It is the sequel to Crash Bandicoot: The Huge Adventure and the eighth installment in the Crash Bandicoot video game series. The game's plot follows Crash Bandicoot as he sets out to foil the universe-conquering plans of Doctor Nefarious Tropy and free his brainwashed friends from the clutches of the evil N. Trance.
Crash Bandicoot 2: N-Tranced features side-scrolling levels and quasi-3D chase sequences as well as isometric stages in which the player must navigate by rolling a metallic sphere. Multiplayer modes are also available via the Game Link Cable. The game was received positively by critics, who praised the level variety and presentation, but criticized the gameplay for being largely identical to The Huge Adventure.
