In real world terms, a glitch is something that is usually not meant to happen or a fault with something which is not meant to happen due to lack of testing. In [[Croc: Legend of the Gobbos]], there are some glitches, which can either give the player an advantage or disadvantage during gameplay.

Due to a bug in the game [[Croc]]'s head was missing in the original UK release on Sega Saturn. There was a yellow piece of paper that was quickly bundled into the games' case explaining to the gamer how to solve the problem.
There is a bug in the PAL Sega Saturn version where if the game is booted in a certain way Croc's head, along with some enemies, would not appear. There was a yellow piece of paper that was quickly bundled into the game's case explaining to the gamer how to solve the problem.

=== Hover Glitch (PC and PSX version)[[File:Croc Legend of the Gobbos - Floating Croc glitch (works only in PlayStation)|thumb|right|250px|Hover glitch]]===
A glitch in the PlayStation version of the game allowed Croc to hover in the air by jumping and tail-swiping in the air while quickly jumping, and if done correctly,
Due to a glitch in the PlayStation version of the game Croc can hover for a short time, this can be achieved by jumping, tail-attacking and jumping again very quickly. This can also happen in the PC version of the game but it is harder to achieve because the buttons need to be pressed faster than in the PlayStation Version.

Another glitch involves Croc getting more than the maximum seven [[Gobbos]] in a level. This is known to happen in the first level [[And So The Adventure Begins]] and the ice level [[Riot Brrr]]rr. In Riot Brrrrr, the video depicts Croc getting not just 7 Gobbos, but each time a symbol from the game would also appear, such as letters of the alphabet, crystals etc.

It is possible to trick the game into a state where it won't load the world map. To do this, find a map in which you can die quickly, for example [[Mud Pit Mania]] in which you simply jump into the hot mud. Lose every life until you have zero left. Then, jump into the mud another time, but before the screen fades out to "Continue Game", pause the game and press Select to quit. Then, accept "Continue Game" with yes - now every world map / island is invisible. If you go to the options menu, the camera is glitched and shows the wrong part of the title screen.

The PC version doesn't allow pausing the game while fading out. Pressing escape is just directed to the "Continue Game" screen and such returns "Yes".
