Hill Top Zone
Fifth level, Sonic the Hedgehog 2
Number of Acts: 2
Boss: Hill Top Zone Boss

Hill Top Zone is the fifth zone in Sonic the Hedgehog 2. It uses the same graphics from Emerald Hill Zone. No one knows for sure why they had this zone clone.

Hill Top Zone has extended level blocks, such as Star Light Zone start loops, and Green Hill Zone spin tubes.

The zone also contains lava, and has caverns where you can be trapped during earthquakes (due to a layer of ground moving up and down). Before the boss in Act 2, there is a room full of rising lava and platforms to the exit at the top. This is commonly known as the "volcano".

Instruction Manual Description

Lava boils from volcanoes and earthquakes shake the ground. Spring for the rings on teeter-totters and blast through underground tunnels and caverns.

Villains

Enemies

  • Rexon - Plesiosaur enemy, sits in lava and throws fireballs at you. Once destroyed, its body can be used as a platform to stand on.
  • Spiker - Cone enemy, launches its cone at you when you jump over it.
  • Sol / Ghora - Spherical enemy, surrounded by 4 fireballs which it throws at you. Referred to as "Sol" in the instruction manual, and "Ghora" in Sonic Jam.


Differences between Wai Beta and Final

  • Sonic doesn't spin when going through tunnels.
  • There is no earthquake sound effect.
