Crash Team Racing (CTR) is a racing game for the PlayStation, made by Naughty Dog, featuring Crash Bandicoot. It was released in 1999. It is very similar to Mario Kart, although CTR takes much longer to beat.

There is a sequel to CTR for Playstation 2, GameCube, and Xbox called Crash Nitro Kart.

Gameplay

Gameplay is similar to that of Mario Kart; the following are gameplay elements original to CTR. Collecting 10 wumpa fruit improves any item used. The game has a special "power slide" move that gives the player a speed boost while turning.

As in Mario Kart, CTR has a battle mode, in which players attack each other in one of several special battle arenas.

Collectible items include trophies, crystals, gems, and relics. A number of secret characters can be activated throughout the course of the game.

The bosses, in order of appearance, are:

  • Ripper Roo
  • Papu Papu
  • Komodo Joe
  • Pinstripe
  • Nitrous Oxide (a new villain)

Tracks

  • Crash Cove: A short, easy course with water elements and a ship.
  • Tiger Temple: A roughly eliptical track with fire hazards, jumps, and a secret passage.
  • Blizzard Bluff: A snow level with frozen ponds and boulders that threaten to crush drivers.

  • Roo's Tubes: A race through underwater tubes with fairly tough turns and many nitro boosters.
