You may know each of the 11 levels of Sonic 2 at the heart, but that does not mean that you have squeezed the game to the maximum: hidden in the depths of Mystic Cave is the Hidden Palace Zone , a level Secret, originally discarded and unpublished in consoles. At least, even Sonic Origins. And in Vidaxtra we will help you get to him and beat Eggman.

How to get to Hidden Palace Zone

As we commented, to access Hidden Palace Zone the only requirement is to reach MUSTIC CAVE ZONE 2 . We can cross all the worlds in the traditional way until we reach it or take a shortcut and do the trick to activate the secret menu. You choose.

As a reference, to access the secret menu you have to enter the addresses above, up, up, down, down, left, right, left and right ( ↑, ↑, ↑, ↓, ↓, ↓, ←, → → → →, ←, → ) On the press start screen before starting the game. If you do well you will hear a sound. In addition, from the same menu and through the Sound Test you can activate Super Sonic. At the end of this guide we give you more details.

Once we have started playing in Mystic Cave Zone 2 we must advance always keeping ourselves in the lower area of the screen. In the gameplay that we put up you can see the route in a simple way, but the essential is to reach a specific point of the level and Do not activate a specific switch.

If we continue advancing through the lower display zone we will reach a kind of draw bridge guarded by a few badnicks in the form of a firefly. It is easy to recognize because, basically, the only way to continue is activating the lever lever in a jump. What if we don't activate it?

As if we were an Assassin, and without activating the lever , we throw ourselves making a jump of faith to the hole in front of the bridge and, after a long fall, we will end up in the secret area of the game: Hidden Palace Zone . A WARNING: Do not try to do this trick in previous versions of Sonic 2.

How to get to Robotnik and defeat him in Hidden Palace Zone

Hidden Palace Zone is a secret level and of a single zone that was designed by SEGA itself to be included in Sonic 2 , however it was discarded before the game launch in 1992. Decades later, Sega It would complete it and will officially include in the review for iOS and Android of the game, being Sonic Origins the first appearance of this on PC and consoles.

Hidden Hidden Palace Zone has a little of all the previous worlds, but aesthetically it does not resemble any. In fact, there are Dinosaur-shaped Badniks, aquatic areas and a handful of traps that play with perspective. However, it is a small great gift for fans of the supersonic hedgehog.

In turn, Hidden Palace Zone is also a labyrinth in which it is easy to get lost or not knowing where to move appropriate.

At a point in the Ecuador of the screen we will see a replica of a teacher emerald, very similar to those that Knuckles protects in Sonic 3. We can pass by, but it is not about decoration, but the key to continue : If we destroy it in a jump, the spring will appear that will raise us to the area where to get to the final part of Hidden Palace Zone.

Robotnik will appear on the screen once we reach what seems like a kind of organ with huge tubes carrying a slider to match the theme of the screen that looks like a huge tromb1. The trick to overcome it is also a classic:*

Fundamentally, Robotnik has two routines in Hidden Palace Zone:

  • In one of them they will rain up to four balls with spikes that will end up rising when the water level rises and then explode just after. The idea is to dodge them when they fall and get away from them until they explode. Easy.
  • The other routine implies the fall of a single much greater ball. This will impact the area in which we are moving, so it is not convenient for us to stay still, and then it will continue to exploit, leaving a powerful column of water.

To beat Robotnik we must dodge the balls of any size when falling. Once the large ball is on the floor, jump sideways so that it is still just under robotnik so that, when exploding, the water column coincides with the trajectory of its slider, causing it to go down to our level and, already put, attack him without regard.

At the end Boss of Hidden Palace Zone It is basically to repeat this process two or three times, depending on how accurate we are. Once the slider is built, Robotnik will take those of Villadiego and we can continue with the adventure, appearing in oil ocean zone 2.
