'''Quartz Quadrant''' is the fourth round of [[Sonic CD]]. Set in a semi-underground mine, you are almost completely surrounded by quartz and other minerals. Since this level is a bit more cramped than most levels, it will be harder to get to the past. Can you do it? The bottom of the stage is mostly flat though. This makes it easier to get to the end quicker. There is a gimmick in this level which is being able to control which way the conveyor belts go. You can do this by running past a sign with a arrow on it. Each time you run past it, it will change the direction the conveyor belts will go.

Quartz Quadrant is the fourth zone of Sonic CD. Set in a semi-underground mine, you are almost completely surrounded by quartz and other minerals. Since this level is a bit more cramped than most levels, it will be harder to get to the past. The bottom of the stage is mostly flat though. This makes getting to the end and/or past easier. There is a gimmick in this level which is being able to control which way the conveyor belts go. You can do this by running past a sign with a arrow on it. Each time you run past it, it will change the direction the conveyor belts will go.

Instruction Manual Description

Look out for falling rocks as you race through a treasure trove of glittering gems. Touch the arrow signs to change the direction of the moving conveyor belts. Spiny snails, slimy caterpillars and cannon-toting beetles will try their best to slow you down!

Difference between Time Zones

Present
Qqpresent.png
The present is a large mining facility, with contraptions built in, such as conveyor belts. There is still a large amount of quartz to be mined, and some is just lying around.
Past
Qqpast.png
The mine of the past uses more simple machines, and most everything is made from wood. Badniks are more scarce in the past, but that doesn't mean that it won't cause...
Bad Future
Qqbadfuture.png
...the future to become a wasteland of smoke-filled skies! Most of the land has become Robotnik's cities, and he still has his badniks in the same position as before.
Good Future
Qqgoodfuture.png
If you manage to stop Robotnik's production of robots, the future will turn brighter. The mining has stopped, and the exposed crystals shimmer in the background.

Enemies

  • Kumo-Kumo - Springy spider that leaps high into the air
  • Sasori - Scorpion-like badnik that has a fire laster on it's tail
  • Noro-Noro - Snail badnik that squirms slowly along the ground
  • Kemusi - Caterpillar badnik
