Whole Hog Secret Level

Rewards: Clear Gem—destroy all 24 boxes.

Crash rides a warthog through a village. This is a bit tougher than Hog Wild, but similar. You can only access this level if you’ve completed the Neo Cortex bonus stage in Sunset Vista and earned the key.

As Crash climbs onto the pig, it starts running. Dodge spike poles and jump over some lying on the ground. Hit the first box just before moving to the left to get past a tribesman, then jump over a chasm.

There are two more chasms—this time there are drums that help. For the second drum, hold down the Jump button as you hit it so you get more air and soar over the spiky poles on the other side of the chasm. Otherwise, you land right on top of them.

As soon as you land, rush under a roasting pig; don’t try to jump over it. Continue through an area with lots of boxes—jink right and left to get them all. Go under another roasting pig, then head left past a tribesman before you jump over the third roasting pig. Use a drum to jump over a chasm, and continue to the only checkpoint of the level.

Head left around the next tribesman, then jump on another drum to cross another chasm. Dodge right, past a second tribesman, and jump another chasm. If you bounce off the drum, you can soar right over a tribesman waiting on the other side.

Collect several more boxes before racing under a roasting pig. Bounce on a drum to clear a chasm and spiky poles, then head right, past the final tribesman. Finally, clear out the remaining boxes on your way to the end portal.

For best times, pick up all of the yellow time boxes. You can’t make the warthog go faster, so be ready to jink back and forth to get them all.
