Icecap Zone is the fifth zone in Sonic the Hedgehog 3.

It contains an outer "snow" level and an inner "cave" level, and uses a background-changing effect to switch between those.

The zone is theorized to have been based off of Sonic 2's Hidden Palace Zone, as the bridges and glowing orbs underground resemble those of Hidden Palace.

Instruction Manual Description

Things will get pretty chilly as Sonic and Tails slide their way through this arctic wasteland. Be sure to smash open blocks of ice to reveal power-ups and hidden passageways.

Mid-boss

This boss will gather 8 stones from the ground, swing by you a few times and then throw them into the air. This is your chance to hit it 2-3 times, and then the stones will fall and you must avoid them.

Boss

Robotnik's connected a platform beneath his Eggpod this time. He'll try to hit you with bursts of dry ice, alternating between a blast directly behind him, followed by one showering the platform.

You must stand on the platform, avoiding the dry ice blasts, and hit him. After 7 hits, he comes down and the platform breaks off, and you'll need to hit him 2 more times to finish him off. As Knuckles, the platform will be constantly retracting and expanding.
