Instruction Manual Description

“	Robotnik's been digging for Chaos Emeralds in this eerie forest of flickering lights, glow-worms and stinging centipedes. Hang on to the ivy to discover escape routes.	„
—Sonic 2 US Manual, p. 14

“	The feel here is a haunted-house (obakeyashiki), isn't it. But we ended up making a cave stage instead. When making this map, first we had drawn the island, there was a cave, there was a lake, a mountain, a construction site, we were thinking of all these areas. Like Sonic would be here at first, and then he'd go someplace else. That was part of the cave.	„
—Yuji Naka

Crawlton - Centipede enemy, fixed to the wall and extends to attack Sonic when he approaches.
Flasher - Firefly enemy, moves around slowly and is invincible when flashing. Referred to as "Frasher" in Sonic Jam, which is Engrish for "Flasher".
