==Plot==
On an island inhabited by small furry creatures called [[Gobbo
▲On an island inhabited by small furry creatures called [[Gobbo|Gobbos]], [[King Rufus]] , their leader, discovers a small black basket abandoned in a lake containing a small, screaming baby crocodile. [[King Rufus]], along with all of the other Gobbos on [[Volcano Island]], raise the crocodile in the ways of the Gobbos. [[Croc]] is a vegetarian who eats mostly peas. After some time on the island, Croc and the Gobbos have established a close relationship until one day the evil [[Baron Dante]] shows up, along with his minion [[Dantinis]]. They kidnapp several [[Gobbo]] creatures including [[King Rufus]] after he straps a backpack to Croc's back and has [[Beany Bird]] take Croc to safety. [[Croc]] is then determined to rescue the Gobbos and [[King Rufus]] from the evil clutches of Baron Dante.
There are four accessible islands and one secret island:

*[[Castle Island]]
*[[Crystal Island]]
Note that the secret [[Crystal Island|Crystal/Secret Island]] can only be accessed when the player collects all eight J[[Jigsaw Pieces|igsaw Pieces]] from the eight s[[Secret Levels|ecret levels]] in the game.▼

Each
Each Island also contains two [[Levels#Guardian Levels|Guardian levels]]; one halfway to completion of the island and the other after all six normal levels are complete. Croc does not collect any Gobbos or Coloured Crystals in these levels, but can gather regular crystals and Hearts (lives) and must defeat the Guardian in the last section of the level. He must defeat the Guardian to progress to the next set of levels.

▲[[File:NewASTABarea1a.png|thumb|Screenshot of the first level in the game.|300px]]Once Croc has finished three normal levels and the corresponding Guardian level, a[[Secret Levels| secret level ]] will be be revealed providing he has collected all six Gobbos in each set of three levels. These levels contain normal crystals and Hearts, but not Gobbos. Instead of swiping the [[Beany Bird Gong]] to end the level, Croc must find the [[Jigsaw Pieces|Jigsaw Piece]] at the end to finish the level.
After both Guardians of an island are defeated, the next island unlocks and Croc must continue through the levels until reaching the eighth Guardian level, [[Baron Dante's Funky Inferno]] in which he must defeat [[Baron Dante]] on the [[Castle Island]]. If all Gobbos, Jigsaw Pieces, and secret levels are complete, Croc assembles all the pieces to create a new secret island known as the [[Crystal Island]]. This island contains only five levels, considerably more difficult than previous levels without Gobbos or Crystal Doors, and each level's theme seems to come from each main island. In the final level [[Secret Sentinel (Level)|Secret Sentinel]], Croc must defeat the [[The Secret Sentinel (Character)|Secret Sentinel]], a crystal version of [[Baron Dante]]. Croc must defeat this Guardian to fully complete the game 100%.
