Winged Fortress Zone is the 18th level in Isle of Genesis. It is based on Wing Fortress Zone and Sky Chase Zone from Sonic the Hedgehog 2 as well as Flying Battery Zone from Sonic & Knuckles.
Layout[]
Act 1 is based on the Sky Chase Zone as the player rides on Tails' Tornado biplane, engaging in a SHUMP-style gameplay as it is essential to blast away many of the enemies that populate the skies. The player must fight through many Badniks, as well as members of Bowser's Koopa Troop and Dr. Wily's Army, while aboard the Tornado. After that, the player lands on Robotnik's battleship.
Act 2 plays similarly to its origin as the player travels between an upper or lower path of the battleship. In addition to facing more enemies and other hazards, such as Rocket Engines, the player must also deal with a strong gust of wind pushing them on the left that can catch them off-guard. At the end of the path, the player jumps inside the battleship interior.
In the last area, the player will battle Silver Sonic, who serves as the level's boss. After Silver Sonic's defeat, the player will land at their final destination of Isle of Genesis: Robotnikland.
