In order to get the Blue Gem you have to finish this entire level without destroying a single crate! Then the blue gem spawns at the very end, in front of the level exit. You can check how many crates you destroyed by pressing / . It must say 0/139 all the way to the end. You are not allowed to use Checkpoint Crates either! The lack of Checkpoint Crates is what makes this hard.
Here are a few tips to make it easier:
- When using the purple mask to do the spin, it is best to do a slide-jump first. Press > > / > > to slide and then activate the purple spin. This will boost you up higher than just pressing / . This is in fact mandatory in some sections.
- Halfway through the level be sure to step inside the Bonus Path Platform (the “?” Platform). This creates a Checkpoint without having to destroy a Checkpoint Crate.
If you destroy a crate by accident, simply let yourself die. No need to restart the level. Just dying and respawning will reset your crate count. Again, you can always check with / when in doubt. Avoid attacking enemies as they could fly into crates uncontrollably. It’s best not to attack any enemy.
When you reach the end with 0/139 crates destroyed the blue gem will spawn at the level exit. See the image below.
Make sure you step into the level exit afterward to unlock the Sapphire-er Acquirer trophy or achievement. That’s how you get the Blue Gem in Crash Bandicoot 4!
