'''Clear Gems''' are a | '''Clear Gems''' are a gray [[gem]] that appear in nearly every main ''[[Crash Bandicoot (series)|Crash Bandicoot]]'' series title, and make their debut in the first ''[[Crash Bandicoot (video game)|Crash Bandicoot]]''. A Clear Gem is usually rewarded at the very end of a level, usually right at the exit portal, if [[Crash Bandicoot|Crash]] has destroyed every [[Crate]] in the level. Some levels have another Clear Gem, which is rewarded for completing a hidden area. Several levels have a hidden pathway with Crates that can only be accessed by collecting a certain [[Colored Gem]] in another level. Once a pathway becomes accessible, Crash can also break those Crates, therefore making it possible for the Clear Gem to appear at the end. | ||

Some regular levels do not have a Clear Gem but rather a Colored Gem; nearly all of them are on [[Cortex Island]] except for the [[Wumpa Island|Middle Island]] level, [[The Lost City]]. Besides The Lost City, the other levels without a Clear Gem include [[Generator Room]], [[Toxic Waste]], [[Slippery Climb]], [[Lights Out]], and [[The Lab]]. In the penultimate level, [[The Great Hall]], every Clear Gem that Crash collected can be used as a platform to progress onward to the final boss level against [[Dr. Neo Cortex]]. | ||
