Planet Wisp is the fourth stage of Sonic Colours for the Nintendo DS. The bucolic homeworld of the multicoloured Wisps, this micro-planet has been captured by Dr. Eggman for his Amazing Interstellar Amusement Park, and is currently 'under construction'. This means that the Doctor hasn't quite finished strip-mining or slash-and-burn logging the place, though his giant machines are certainly getting on with it; as such, the level juxtaposes a forested background with cold metal scaffolding on which Sonic actually platforms.
There's an emphasis on the subterranean in this level, with Sonic busting up the fat egg's mining operations through use of Yellow Wisp Drill power.
