On a small three island chain off the southeast coast of Australia, a maniacal scientist has set up his headquarters. Bent on world domination, Dr. Neo Cortex has determined that the only way he can accomplish his goal is to create an army faithful only to him. So, he decides to brainwash the local animals and has selected Crash to be their leader. With the help of Dr. Nitrus Brio, they create 2 machines - the Evolvo-Ray gives the animals superior knowledge and the Cortex Vortex is supposed to make them allegiant only to Dr. Cortex - but it doesn't work right. Instead of being devoted geniuses, the animals become raving lunatics. While each attempt has been a failure, his greatest failure is Crash Bandicoot because Crash realizes that what Cortex is doing is wrong. Cortex becomes so frustrated with the crazed bandicoot that he banishes Crash to another island. Now Crash must get back to Dr. Cortex's lab to rescue his girlfriend, Tawna who is scheduled to be Cortex's next experiment. Talkin' Crash "The best looking platform game I've ever seen..."
