Crash 4 is an amazing successor to the N Sane Trilogy, following up with the same style of 3D platforming elevated through great story telling and new gameplay mechanics. If you have any doubts about the price, I guarantee it is worth every penny if you are a fan of the Crash Bandicoot series. The game, however, holds no punches when it comes to difficulty. Long gone are the days of thinking Cold Hard Crash from Crash 2 or Slippery Climb and High Road from Crash 1 were among the most difficult levels. At least 75% of the levels in this game are more difficult than the entirety of the N Sane Trilogy. There are even some bonus rounds in this game, that are probably akin to the difficulty of Stormy Descent, and I am not exaggerating that. This was a Crash game made out of the love, specifically for veterans of the series, to truly showcase how much they can push the limits of the gameplay. The linear style of gameplay returns although much more open with a wider field of view. This is much appreciated because you can really see the level of intricate detail Toys for Bob must have painstakingly done for this game. The addition of new characters is also a welcome change that offers a good change of pace from the Crash/Coco levels, although the Crash levels are still my favorite. Tawna and Dingodile levels are quite fun as well, while Cortex is more methodical and slow paced. Not my cup of tea per say, but I do appreciate the change of pace. Bosses in this game are the best in the franchise's history. I haven't gotten around to trying the N Verted Mode yet, but it does look challenging and offer extra replayability to an already long game. Thinking about 100% completing the game with all gems, platinum relics, N Sanely perfect relics, and Flashback platinums is going to be one hell of a challenge that even a seasoned veteran like myself is already sweating thinking about. But I am glad that they have gone the extra length to make this game truly special for the people who have waited for a game like this to come out for so many years! Bravo Toys for Bob, I am so glad that there are people out there who worked so hard to make this game exist, it truly a gem in my eyes. With that being said, it isn't perfect. The vehicle segments operate a bit clunky and the loading screens are pretty bad on a PS4 slim. Hopefully loading times will be resolved in a future patch or maybe on the PS5, who knows. With all that being said, I would rate this game a 9/10, and definitely in my top 3 favorite Crash games.
