Something goes wrong and Dr Ivo Robotnik kidnaps Tails and Sonic must get ever Chaos Emerald to save his new little buddy. The Chaos Emeralds are hidden in the second act of every level.
The Stages:
Underground Zone
This stage is underground, you'll meet lots of spikes and Badniks like Crabmeat. Use the Railscarts to move through spikes but jump off in time before you fall into a pitt of lava. When you make it to Act 3 jump into a Railcart and try to make it to the spring to get up where you'll see mountains in the background. Fall down to the lava pit and before you hit it Robotnik will catch you while he flies the Egg-O-Matic, he'll bring you to a boss who is very easy but hard at first. Bouncing balls will fall towards you and all you need to do is jump over them, the ball will hit the Boss and injure it. Soon Robotnik will come down to try and chop you up and you should jump over him and he'll destroy his creation, next hit the hovering machine and the animals will be free.
Sky High Zone
This level is mostly high in the sky, there'll be lots of springs hidden behind clouds that you can jump on. Most useful thing of the acts are the Hang Gliders that let you use the wid to glide through the air. Press the D-button left to make Sonic go up and press the D-button right to make him go down. The boss of act 3 will be kinda hard, at first you'll make it on a pad of clouds and little Badnik birds will hatch outta eggs, jump on the eggs before to make it so they won't hatch. After destroying them you'll fall and see the mother bird who shoots energy balls outta her mouth, jump on her head enough to destroy her but be careful of the other little birds, next hit the hovering machine and the animals will be free.
Aqua Lake Zone
One hard level is this one that's all underwater, make sure you get bubbles to keep yourself from drownding. Some bubbles will be used to float inside them and get to high areas underwater, be careful that the spikes don't pop them. Robotnik's new Badnik boss will be a seal like animal robot, it'll bounce something off it's nose and when it does attack it enough and it'll be destroyed, next hit the hovering machine and the animals will be free.
Green Hill Zone
Not much of a challenge here, kinda a break from the last level. Make it to act 3 and fight Dr Robotniks new creation which is a jumping and rolling pig. It'll jump and when it does either jump under or over it before you get killed, hit it a number of times and you'll win, next hit the hovering machine and the animals will be free.
Gimmick Mountain Zone
In this level your inside a mountain, you'll find Flywheels right away and to use them press the D-button right to make the wheel speed up, left to make it slow down. When enough speed press button 1 or 2 to jump to the next wheel or to another area, the wheels kinda look like giant CD's. Act 3 is the hardest since you never have any rings, the boss will run toward you and when he does jump over him. He'll hit the wall and after he does then it's safe to jump onto him, after you destroy him hit the hovering machine and the animals will be free.
Scrambled Egg Zone
This level is a giant maze of tubes that you'll need to use to get to other locations. Act 3 will be easy to get to the boss who'll be none other then Robotnik's biggest creations Silver Sonic who looks slightly like Sonic. Silver Sonic will jump all over and when he stands straight then you can attack him by jumping on his head. Hit him and destroy him and a emerald will appear, grab the emerald to finish the level.
Crystal Egg Zone
The final stage, only way to save Tails is to have all six Chaos Emeralds. This level isn't that tough to complete, get 1-UP's and rings to be safe when you get to Act 3. In act 3 you'll have your final fight agianst the big bad Dr Robotnik to save your partner Tails. Stay in the giant tube that'll make you spin around, jump out when it's safe and the room is clear from Robotnik's dangers. Hit Robotnik and jump back in the tube because he'll try and attack you, do this and you'll destroy him and save Tails and win!
