·Multi-source verified (88/88)

This boss is a large, stationary robot with a single vulnerable eye. It fires lasers and deploys smaller enemies. Remember, there are no rings in Death Egg Zone, so every hit is a life lost.

  • Phase 1: The robot's eye will open, fire lasers, and then close. It also deploys small, flying enemies.
  • Sonic Strategy: Wait for the eye to open, then jump and Spin Attack it. Use your Insta-Shield to deflect the smaller enemies or to hit the eye from a slightly safer distance. Dodge the lasers carefully.
  • Knuckles Strategy: Knuckles can glide towards the eye when it's open for a punch. His glide can also help him quickly move to avoid the lasers.
  • Weakness: The robot's eye, when open.
  • Reward: Proceed to the final boss.
