'''Amazing Arena''' is a level from [[Knuckles' Chaotix]]. When the player first enters the level, the arena is pitch-dark. On-screen cues point the player to switches that turn on the lights and many of the level's moving gadgets. Should the player reach the goal or boss battle without turning on the power, the level will not count as cleared.

A sub-boss is in each level of Amazing Arena, although the player need not face it. The sub-boss consists of a large Eggman robot with a detachable head that hovers around the arena, and flailing arms that target the player. The sub-boss is defeated after 1-4 hits, depending on how late in the day it is. Finishing the boss quickly results in a large ring reward, while taking too long causes the level to continue with no prize.

At the end of Amazing Arena 5, Robotnik appears in a contraption with arms that extend to try to hit the player. The contraption also projects images of badniks from the level onto a large screen behind the arena; the projections become real and attack the player. The battle ends when the contraption is destroyed and the Dark Ring powering it disintegrates.

Amazing Arena is a one of five main stages in Chaotix that make up Newtrogic High Zone. It is an indoor fun house that doubles up as a deadly labyrinth.

During development the stage was known as Amazing Area and Amazing Zone.

Overview

When the player first enters Amazing Arena, the arena is pitch-dark. On-screen cues point the player to switches that turn on the lights and many of the level's moving gadgets. The player is required to turn on the lights in order to finish each Act; should they reach the goal or boss battle without turning on the power, the level will not count as cleared, and they will be forced to return to the beginning and find the switch.

Among the many contraptions found in the arena, the floating UFO-like elevators will carry the player to different areas, and large trampolines will catapult the player like a spring when stood on for a second, the altitude varying by the trampoline's colour. This stage is also unique in that it features a sub-boss that is fought in the Sound Rooms that are reached at specific points.
