The Mach Speed section in Kingdom Valley.
Mach Speed sections are a feature exclusive to Sonic's gameplay in Sonic the Hedgehog (2006 game). The game engine itself drives Sonic forward at breakneck pace, leaving the player only in control of left/right movement and jumping.
Mach speed occurs four times in Sonic '06, namely:
- Wave Ocean, pursuing Doctor Robotnik's Egg Carrier,
- Crisis City, evading a car-throwing fire cyclone,
- Radical Train, chasing after Robotnik's locomotive,
- Kingdom Valley, rushing towards Aquatic Base.
These sections were notoriously difficult to control for many players. Crashing into any obstacles at all would result in Sonic losing rings, which could easily thwart efforts to achieve an S-rank on any level.
