Ranking Every Sonic Special Stage

There's 30 different stages in Sonic games, and I decided to rank them all as an excuse to play a bunch of Sonic!

I’m glad to see Sonic Mania’s special stages made first place but on a related note, I feel it’s worth mentioning that the special stages in Sonic Mania Encore deserve recognition; the increased difficulty and bigger maps made it all the more rewarding when you finally got all seven. In Mania mode, most of the emeralds can be acquired at a Mach 2 Speed if you take the right route whereas with Encore mode, the only emeralds I was able to get at Mach 2 were Stages 5 and 6 while the others required Mach 3 because of how far away the UFOs start from Sonic.

It’s nice to see Sonic Mania has reigned supreme in not only being the best 2D Sonic game, but with having the best special stage ever. Such a great game 👍

This was really interesting to see the Special Stages from the Sonic series being ranked from worst to best. And I was really surprised that the Sonic 3 and Knuckles' special stages didn't reach the #1 spot because in my opinion, those were literally the greatest special stages in all of Sonic games!
