We can all agree that this is the best Sonic game, but what's its best level?

Worst Sonic of the originals. Worse than Game Gear.

Why are 3 and Kunckles lumped in the same time? I have them on separate cartridges.
K is a very different game, too

That's not how you spell Aquatic Ruin Zone.
That level is a joke. You can easily avoid the water if you are smart.
Heck, you can even skip being underwater in Sonic 2 as a whole! Same is not true for Sonic 1.

Sonic 3&K was my favourite game for ages; but I think I've played em to dust. I can't think of a level that I like.

I usually hate Sonic CD for it's dogshit ways but maybe they were onto something by having multiple paths. When I play S3&K it's the SAME path every time.

Like, the levels have all these areas but they are punishment lower areas for suddenly stopping in midair after a ramp or something.

I guess I like Mania the most now just because it is a bit fresher and they have lots of paths.

Mushroom Hill or Sonic's Sky Sanctuary.

Didn't get a cart until the 00s. Now my records are safe and i can autistically blast through the game as Hyper Sonic or Turbo Tails any time i want.
My favorite is probably Sky Sanctuary. I'm not sure exactly why but it's the level i think of when i think of this game. Maybe its the metal sonic mini bosses or the music.

Hell yea. Best way to play sonic imo. The saturn controller really cant be beat. I still enjoy going to the museum and movie theater and all that. Lots of neat stuff and it takes you back to a time when the series was still great and there was a sliver of hope for the future

That's how it was going to be in the beginning but the game was getting too big for a cartridge and the Genesis. That's why the cartrige was built the way it was.

3&K will always be my favourite game, but I think objectively mania might be better. The death egg zone is definitely a better final zone than titanic monarch though, and the final boss run in sonic and knuckles is way better than mania. So OP maybe death egg zone is my favourite?
