What do Crystal Shards do in the game?

Just like other collectibles in the game, the Crystal Shards form a Special Request mission. They are used to power the hover car. Collect all three of them and visit the Dimension X Hangout on the world map to turn them into 200 points.

To get the Multitasker achievement, players will have to complete every single such Special Request in the game, all of which are collectible-focused.
