Crash Bandicoot & Spyro Adventure World was a promotion with Nabisco in early 2004 on candystand.com. Tied in with Crash Bandicoot Purple: Ripto's Rampage and Spyro Orange: The Cortex Conspiracy on the Game Boy Advance, in specially marked packages of Nabisco products, there'd be Crash Bandicoot or Spyro themed cards. The cards contained codes that unlocked new minigames on the site. The promotion ended a year later in April 2005, meaning the cards could no longer be redeemed and the games were no longer accessible. In December of 2023, most of the games were recovered by a former developer and later made playable in the Flashpoint Archive. [1]
While the main game is found alongside the Crash minigames, the Spyro minigames are still lost and most of the code cards' designs are a complete mystery, with only 22 of the 90+ cards recorded online. The exact number of cards is also unknown, as promotional material never gave a specific number, only stating that there were "over 90".
