A '''Multicolor Gem Path''' is a special type of [[Gem Path|gem path]] that is featured in ''[[Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back]]'' and in ''[[Crash Bandicoot: Warped]]''. The functions of the multicolor gem paths in the two games are identical: They consist of a gem path broken into segments, and all five [[Colour Gem|colored gems]] are required to complete the path. The first segment of the multicolor gem path can be accessed as soon as the player obtains the [[Blue Gem|blue gem]] in both games. At the end of a multicolor gem path is a [[clear Gem|clear gem]].

===='''''Blue Gem Segment'''''====
As [[Crash]] enters the multicolor gem path, floating [[mug|extra lives]] can be seen, indicating how difficult the path is. They are obtained throughout the whole gem path. It consists of mostly hydraulic presses and two floating [[Sparky Tentaclebot Unit]]s also in the level.

The green gem platform transports Crash frontwards to the next segment. This area focuses on the shrink ray obstacle, along with a couple of enemies: the four-legged robot, more sparky tentaclebot units and a single hydraulic press.

===='''''Yellow Gem Segment'''''====
===='''''Yellow Gem Segment'''''====
The yellow gem platform takes Crash straight up to a shorter segment. This section utilizes the player's ability to time jumps from under hydraulic presses to heated transports. There are only two transports, making the segment seemingly easier than the rest.

Crash will ride the red gem platform at this point, which will take him in the backwards direction. This segment features the combination of both shield lab assistants and shrink rays. If the player isn't careful, the [[Lab Assistant|lab assistant]]s will push the player onto the target for the shrink ray, causing Crash to immediately begin shrinking out of existence.

===='''''Purple Gem Segment'''''====
===='''''Purple Gem Segment'''''====
The purple gem segment is the arguably easiest of all, because it lacks any obstacles, and only transports Crash to the exit of the level, where the player can pick up one of the hardest clear gems in the game.
