Underwater cliché
From Sonic Retro
(Redirected from Underwater Cliche)
Labyrinth Zone, the first example of the Underwater cliché.
Another of the common clichéd zones. All or most of the level takes place underwater and the use of air bubbles is critical. You'll find plenty of piranha badniks as well.
First appeared: Labyrinth Zone, Sonic 1
Also in:
- Labyrinth Zone, Sonic 1 (8-bit)
- Aqua Lake Zone, Sonic 2 (8-bit)
- Aquatic Ruin Zone, Sonic 2 (16-bit)
- Aqua Planet Zone, Sonic Chaos
- Hydrocity Zone, Sonic 3

- Tidal Tempest Zone, Sonic CD
- Dry Lagoon and Aquatic Mine, Sonic Adventure 2
- Ice Mountain, Sonic Advance
- Ocean Base Zone, Sonic Advance 3
- Water Palace, Sonic Rush
- Coral Cave Zone, Sonic Rush Adventure
An interesting note is that the cliché has been dropped in most recent 3D games, where falling into water immediatly causes the player to lose a life, preventing underwater play - circa Tropical Jungle (Sonic the Hedgehog (2006 game)) and Adabat (Sonic Unleashed).
