Hidden Palace Zone is the fifth zone in Sonic & Knuckles (the eleventh zone in Sonic 3 & Knuckles). Hidden Palace Zone is where Knuckles hides and protects the Master Emerald. As Sonic, is the setting of a major turn point in the game's storyline.
The level begins at the end of Lava Reef Zone Act 2. After a few steps, the scenery changes into that of the Hidden Palace. After a short walk through the level...
As Sonic and/or Tails, you will fight Knuckles. After this fight, a cutscene occurs in which Dr. Robotnik steals the Master Emerald. Knuckles attempts to save it, but Robotnik electrocutes him. After this, Knuckles will lead you to a teleporter that sends you to the next Zone, Sky Sanctuary.
As Knuckles, the Zone merely acts as a pass-through to access the Sky Sanctuary Zone, albeit a different area than Sonic and Tails are sent to.
All characters enter from tunnels from Lava Reef, and exit through teleporters to Sky Sanctuary. Interestingly, Hidden Palace is listed as Lava Reef Act 4 in the Stage Select menu. This is not an unreasonable jump, as it shares music and overall apperance with Lava Reef Act 2, although the backgrounds are diffrenet as the Death Egg can be seen leaving the mouth of the volcano in Hidden Palace, while it was still stuck there in Act 2.
