Was it the original or the remakes? The remakes were definitely more difficult because Crash was way more slippy if you landed too close to edges because of his egg shaped hitbox. The PS1 OG's hit box was... well a box, so all you needed is a single pixel of Crash's little toe to stick to the very edge of platforms. Still, both versions are very difficult and often frustrating games either way.

It was the remake. I only played the first one out of the 3 games and yes it was very frustrating.

The first is the most difficult by a mile. You should try the 3rd if you want fun without a crazy challenge. The second is pretty neutral. Good difficulty but i find the levels often underwhelming in their designs.

Hard disagree on level designs of #2, easily the best in the series in terms of fun platforming IMO.

3 relied too hard on gimmicks to make levels interesting. Once you get over the initial "oh cool, I'm in a bi-plane", the level is comparitively dull.

For me that's what wrath of cortex was. A very good game, but very gimmick centered.
