There are many '''cheats, hints, and tips''' in the Croc series. In ''[[Croc: Legend of the Gobbos]]'' you can enter a password in the Main Menu option to select a level. When selecting a level in normal play, you can select the "Show Password" option to show the password for that level.

====Passwords====
When entering passwords in the Main Menu, the letters represent the directional buttons on the controller, so U is Up, D is Down, L is Left, and R is Right. The Island passwords unlock only the first level of that Island. Note that the Island passwords will unlock only ''the first level of the island''. Also, when using a password for a secret level, the level after will also be unlocked, because you do not have to complete the secret level in order to get to the next level. Not all passwords function correctly, for example:
*The password for [[Fight Night With Flibby]] and [[Demon Itsy's Ice Palace]] will allow the player to select any level up to [[Life's a Beach]].
*The password for [[Be Wheely Careful]], [[Riot Brrrrr]], and all levels from and after [[The Tower of Power]] will allow players to play all levels.
*[[I Snow Him So Well]] and [[Licence To Chill]] will unlock all levels up to [[Leap of Faith]].
