hours playing through it’s levels even though I was absolutely crap at it back then. I personally found myself enjoying its sequels way more instead, especially the variety and challenge of the third game, Warped. As time moved on however, I became a bigger fanWhen I was growing up, Crash Bandicoot was my childhood, it was the first game I had when I first received my PlayStation. I spent hours playing through it’s levels even though I was absolutely crap at it back then. I personally found myself enjoying its sequels way more instead, especially the variety and challenge of the third game, Warped. As time moved on however, I became a bigger fan of Crash’s sort of half brother in Spyro the Dragon, playing through the original trilogy numerous times. But all those memories returned with the release of the Nsane Trilogy back in 2017, the folks over at Vicarious Visions did an amazing job turning the original games into modern platforming classics, just with more accurate jumping. But it’s fallen upon Toys for Bob, the folks responsible for the Spyro Trilogy remake to create the first true new Crash game in over 20 years.

    This game is set right after Warped with Cortex, Uka-Uka and N. Tropy stuck for the last 20 years after their defeat, what this does is essentially retcon everything released afterwards, including Crash Bash, so nothing of value was lost. After finally opening a rift between worlds, it’s up to our heroes Crash, Coco and Aku to stop Cortex’s latest evil plan across dimensions. This time around we are also introduced to brand new Quantum Masks that will change up the gameplay in many ways.

    So after going through the seventeen steps to play this game on the PS4 (Installation, Update, Install the Update, Powder its Nose, License Agreement, Waiting for the game to pick the right outfit and ask me to register an Activision Account for additional skins *pfffft*) You are presented with two playstyle options, Modern and Retro, this really just amounts to whether you want to play with lives or not. I have been on record several times that the concept of lives can go die in a fire with even long time holdouts like Mario finally at long last ditching them, I also bring up examples like the fantastic modern Rayman platformers that just have you do the most recent section if you are killed.

    Speaking of which, It seems this game has taken a few of its inspirations from Rayman Legends. Not only with the new grind rail sections but you are rewarded Gems for how many Whompa fruits you get after each level. When it comes to Level design though, the Trilogy levels were great looking but restricted due to the original designs, this time around the devs have free reign over what they can do and each level is just meticulously detailed with these little extras that make them all stand out but my god can these levels can get huge. Toys for Bob certainly did their homework on how a Crash level works and the controls and camera flow incredibly smoothly, I never felt Crash wasn’t in my control with there even being a little beacon on the ground when you jump so no longer are you taking blind leaps of faith. The difficulty though is not that severe it’s like a really good curry, delicious but with just the right amount of heat. That is unless you are trying to actually complete the levels 100 %, in which case good luck getting off the toilet anytime tonight.

    Getting all the boxes can be no easy task especially in Bonus stages, while they used to be fun little romps in the original games they can be incredibly unforgiving here with exact methods to get everything or be made to start over and they are made even more complex with the new masks. The Quantum Masks introduced in this game give us several new powers like stopping time, switching gravity or dimensions and a heavy-duty spin attack, instead of being able to pick them out and use them at your own free will, they appear during certain segments in levels. Crash 4 introduces us to so many new mechanics and features it is almost hard to keep track of them all

    While there are certainly some complex sections, especially with Bonus Stages it is a real stretch to consider this game “hard”. We’ve gotten used to so many games hand holding us that we have become blind to any real challenge. Anything even considered hard is automatically paired with Souls or Cuphead. But anybody who is going to strive for full completion, you are certainly getting your money worth with each level having a “Twisted” version with its own set of gems to collect. Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time is an amazing addition to the series and a spectacular follow up to the Original Trilogy.

    My fingers are crossed for what they do with Spyro 4

    Th…there is gonna be a Spyro 4, right?

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Comincio dal fatto che per me è il miglior Crash Bandicoot dell'intera saga.
    Un gameplay incredibilmente gradevole e fresco che aggiunge a tutto ciò che era presente nei precedenti capitoli la wall-run e le tratte nelle "rotaie". Finalmente è possibile giocare con altri personaggi come Dingodile, Tawna e Cortex che, a discapito di un'abilità di Crash e Coco ne aggiungono una nuova (ad esempio il rampino, il lo spazzafoglie e la il raggio di Cortex.
    Il design è molto cartoonesco e si distacca dalla trilogia originale (soprattutto con vari dettagli molto più da Spyro) apprezzo questo stile perché probabilmente invecchierà meglio rispetto a quello della N.Sane Trilogy.
    La storia è un qualcosa di spettacolare, non riesco a credere al fatto che abbiano aggiunto una storia così bella, intricata e strana in certi tratti in un platform.
    Detto questo, c'è qualche piccolo dettaglio che non è proprio il massimo, ad esempio qualche bug visivo, telecamera troppo bassa in certi punti (anche se l'ombra migliorata risolve in parte questo problema) e le musiche facilmente dimenticabili.
    C'è però da fare i complimenti per come hanno gestito il doppio salto, farlo in questa maniera aiuta moltissimo il player a poter aggiustare la traiettoria del salto anche dopo l'esecuzione (cosa da non sottovalutare in un gioco del genere).
    Per me questo gioco merita un 10 pieno

Now the game isn't perfect but it is still lots of fun and my personal favourite Crash game. My only real issues would be the colour contrast in some levels isn't the best making certain things hard to see and the fact that the relics can be very hard to get for the average player but other than that the game is lots of fun. The game is certainly a challenge, but every play through of a level just makes you better and better at it to where you will eventually be able to master the whole level.

