How the N.Verted levels look like

The N.Verted levels are inverted versions of regular levels. Except for an unique graphics style present on each level, the levels don't differ much. Sadly, most of these graphics styles are very tiring for eyes. One of the levels is completely black, on another one each move generates a rainbow wave. You will also encounter a level that looks as if it was drawn with crayons.

The location of the gem is a significant difference between the regular and N.Verted levels. None of the gems is placed in the same spot as in the basic levels.

Application

You can obtain gems in the N.Verted Levels in similar way as in regular levels. The gems are mostly used for unlocking new skins.

You can get gems for:

1. Getting 40% of all Wumpa fruits available on the map;
2. Getting 60% of all Wumpa fruits available on the map;
3. Getting 80% of all Wumpa fruits available on the map;
4. Getting all the crates;
5. Completing the entire map while dying less than 3 times;
6. Finding the hidden gem.

Rewards

As mentioned above, the main reward is unlocking new skins. You need to obtain a specific number of gems in order to unlock a new character skin. This will enable your character to be always fashionably dressed.

Required for completing the game

No. You don't need to complete the N.Verted levels in order to beat the game. However, if you want to complete the game in 106%, then you must complete all activities, including maxing-out the N.Verted levels.
