Mystic Cave Zone exists in this prototype as "Dust Hill Zone".
This appears to be a demonstration Zone created by Sega to test how certain elements would work. We see some strange, and downright insane, arrangement of objects that makes the gameplay extremely difficult. There are no Rings or enemies in this Zone, and debug mode is necessary to get pass numerous pits that would be otherwise impassable.