The graphics are great, the game play is smooth and the new mechanics are actually fun and critical to success. This feels like Crash and if you enjoyed the first 3 games you will feel right at home with this one.

    The game obviously has tons of replay value as boxes are hidden in clever locations, secret gems can be found in subtle intractable objects and levels can be played with different goals in mind (time trials, get all the fruit, get all the boxes, only 3 deaths etc.) As an experienced crash player, it will still take me lots of time and effort to 100% this game. Overall I couldn't be more pleased with my purchase.

    I only have three minor critiques
    1.) The music is good but not nearly as memorable as the originals.
    2.) Each island has a specific environment and art style that is repeated for every level on that island.
    3.) I have yet to unlock any costumes as they appear to be gained by getting 5 gems from a level. I would like to be able to enjoy a couple costumes during my initial play through.

    Please buy this game at full price and support Toys for Bob who has obviously put tons of love into every aspect of this game. We need more developers like them. Also, great first week sales will maybe convince Activision to tone back the micro transactions in future games.

    12 years we have been waiting for a new crash, some would argue far longer than that. However what can't be argued is that is now back with a game that can stand proudly against the naughty dog games and the very best of the genre. The artstyle while not what I associate with crash is really beautiful and bring vibes of rayman legends which being compared to is never a bad thing.

However what can't be argued is that is now back with a game that can stand proudly against the naughty dog games and the very best of the genre. The artstyle while not what I associate with crash is really beautiful and bring vibes of rayman legends which being compared to is never a bad thing. The soundtrack is decent, not as good as the originals or many other crash games however they prove enjoyable while playing but not much beyond that (I liked how Cortex's theme was incorporated in all his levels tho). As for the gameplay it is a good as ever. The double jump is added to crash's standard moveset from the start allowing the game to be designed around it. He handles like a dream in these brilliant levels that really test your skills. This is easily the hardest game in the series but it's always fair. The game takes the level philosophy of mario where each level introduces its own gimmick and it is iterated on throughout the stage. Whether it be a pirate ship, a jaunt over rooftops above a festival or the prehistoric era every level has it's own sense of style and at it's very best tropical freeze one of the best platformers of all time comes to mind. The 4 masks also add to the gameplay variety in stages as at certain intervals you can phase objects in or out or slow down time or flip gravity. These add depth and puzzle like elements that fit's incredibly well with standard crash fair. the vehicles are massively turned down in this game as there are only 4 of them and they only appear once or twice each and only as sections of a level not a full level . The devs were confident in there platforming design and that the masks would create enough variety to keep the game fresh and I'm glad to say they nailed it. Replacing full vehicle levels are new playable characters in Tawna,Cortex and dingodile, all of which have 5 or 6 levels each. They break up the gameplay nicely as they all play very differently from crash and the good news for people who want pure crash action is that only one level with each character is required to beat the game. One thing that I didn't like however is after playing one of these characters sections you have to playthrough part of a level you already played as crash with slightly different box placement, which I personally found like a waste of time even if they are fun to bounce around in. The bosses are all well designed and fun to fight to that beating them down is fun from beginning to end. The game is packed with extra content with each level having 12 gems relics and the ridiculous perfect relics. Needless to say if your a crash fan like me you will be kept busy for a long time. The remakes where the groundwork but with this game crash can scream he's back and he isn't going away again any time soon. Expand

    The good:
    -Wide range of diverse and creative well implemented platform elements perfectly reimagining an old classic;
    -Amazing boss fights; -Challenging to the right level (at most); -Beautiful environmental art; -Huge replayability value. The bad: -Difficult spikes are frustrating at times even for already experienced players. -Too many hidden boxes makes it hard to complete

    The bad:
    -Difficult spikes are frustrating at times even for already experienced players.
    -Too many hidden boxes makes it hard to complete 100% of a level in an unpleasant way.

    Other:
    -From a person who platinumed the trilogy remaster I was looking forward to have 106% achievement on this one as well. Unfortunately this Platinum is insanely difficult. In summary you have to beat every level twice without dying. Once for the Perfect relic which includes destroying all crates, and a second time for the platinum time trials which by the way is more difficult than any of the original titles. Overall is kinda discouraging to be a completionist in this fourth installment.

    Toys for Bob's game is a welcome addition to the original trilogy, although you will hardly remember its levels or music. Crash Bandicoot 4 is two steps below the amazing Super Mario Odyssey and Yoshi’s Crafted World.

    I honestly did not expect such a stellar game. Crash Bandicoot 4 is breathtakingly beautiful, features an amazing soundtrack full of references to the original trilogy, offers tons of content, and thrilled me to bits with its brilliant level design. What’s more, it stayed true to its gameplay roots, while introducing loads of great new mechanics. For me it’s the game of the year. I salute you, Toys For Bob! [12/2020, p.58]

    Crash Bandicoot 4 is a worthy addition to the Crash legacy. It captures the spirit, fun, and challenge of the original games, and adds a lot more that genuinely makes the experience even better rather than simply padding out the gameplay. The game is certainly challenging and the levels could probably use a few more checkpoints, but the number in the game is truer to the spirit of the originals than modern gaming standards. A little perseverance will get you through the game, but it’s going to take a little work if you want to be a Crash completionist. Overall it’s a great platform game that perfectly blends the old and the new into a fun new experience.
