At the beginning of this level Crash will wear a jet-pack and you will have to go through a long tunnel without gravity. The controls of the jet-pack are simple, perhaps take advantage of the first areas of the level, which are particularly simple, to practice. Along the way you have to avoid various dangers, such as flames, detached electrical cables, lasers and red-hot pipes. The boxes are of course all hanging in the air, including the dangerous Nitro boxes, which you need to avoid. The only enemies you will encounter are mad scientists similar to those in the first game of the series, who release electric shocks every few moments. Hit them when the electricity is gone to push them back until they crash into the wall of flame behind them, which will disappear.
The crystal is found just before the end of the path. Finally, just before the exit room, Crash will take off his jet-pack and you will also find the detonator to blow up all the Nitro boxes. There are no bonus areas in this level.
Getting the gem[edit]
To get a clear gem in this level you simply have to get to the end by breaking all the boxes. It's not difficult, there are no hidden areas or boxes. To activate a TNT box that you will find along the way, simply hit it with your head.
