Dear Readers,
Today I'll talk about the final stage in the game, about facing Dr. Robotnik and the endings.
After getting into the cart, jump on to the platform and up through the pipe. Keep DOWN pressed and you'll go into a room with a ten ring box. Continue through the pipe.
I find that when you come out of the pipe, if you press left and then right you'll land on the ledge, as opposed to the elevator platform. This can save on time if you're a speedrunner or something.
Dr. Robotnik has this walker robot that fires bouncy bullets so it's worth trying to get the ring box earlier. After over a dozen hits he retreats but don't celebrate just yet. He goes offscreen and tries to ram you. If he hits you, you'll die, even if you have rings. It takes a bit of timing and guesswork but it also only takes one hit for him to be defeated too.
If you have all 5 Special Stages completed and their respective emeralds collected, Dr. Robotnik drops the final 6th emerald and you get a credit sequence with Sonic running around inside the emeralds. It also has "AND YOU", being the player, in the special thanks, so that's quite lovely! I love it when games do this!
The bad ending has Sonic falling flat on his face, which is quite startling! It displays TRY AGAIN. Not the nicest ending to get!

23 Sonic Chaos - Electric Egg Zone Act 2, 100 Ring Strategy
Dear Readers,
Today I'll talk about how to find what's probably the biggest ring cluster in the game!
Bounce on the spring and into the pipe, going right and landing on the platform. Jump up and right towards some crumbling floor blocks. At the third group of 6 rings, drop through and that's where the massive cluster is! Careful of the flying enemies around here too though.

22 Sonic Chaos - Electric Egg Zone Act 1, 100 Ring Strategy
Dear Readers,
Today I'll talk about this stage and about how to get 100 rings in it.
Pretty dangerous zone as you can expect with spikes and lasers everywhere. First, head to the left where there are 2 ten ring boxes. Then head right and into the pipe, riding it all the way up and left and jump before the platform you land on drops. Make your way right past the lasers and skip the speed booster. Jump a little bit off the cliff and you'll find a line of 6 ten ring boxes. If you miss any of them you'll fall through the pipe but not to worry, as underneath there's a massive cluster of rings and springs, the biggest you'll find in this stage. Hopefully that'll be enough to get you 100.

21 Sonic Chaos - Aqua Planet Zone Act 3, Boss
Dear Readers,
Today I'll talk about this short stage and about defeating the boss.
Lots of corridor springs here. When the corridor turns upwards, try and avoid bouncing on the spring mounted on the left wall by holding right and land near the invincibility power up. Spin dash into it and you'll go through the wall before bouncing up to the top, where you'll find a handy ten ring box.
The boss first appears as those skinny hopping things we saw earlier in this Zone. They can all be defeated by holding a spin dash charge and letting them jump into you, which is quite nice. If you spin dash in the right spot you can get multiple hits by trapping their bounce. After this, the boss, a big round spherical bouncing robot comes along. It can be dealt with quite easily until it loses its top, where you'll then have to deal with missiles. Just one more hit after this will destroy it, leaving you free to run on to the final zone!

20 Sonic Chaos - Aqua Planet Zone Act 2, 100 Ring Strategy
Dear Readers,
Today I'll talk about this stage and getting 100 rings in it. Lots of ten ring boxes to be found and this makes it easy!
First collect the rings you and try to bounce to the highest part of the stage. Don't worry about bouncing past the ten ring box here as there are plenty more up ahead. Jump to the right and onto the loop to find some rings and 6 ten ring boxes. Jump to the next platform and stay up high. Jump further to reach another platform with 4 ten ring boxes. That should do the trick!

19 Sonic Chaos - Aqua Planet Zone Act 1, 100 Ring Strategy
Dear Readers,
Today I'll talk about this stage and about getting 100 rings in it.
For a water level in a Sonic game, it isn't too troublesome! Nice view of the clouds as you start right at the top parts of the stage too. You should make an effort to stay up high as well for collecting rings. If the worst comes to the worst, there's an extra life at the very bottom left corner of the stage, allowing for some practice.
Continue going right, being careful of the little hopping enemies, until you get to a cliff. Carefully jump across the platforms with two rings each above them and over past the spikes. The platforms will crumble here too. When you get over the spikes, don't hit the speed booster. Just take it handy. Collect the 3 ten ring boxes and be careful of the hopping enemies below. On this part, go right slowly towards the edge and jump on the small platform that almost looks like the background. From here, you can jump right if you want and collect 4 ten ring boxes on top of the loop and another ten ring box across the gap. Alternatively, you can jump up and left to get the Rocket Shoes and collect this big long string of rings which should get you up to 100. If not, then go back for the ring boxes.

