Crash: Mind over Mutant (Nintendo DS video game)

Crash: Mind over Mutant is a 2008 video game developed by Tose for the Nintendo DS. It is an installment in the Crash Bandicoot series and an alternate version of the console-based title of the same name developed by Radical Entertainment.

Like the console version, the game centers on the titular character Crash Bandicoot, who subdues and takes control of large mutants by attacking them in a process called "jacking", which entails him mounting the mutants and using their abilities. Both versions share an emphasis on this mechanic, though compared to the console version, an open world 3D platformer, the Nintendo DS version is a 2.5D side-scroller with a minimal plot.

The game was received unfavorably by critics who regarded it as a regression from the series' previous Nintendo DS installment. They highlighted its uninspired gameplay and level design, weak audio and negligible narrative. Responses to the visuals were more mixed, with some complimenting its polish and others criticizing its animation and technical shortcomings.
