Guide to Sonic Heroes Part 12: Learn how to navigate fast slides, defeat enemies like searchlights and capture robots, and master the pinball machine sections to progress.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Start by rolling down a fast slide, grabbing rings. Enter the leftmost Morph Ball Tunnel.
  2. 2
    Once you land, Tails and Knuckles will rejoin you. Defeat the searchlight robot without being seen; if spotted, more robots will appear.
  3. 3
    After defeating enemies, a door opens. Run through the tunnel, grab rings, and switch to Knuckles before entering the fan.
  4. 4
    Use Knuckles' Triangle Dive to ascend the fan. Fly forward to grab a shield balloon.
  5. 5
    Defeat the three enemies (two with tractor beams, one with a shield vulnerable to Blue Tornado).
  6. 6
    Head over the glass, break the cage with Knuckles to get the Special Stage Key. Jump with Knuckles and press B to break the glass.
  7. 7
    Go through the opening and slide down. You'll land on a casino table.
  8. 8
    To defeat the searchlight enemy here, use Knuckles to break its armor, similar to breaking glass. Avoid being spotted to prevent additional enemy spawns.
  9. 9
    Activate the revealed switch. Use Tails to fly across the dice to the card table. An alternate path exists if you fall.
  10. 10
    Activate the checkpoint on the card table and use Knuckles to punch the target.
  11. 11
    You'll be sent onto another high-speed slide. Collect rings and aim for BINGO by getting large numbers.
  12. 12
    At the end, enter a Morph Ball Hole leading to a pinball machine. Ascend the machine, collecting rings. If you fall below the flippers, you'll be sent back up.
  13. 13
    After Hell's Machine, destroy two tractor beam robots and a capture robot.
  14. 14
    Use green springs to reach the dice. Fly to the next platform when the dice is highest.
  15. 15
    Destroy the searchlight enemy (avoiding detection to prevent spawns) and continue.
  16. 16
    Fly across gaps using Tails and the dice. Hit the checkpoint and spring.
  17. 17
    Roll down the hill (Power Formation is recommended for rings) and drop to a second hill.
  18. 18
    After rolling down, springs will send you to another platform. Defeat the two robots.
  19. 19
    Stun the electric enemy with thunder shoot, then destroy it with Knuckles. Hit the switch to open the door.
  20. 20
    Run down the hall, use Triangle Dive at the fan, and float to yellow suspended platforms.
  21. 21
    Use the platforms to reach a balloon with Invincibility.
  22. 22
    Defeat ground enemies to reveal and activate a switch, opening another door. Listen to the ??? spheres about BINGO.
  23. 23
    Break the glass with Knuckles and drop onto another high-speed slide. Collect BINGO spheres and avoid holes in the middle.
  24. 24
    You'll land on another pinball table. Aim to go down the table.
  25. 25
    Bounce on disappearing platforms to cross an area with no floor.
  26. 26
    Defeat all enemies, then use green springs to reach the next platform. Use Light Dash to grab rings.
  27. 27
    Hit the checkpoint and punch the target with Knuckles.
  28. 28
    Defeat all enemies on the next platform, including the electric enemy (stun with Tails, punch with Knuckles).
  29. 29
    Break the first four panes of glass to find rings. Destroy the upper left pane.
