Croc: Legend of the Gobbos: Difference between revisions

JP: 1997

For a walkthrough of the game, please see the [[Walkthroughs|article]].

There are four accessible islands and one secret island in the game which can only be unlocked by collecting eight [[Jigsaw Pieces]] in the game:

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 ghost version of [[Baron Dante]]. Croc must defeat this Guardian to fully complete the game, 100%.

Just like any other platformer game, Croc will come across many enemies which will attempt to stop Croc in his adventure. Some can be defeated for short time before respawning, others may be[[:Category:Immortal Enemies| immortal]] and some can be killed for good within the level, such as the Spike [[Dantinis|Dantini]] in [[Smash and See]]. See the article for a full list.

Croc will have to face eight [[Guardian]]s including the main antagonist, [[Baron Dante]], and a ninth Guardian on the secret [[Crystal Island]]. Most of these Guardians were previously harmless creatures before Baron Dante used his magic to transform them. After defeating the Guardian, they usually transform into the creature they were before. There are two on each [[Gobbo Archipelago|island]] and one on the [[Crystal Island|secret island]]. Each Guardian appears on their own level and are usually killed by attacking them when they are at their weakest point three times. Baron Dante is the only Guardian in which Croc must 'defeat' three times, each time Croc must use a different technique to attack. The [[The Secret Sentinel (Character)|Secret Sentinel]] is the only Guardian in which Croc does not and cannot attack physically.The list of Guardian and their levels found in are below:

Dantinis are the most common enemies in the game and respawn when attacked. They are in league with the main [[:Category:Antagonists|antagonist of]] the game, Baron Dante, and are scattered throughout the game in order to stop Croc from completing his mission. They all come with different abilities, including casting fireballs, flying, throwing snowballs, running, swimming, and even one that steals Gobbos! View the Dantini page for more information.
