Each game level is assigned a single character code which signifies the internal name of the level. This character can be a decimal digit (0-9), an uppercase or lowercase ASCII letter (a-z, A-Z), an underscore (_) or an exclamation point (!). For letters, this character is case-sensitive, for instance level g is different from level G.

Some levels are more appropriately identified as game states: for example, level ID 19 in Crash 1 refers to the entire title sequence, main menu, options and password menus, map, and game over screen.

Each level's character code is associated with a number. The hexadecimal reading of this number determines the name of the NSD/NSF file pair which contains the game data for that level. For example, Cold Hard Crash has level code j which matches hex ID 13; therefore, its data is held in the files S0000013.NSD and S0000013.NSF.

Tables matching level names to character codes and hex values for each game are presented below.

Level 4 is in an older file format and is not properly compatible with the game engine.

Prerelease Versions

There are two known leaked prerelease versions of Crash 1. Some additional level slots are used in these versions.

Hex # Level Name
01 1 Test Area
02 2 Lava Cave Level
04 4 Cavern Level
0B b Cliff Level
0D d Waterfall Level
10 g 2D Donkey Kong
2B H (none)

Level 2 and level g (10) are in significantly older versions of the game's file format and are not compatible with the game engine. Level H (2B) is non-existent and is placed before "Fumbling in the Dark" in the proto map. The other levels are unfinished and contain some compatibility issues.

Crash 2

The final version of Crash 2 has .NSD/.NSF files present for 38 level IDs (42 in PAL version).

Each ID for a level is also used for that level's crystal and box gem. Some levels have an additional (non-box) gem. In this case, the ID for this extra gem is stolen from another level ID which does not have a box gem. These extra gem associations are listed below.
