Ranking Every Classic Sonic The Hedgehog Level From Worst To Best

24. Sky Chase Zone

Sonic Ranking 3
SEGA

Sky Chase is one of Sonic's most novel levels, but it's also one of the most sedate. After the monstrosity that is Metropolis, it almost seems like a reward, a breather, and the placid, dreamy music confirms that.

It's good to see Tails do something useful, although Sonic's supposed best bud has no qualms whatsoever about flying him straight into a robotic turtle. What's going on with those robotic turtles anyway? Is there a species of airborne terrapins I'm entirely unfamiliar with?

Another important question: what happens to the poor animals Sonic liberates from these floating badniks? I suspect it can be summed up with one word: "splat".

Benjamin was born in 1987, and is still not dead. He variously enjoys classical music, old-school adventure games (they're not dead), and walks on the beach (albeit short - asthma, you know). He's currently trying to compile a comprehensive history of video game music, yet denies accusations that he purposefully targets niche audiences. He's often wrong about these things.
