## Description/Appearance

### Act 1

Act 1 is a magma filled crater with carnival rides. The dirt is mainly skulls, and skulls are in most of the Act, making it look like a ghost carnival. Roller coasters are a gimmick in this Act. The coasters are most likely based off of the roller coasters from Asteroid Coaster, a planet in Sonic Colors (including the NDS version and the remaster).

### Act 2

Act 2 on the other hand, is burning in flames and the atmosphere is literally red hot as rock music plays. The lava in this Act appears more often then in Act 1. The roller coasters are still active.

## Story

After escaping Gusty Greenhouse Zone with a piece of the Mythic Star, Sonic and Tails arrive at Carnival Crater Zone. As they explore the magma carnival, Eggman, once again, appears with his Egg Crusher. The duo, again, defeat Eggman. As Eggman flees, Sonic and Tails follow until they come to a wall. As Tails flies up with Sonic, lava begins rising. Sonic notices the lava and screams. Tails, confused, looks down and sees the lava rising to. As Tails flies for his and Sonic's dear life, they reach the top and jump just before the lava can burn them to death. As Sonic slides on the dirt, he finds a river. As Tails approaches him, they both rush off.

## Bosses

### Robo-Skull Head

The Robo-Skull Head is the Minor Boss of Carnival Crater Zone, only appearing at the end of Act 1..

### Egg Crusher (Phase 1)

The Egg Crusher is the Major Boss of Carnival Crater, only appearing at the end of Act 2.

During phase 1, Egg Crusher has 2 attacks:

* **Slam Dead:** The Egg Crusher uses the hand that is the closes to Sonic and Tails to follow them from above, before locking on and slamming into the ground.
* **Egg Palm Slam:** This attack is preformed after the Slam Dead attack. The Egg Crusher will move both hands to each side of the arena. The hands will follow Sonic and Tails' height before locking on and are thrown. If the hands are high in the air, they will go pass each other. If the hands are high in the air, they end up getting stuck, allowing Sonic and Tails to attack.

To finish phase 1, Sonic and Tails must destroy each hand. Both hands have 4 health. When one hand is destroyed, a fire shooter begins to work on the side the other hand is still working.

### Egg Crusher (Phase 2)

In phase 2, the platform that Sonic and Tails are standing on for the battle is destroyed, leaving Sonic and Tails falling.

Egg Crusher only has one attack:

* **Blast Ball:** Egg Crusher shoots a sturdy ball out from one of it's sides. The ball homes onto Sonic and Tails before perishing to fire.

In order to defeat Egg Crusher, Sonic and Tails must hit it 6 times.

Hint: when falling, Sonic and Tails float up to the Egg Crusher, make sure to be on the side where the sturdy ball isn't going to be blasted from. When Sonic and Tails reach the side, press the jump button to activate ball mode, then hit the Egg Crusher in ball mode. Beware if Sonic and Tails activate ball mode to early, they descend down.

## Trivia

* The Zone may be based off of Asteroid Coaster from Sonic Colors, including the roller coaster.