18 Sonic Chaos - Mecha Green Hill Zone Act 3, Boss
Dear Readers,
Today I'll talk about this tricky short stage and about the boss.
First, try to climb as high as possible by carefully using the small platforms. Just above the second treacherous bridge, there's a ten ring box. It can be collected with a normal jump from the right side, which is a lot safer to jump from I find.
The boss fires projectiles while climbing up and down on the tree. It can be beaten by continually bouncing on it. Rings come in handy too if it ever gets awkward.

17 Sonic Chaos - Mecha Green Hill Zone Act 2, 100 Ring Strategy
Dear Readers,
Today I'll talk about this stage, which can be pretty tricky when trying to get 100 rings.
From the start there are two platforms that float upwards. The left one leads to a few rings, and the other leads to the upper path, where you'll find a good ring filled path but with treacherous bridges. There's also a cluster of rings below, so pick what you can get.
Beyond the vertical corkscrew there's a platform that'll take you upwards to a hidden 10 ring box. Just below the next and final treacherous bridge, there's a massive cluster with about a third of the stage's rings so take your time around here.

16 Sonic Chaos - Mecha Green Hill Zone Act 1, 100 Ring Strategy
Dear Readers,
This zone is quite tricky and easy to die in. I like it a lot because of the music. It even has a little segment that can be heard in Sonic CD! I love the colour of the sky in this level too, which is a pretty sunset and the start of the nightlife! Whatever nightlife can be found in a mechanical Green Hill Zone anyway.
With regards to collecting 100 rings, It's not done very easily, but there's a handy extra life to help you practise by breaking the blocks under your feet at the start. There are a few rings scattered below, but most of them are above on treacherous sloping bridges and you can climb back up by dropping on the spring below the vertical lines of rings. There's a handy 10 ring box under the last bridge and springs at the end which can help.

15 Sonic Chaos - Sleeping Egg Zone Act 3, Boss
Dear Readers,
Today I'll talk about this stage and the boss at the end.
You can get to the boss easily simply by holding right, but it's more fun to use the spring! In any case, be sure to pick up the ten ring box on this path!
The boss is a springy robot thing you can easily defeat if you can keep bouncing on its head. If you can't, then keeping some rings helps to deal with the bullets it fires at you.

Dear Readers,
Today I'll talk about getting 100 rings on this stage, which is quite easy as there are lots of ten ring boxes!
From the start, collect the rings you can see and jump on the spring to climb upwards. You'll see 3 ten ring boxes up here. Spin dash to the right to find 2 more ten ring boxes, then continue further up the wall to find another 4 ten ring boxes. Between the rings you've collected, that should be more than enough to get through to the special stage!

13 Sonic Chaos - Special Stage 5, Purple Chaos Emerald
Dear Readers,
Today I'll talk about this stage, another one with pipes that may seem tricky at first.
A handy tip for this stage is to keep pressing pause so you have some chance to get your bearings or prepare for the next pipe turn.
What I like to do is go right into the pipe and ride it all the way to the end. Then, on going up, take the second pipe left and immediately take the next pipe down, which can go by a bit fast. From here there's no need to do any turning, as the pipe takes you directly to the room with the purple chaos emerald. There's a spring here that bounces you back into the pipe, but as long as you don't touch in any direction, you'll bounce back into the room again. Time it so the spring doesn't bounce you back into the pipe and the final special stage's emerald is now yours!

