    Definitely one of the better handheld Crash games to hit the market.

    My major criticism is that is only takes an afternoon to complete.

    A mediocre game with some interesting ideas. Crash Bandicoot fans should enjoy it, but gamers looking for a decent platformer on their DS should look elsewhere.

    Crash of the Titans is polished and fun while it lasts. We just have a hard time recommending a purchase when it all ends so quickly.

    There's plenty to do, and controlling the enemy is a neat twist, but the adventure is over too soon.

    Amaze was able to include the best elements from the more advanced consoles, adding its own twist in pair with the uniqueness of the DS, and the result is positive.

    Close to achieving Naughty Dog greatness in level design but far away from that success in other areas, Crash of the Titans isn't on par with its 2D, Game Boy Advance predecessors.
  8. Pocket Gamer UK

    A decent mix of action and platform gameplay, but despite an interesting new feature, Crash of the Titans simply doesn't do enough to stand out in a sea of Nintendo DS titles.

    Animations and controls are a bit to stiff to my likings (it feel like Crash is “snapping” on a grid all the time), but overall I was surprised to find something on its own and not just a cheap knock off, it’s totally different from the consol versions. This is where the DS version is better (or a least different) than the PS2, Wii, etc; Crash has more attack moves, the crates (regular, tnt and nitro) are back and more present, a different cast of titans (I like Jawslehoff, a lifeguard shark, with is hit song in Russia), all in all it’s closer to the originals than the others are. The DS’ touch screen and microphone are used to perform the titans’ special attacks, but this can also be done using the b button, which is great if you don’t feel like juggling between the buttons and the stylus all the time… it’s just nice to have the alternative at all time. However, there’s no way to turn the mic off, which is annoying while playing in the metro. It’s not a bad game. Amaze did a good job with a solid platformer, with more than descent graphics. My words to them for their next Crash would be to improve the controls to make them a bit more fluid and maybe work the perspective in some areas in the level which is critical in a game based on the jumping.… Full Review »
