| - In Crash 2: Cortex Strikes Back and Crash 3: Warped, there is a way to acquire extra crystals, gems, relics, and powers. This is related to the fact that if Crash jumps on several enemies in a row or spins or slides enemies into other enemies, he will get wumpa fruit and/or lives, depending on how many enemies are in the combo. If Crash achieves a combo of 200 or more, the prize is a crystal, gem or relic. There are never 200 enemies in a row in any level, but a combo of 200 can be achieved by jumping 200 times on an arrow crate and then jumping directly onto an enemy. So whenever Crash jumps for several minutes on an arrow crate or bounce platform and then jumps on an enemy, he will get a crystal. If he jumps for a longer time, he will get a gem instead. In Crash 3, if Crash jumps for 400

There are never 200 enemies in a row in any level, but a combo of 200 can be achieved by jumping 200 times on an arrow crate and then jumping directly onto an enemy. So whenever Crash jumps for several minutes on an arrow crate or bounce platform and then jumps on an enemy, he will get a crystal. If he jumps for a longer time, he will get a gem instead. In Crash 3, if Crash jumps for 400-600 (but never above 464, 564 or 664) before landing on an enemy, the prize is instead a relic. In Crash 2, a good place to perform this is near the end of Snow Go, where there is an arrow box near a seal. If that seal dies before that, the player can spin before reaching the floor and instantly crouch, keeping the combo intact (if the player wants to jump, Crash must spin and crouch before touching the ground). In Crash 3, a good place to perform this is in the side scrolling section of Gone Tomorrow, where there is an arrow crate near a spiked shell. There are other places where this cheat can be performed, such as in Hang'em High and the Tiny Tiger boss fight. For a long time, it has been unknown if this is a glitch or a very bizarre intended feature. However, in 2014, Naughty Dog co-founder Andy Gavin (who was previously unaware that this glitch was possible) wrote the following comment on a video posted on his Facebook page: "The way i tracked that combo chain was always a little wonky. I think they piled on a stack so it probably overflows at some point. I probably never considered there was a way to get 200+ (it's probably 255)". It is worth noting the glitch isn't the effect of an overflow, but rather an oversight in the combo system.
