10 Powerful Video Game Villains That Died In Stupid Ways

9. Tikimon - Crash Twinsanity

A huge totem pole god who is impervious to basically any of your attacks, Tikimon initially appears one of the most imposing bosses in the Crash franchise. But no rat holding a gun or steroid-chugging Frankenstein knock-off has ever stopped Crash before, and so neither will a sentient two-faced tiki statue.

However, it might take you a minute to register how to actually kill Tikimon, because it's so ridiculous that your brain simply might presume it wouldn't work for a little while. Because what you need to do is wait until the creature roars at you, and then throw your nemesis-turned-temporary-rival Dr. Cortex into its mouth.

Because Tikimon's one weakness is apparently indigestion, repeatedly throwing Cortex into his oesophagus straight up kills him.

It's suitably strange given the rest of the wacky antics of Crash Twinsanity, but you can't help but feel bad for Cortex, since he's unceremoniously thrown into the rocky stomach of an angry god twice in the space of twice minutes. This is the same game where he finds his mother in what appears to be a burlesque club, so it's not the weirdest thing that happens to the poor villain in the game.
