First level, Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (8-bit) Level cliché: Lava/Volcano cliché Boss: Doodlebug Mecha Music: |
Underground Zone is the first level in the 8-bit version of Sonic the Hedgehog 2. It is not what you'd expect of the first level of any Sonic game. Underground Zone takes place in a mine, where you ride minecarts to dodge spikes and lava traps. The boss of this level is known to be extremely difficult, especially in the Game Gear port as the limited playing field and speed of objects coming onscreen makes them difficult to dodge. You must use well-timed jumps to avoid both a meat-eating pincer and metal balls that Dr. Robotnik will toss at you.
While considerably less difficult on the Master System version, the Game Gear version has caused many headaches among Sonic gamers.
Instruction Manual Description
Hop on a runaway railcart for the ride of your life through showers of spikes and over daredevil jumps. Buzz-saw your way through to secret tunnels and hidden Monitors. Sometimes it's hard to get enough momentum for a good ground attack, but get a running start and keep trying!
