Sonic the Hedgehog 3/Angel Island Zone

A tranquil jungle island that is set ablaze by Dr. Eggman's swarm of Fire Breaths after Sonic and Tails arrive.

Act 1

Special Stages

1. Near the start of the zone, just after the first drop, turn left. Do a spin dash to break the rock blocking the entrance to a hidden room containing the special stage ring.

2. Further into the act, go down the first drop and break the rock to the left. In the hidden room is a spring. The special stage ring is above the spring.

In a cutscene, right when Sonic and Tails are about to proceed to act 2, a Fire Breath appears and sets the zone on fire.

Act 2

Special Stages

1. After you go through the narrow shoot at the very start of the stage, just keep pressing right and you should break into the hidden room after you exit the shoot.

2. When you get to the waterfall with the rocks that appear and disappear, fall down into the pool below. Do a spin dash up the right wall to find the hidden room where the special stage ring is.

Boss

Sonic and/or Tails/and/or Knuckles faces off against the Fire Breath that burned down the zone earlier. Its basic attack is to use its flamethrower that sets the ground on fire, watch out! It will also shoot missiles into the air that come falling down towards the player. After 16 hits, the Fire Breath is defeated and explodes. There will then be a capsule on the player's right, which the player must stand on top of to open the capsule door, setting the animals free.

In Knuckles' version, since he is unable to reach the platform that leads to the upper section, he must break a rock that leads into the lower section where he can fight the boss.

During the Hydrocity Zone transition, Knuckles presses a button causing Sonic and/or Tails fall down.

In Knuckles' version, he just jumps down.
