Revision as of 14:23, 2 June 2009

Template:SA2Level Wild Canyon is the second stage in the Hero storyline of Sonic Adventure 2 and the first stage playable with Knuckles.

Purpose

As it is a hunting stage, the goal, as with Sonic Adventure, is to find the three shards of the Master Emerald hidden in that level.

Knuckles' Mystic Melody upgrade can be found here - though it requires the Shovel Claw to access.

Appearance

Wild Canyon is a desert and wind themed level, with sand ground, Egyptian references, wind currents and windmills.

The major gimmick of this level is the "Altar of Wind", a giant air tunnel with a strong wind to blow Knuckles upwards. Other level specific objects are stone apartments that hold various items, giant statues holding boxes that can be dug into, stone blocks that can pushed along tracks and old treasure chests that can be smashed.

Level divisions

Wild Canyon is divided into two major sections.

The first section is called "Chamber of Wind" and it’s where Knuckles first starts. It’s located inside some ancient ruins and is composed of two major levels, the bottom floor and a second one closer to the ceiling. Riding the wind current will allow Knuckles to reach the section above, which is unreachable otherwise.

The second section is a dry and reddish canyon setting, which is called "Stone Dance Hall". It branches into two hallways opposite each other, the "Lonely Statue" area and the "Sphinx Head" area. To get back to the lower level, there are holes in the ground level of 'Stone Dance Hall.'
