  • I personally love Titanic Monarch zone, once you’ve realized what to do and where to go, it’s very fun.
  • So Eggmanland is the actual number 1 on a top 9 list. That makes sense. It's the only stage in any Sonic game I've ever played that I haven't finished, which I plan to one day remedy. Also, I'm 97.5 percent certain that these lists are confusing Lost Impact with The Doom. Pretty cool seeing Sandopolis on here. Before Sonic Origins, I don't think that zone has appeared on any top ten Sonic list...like ever...
  • Completely agree about eggmanland, but i had fun with it despite the difficulty. Actually, the difficulty makes games more fun for me. That said, i do not know how y'all beat it in ½ an hour, i took 2+ hours on my first time. Also, i think Cannon's Core deserves a mention more than Final Rush, both very hard, but Cannon's Core is way mire difficult.

    Labyrinth Zone. A hair-pulling hard level I actually got passed.
  • Eggmanland was definitely something I couldn't get passed when I had Sonic Unleashed. What made it more of a hassle was that I had it for the Wii console. So obviously it was a tough playing the game at times, especially since the battery on Wii remote kept dying.
  • @mlee4467
    So as a kid I played a beat every sonic game that came out. Eggmanland is easily the hardest level I’ve played. At first I thought I had just lost my way lol but after further research I see it’s not just me

    Shadow The Hedgehog Is A Game That Gets Better The More You Play It. Because As You Memorize The Levels And Learn Where Everything Is. All The Annoyances And Colvolutions Disappear For The Simple Fact That You Know How To Avoid Them.

    Gonna defend titanic monarch zone for a minute. The ruby mist isn’t so much a hazard so much as it is the game being forgiving, the ruby mist that sends you back a bit is always in places where there would otherwise be a bottomless pit, so instead of killing you, the game takes you back to try again without taking a life, and all other instances of the stuff just finish or start one of the four mini-levels in act 2.

    Some of these levels are hard, others seem like you just plain suck. I’ve played Final Fortress numerous times and I’m so confused as to what you’re talking about in regards to losing your teammates constantly. To my knowledge, the robots that are known for taking teammates away aren’t even present in that level, so that’s just blatant lying. In regards to lost impact, just because something is long doesn’t mean it’s hard. A task can be long and tedious, but that doesn’t make it objectively hard. And in regards to Sonic 06, just grow up. You’re comparing a game that was clearly not finished to games that were. The levels should be ranked and put on the list based on level design and the elements that were intentionally put there to add to the difficulty. Levels that are hard due to bugs or lack of polish should be a list of its own, that way they fall into a fair criteria to be judge on
  • Final Chase is more difficult than Final Rush; especially no thanks to the wonkyness of the gravity cylinders. Heck, Final Rush is a good final level for hero story in general.
  • I found that if you didn't find the Air Necklace in SA2 for Knuckles, his level in the last story ark was very difficult.
  • @CheyenneG99
    Lost Impact, Final Rush, Final Fortress and EggmanLand are a nightmare!
  • @Tam3603
    I personally really like Eggmanland. Probably because I mastered the level, which, if you do that, feels AMAZING
  • Most of Sonic 06 isn't too bad. Wave Ocean is diabolical. Radical train is a bit annoying too. Rest of the game is actually quite fun
  • The Death Egg Zone is so cool, though! One of my favorites in the OG trilogy for everything, especially the music. Believe it or not, it’s also easy to beat once you know your way around 😁. I mean it! There’s a straightforward path through, and once you figure it out, the zone’s a walk in the park.
  • Seriously, the tune of Final Fortress in Sonic Heroes remains me of Sonique's Feels So Good.
  • Eggmanland is easily number one when it comes to difficult Sonic levels. Not just the HD version.
