There are many items that Croc will encounter during his travels to free the Gobbos and ultimately defeat Baron Dante, aside from the white and coloured crystals .

Playstation/PC Version Items

Collectibles

These items are obtainable by Croc which can be used to help him advance through the levels:

Extra Lives

A life as shown in the official manual

These take the form of hearts and are found (usually hidden) in many places throughout the game. Picking up one gives Croc an extra life. The most common places that lives are found are usually in Bonus Areas, which are usually in secret places by picking up Sparkling Stars or landing on special Platforms. See the Cheats, Hints and Tips page for tips on how and where to get extra lives.

Jigsaw Pieces The 8 secret levels unlocked by collecting all six Gobbos from 3 consecutive normal levels  all contain one jigsaw piece which ends the level when you pick it up. All 8 jigsaw pieces create the fifth and final island, Crystal Island.

Torches

Scattered around on dark levels and only on the Desert Island (and possibly Trial on the Nile on the Crystal Island), Torches when touched will illuminate the nearby surrounding, making it easier to see pickups, pits and enemies for about 10 seconds. It is possible to play through these levels without the help of torches, however.

Boxes

See the page above for the full list.

Smash Boxes

These smash boxes are coloured differently throughout each environment, but easily distinguishable by the question mark on each face except the base and the top. You can only destroy these with a stomp. The only exception is when Croc is underwater , where you can use a tail swipe.

 These have been known to hold the following:

  • 5 or 10 regular crystals
  • A Coloured Crystal (red, blue, green, yellow or purple)
  • A gobbo
  • A gear (found on the fourth island or the last level of the demo)
  • Butterflies (when Croc has already opened a box containing a Gobbo or Coloured Crystal after dying in the level). Butterflies do not have any affect or use on Croc.

Push Boxes

These boxes can be pushed over a certain area, usually marked by a different colour to the rest of the floor. The can be identified by the arrow's on each face of the box, and can be used to get to places you cannot normally reach.

Special Boxes

In the level Smash and See in the Castle Island , these boxes must be stomped on in order to defeat the dantinis unique to the level by making them fall off the path of boxes. In each part of this level, all dantinis must be defeated this way as they are otherwise immortal (cannot be killed by stomp or tail attack( in order to get a gold key at the end of that part of the level to unlock the gold key door . These boxes do not contain anything within them. 

Keys

Silver Keys

Silver Keys will enable Croc to open cages that contain either a Gobbo Baron Dante has imprisoned, or switches that manipulate a platform or other part to a level.

Gold Keys

Gold Keys help Croc open locked doors that have big gold locks on them. AGobbo or some other treat is what usually hides behind the door. In some levels, the locked door is actually the only way to advance and complete the level.

Crystals

White Crystals

White Crystals are the most common collectible object in the game. They are used for the following:

  • If Croc is hurt while holding these crystals, he will drop them instead of losing a life. Croc will flash for a few seconds which prevents him from being hurt during that time, unless he falls in a pit or off a cliff. The crystals dropped will not stay on the ground for long, and Croc will drop all crystals he has even though once dropped he cannot claim the same number of crystals he had if he had over a certain amount [citation needed].

Coloured Crystals

Coloured Crystals are collected in a normal level to unlock the Crystal Door at the end, which usually contains a challenge in which Croc must complete in order to get the final sixth Gobbo in the level.

Other

Balloons

Balloons carry Croc to another part of the level. Make sure you don't let go until the balloon pops or you may lose a life. You cannot always return to where you were before riding the balloon so make sure you have finished before getting on!

Jellies

These pink gelatin desserts help Croc jump to higher places. Also known as Gummis or Gummi Savers in Croc 2.

Monkey Bars

These allow Croc to travel across dangerous parts of the levels, hand over hand, while avoiding enemies. If they are low enough, Croc can jump on top and run across them. In some levels, there are stomping Dantinis which walk across the top of the bars and will stomp at the ends and middle of the bars, and if Croc is underneath one when they stomp, he will fall off usually into a pit.

GBC Version Items

Bonus Items

Bonus Letters

5 Bonus Letters are hidden in each level. If you collect all letters that spell bonus (B-O-N-U-S), you will gain access to the bonus door at the end of each level.

Bonus Door

The bonus door found at the end of each level opens up when you have collected 5 BONUS letters. Behind the door is the Sub-Game area where you can win the last Gobbo of the level.

Interactive Elements

Secret Level Balloons

If you manage to grab a balloon, Croc will float to a secret area where you can find a ton of Bonus Items!

Jellies

Use these gelatinous trampolines to bounce up to higher places. You might think that stomping on these will give you a bigger jump but this is not true.

Buttons

Jump on a button to make a platform either move or appear. Some platforms move back to their original positions, so push the button a second time to reactivate it.

Monkey Bars

These allow Croc to travel across dangerous parts of the levels, hand over hand, while avoiding enemies. If they are low enough, Croc can jump on top and run across them.

Collectibles

Keys

Some Gobbos have been placed in cages - Croc will need a key to release them.

Jigsaw Piece

Collect four of these for a special bonus. The pieces can be found in four different jigsaw puzzles.
