Crash Bash is the fifth installment in the Crash Bandicoot series. The game's story centers on a contest of minigames held by Aku Aku and Uka Uka to decide whether good or evil is the strongest.
The player wins Trophies, Crystals, and Gems by beating the different challenges of each level. The player can access additional Warp Rooms by defeating Arena Bosses. Each arena is played in the same manner; the arena continues until one player wins three rounds; winning three rounds earns the player a Trophy. Aku Aku decides that they must settle this once and for all, but when Uka Uka attempts to fight, Aku Aku reminds him that there could be no malice between them. Aku Aku summons Crash and Coco, while Uka Uka summons Doctor Neo Cortex, Doctor Nitrus Brio, Tiny Tiger, Koala Kong, Dingodile and Rilla Roo. Aku Aku protests, as Uka Uka's side has too many players. Challenging Uka Uka's confidence in his own power, Aku Aku demands that he surrender two of his team. Aku Aku denies using any tricks, and announces that he knew from the start that Uka Uka was actually attempting to steal the Crystals. Uka Uka demands what is this, and Aku Aku gives him the penalty for disturbing the Crystals. Uka Uka is ejected into space.
If the evil side wins, a supernatural storm rages throughout the universe announcing that Uka Uka has won. If one player is good and the other player is evil, Aku Aku and Uka Uka will state that they must fight each other to find out which side is stronger.
