Since the "Catch the UFO!" stages are already used for Chaos Emeralds, Blue Sphere is instead used for collecting Medallions, which are required for unlocks. It also appears as its own game option in Sonic Mega Collection, Sonic Mega Collection Plus (which gave the minigame an official name for the first time), Sonic & Knuckles Collection for the PC, and Sonic Origins (another Compilation Rerelease for The Ninth Generation of Console Video Games).īlue Sphere makes a return in Sonic Mania as the Special Stage format for Star Posts. It is playable in Sonic Jam by simulating the lock-on procedure with the Sonic & Knuckles cartridge in the menu.
#BLUE SPHERES SONIC MANIA PASSWORD#
Upon completion of the stage, you'll be given a twelve-digit password for use when you play the game with the original Sonic the Hedgehog or the aforementioned Compilation Rerelease locked into the top slot of S3&K. Grids of Blue Spheres larger than 3 by 3 cells can be turned into Rings by collecting the Blue Spheres that make up the perimeter of the grid, and only those spheres.

Rings can be found on the stage as well collecting all Rings in a stage is required alongside getting all the Blue Spheres for a "PERFECT".

Yellow Spheres jump you five spaces forward. Star Spheres are bumpers that will send you moving in reverse in the direction you came from until you move forward or make a turn. Red Spheres are to be avoided touching one results in a Game Over. The object is to collect the Blue Spheres scattered throughout the wrap-around stage.