12 Sonic Chaos - Sleeping Egg Zone Act 1, 100 Ring Strategy
Dear Readers,
Today I'll talk about this stage and give a strategy for collecting 100 rings. This zone can be tricky because of a lot of brittle breaking blocks. At the same time though, these blocks can be fun for springing through from below.
From the start, try to climb as high as possible. This leads to some rings and an extra life, so you can reattempt getting 100 rings if you mess up. To the right is a ten ring box and jumping off to the right, there are another 4 ten ring boxes. Jump up over to the next ledge and carefully cross over on the floating platform without falling. There are six rings after this to collect before dropping through the crumbling platforms. Jump over the gap to collect 6 more rings and try to reach the top of the hill without making the platforms crumble. There's a ten ring box here that should be enough. If not, there's another one beneath it.

11 Sonic Chaos - Gigalopolis Zone Act 3, Boss
Dear Readers,
Today I'll talk about the boss in this zone. This stage itself is short and pretty easy flowing. I like the way you can just roll through the corridors after the loop.
The boss is a tall blue bug bot with round segments. Kind of like a Pokey from the Mario games. It's not difficult at all, just try and keep bouncing on its head.

10 Sonic Chaos - Special Stage 4, White Chaos Emerald
Dear Readers,
Today I'll talk about getting the white chaos emerald on this stage, which can be tricky, due to the wide pitfalls and the emerald itself being up high.
First, bounce up to get the Rocket Shoes and fly back under. This usually brings me in front of a wall I can break and then continue to break one level lower. After this is a block that freezes time, which comes in very handy here. After this is another breakable wall, the end of which will spring you upwards. Go to the left for some more Rocket Shoes. There's a nice long line of ten ring boxes after this. There are two wide chasms on either side though so use a good running jump if you don't have the Rocket Shoes. Be careful of the springs on the steps. Drop down after this hill to get more Rocket Shoes and fly over the next hill, but don't fly further because there are more Rocket Shoes here that you'll need to reach the high ledge at the very end with the white chaos emerald. I find this special stage the trickiest in the game and it often takes many attempts for me to clear it!

9 Sonic Chaos - Gigalopolis Zone Act 2, 100 Ring Strategy
Dear Readers,
Today I'll talk about this stage and getting 100 rings for the special stage.
Collect the few rings in front of you and try to jump after the first loop onto the second loop. If you don't land on top, there's a floating platform past the second loop where you can climb back up. You'll have over 30 rings at this point. To the left of the second loop and further left past the spikes are four 10 ring boxes past the bridge and another three 10 ring boxes underneath it. This is my favourite way of getting 100 rings here.

8 Sonic Chaos - Special Stage 3, Green Chaos Emerald
Dear Readers,
Today I'll talk about the best way to complete this stage. It's a bit weird to see invincibility power ups in front of every pipe... There aren't even enemies here. I don't get it.
Anyway, there's not much to it, only hold UP when you go through the fifth pipe. Sonic will take a turn up and around into the chamber with the green chaos emerald.

7 Sonic Chaos - Gigalopolis Zone Act 1, 100 Ring Strategy
Dear Readers,
Today I'll talk about this lovely night time cityscape stage with its starry sky. The best way to see the stars is to climb as high as you can go. That's where most of the rings are too!
From the start, keep running and past the spring until you come across four 10 ring boxes. Then go back and bounce up. Go right until you come to a floating platform that goes left and right. You can use this to climb up onto the upper left platform, which leads to another five 10 ring boxes. Alternatively, you can do the Super Peel-Out under the floating platform to run right up the ramp and get on top of the loop, where you'll find another four 10 ring boxes.

6 Sonic Chaos - Turquoise Hill Zone Act 3, Boss
Dear Readers
Today I'll talk about the boss of the first Zone, which is pretty easy!
On the way to the boss, if you take the highest path, you'll find a corkscrew with a few rings there.
The boss itself is a big Lady Bug bot with a spring on its back. It's pretty easy to beat, Just keep doing super spin dashes into its side!

5 Sonic Chaos - Special Stage 2, Yellow Chaos Emerald
Dear Readers,
Today I'll talk about this stage with the ascending pattern of platforms, which can be confusing to navigate due to the screen size.
There are two sets of platforms here where you're jumping from left to right as you ascend. The left set leads to some big rings. The right set leads to the yellow chaos emerald. On the right set, there are springs you should use at the highest point of their bounce in order to climb up and get the emerald. If you'd like to try and get the rings too, there's a time stopping block along the way that'll help.
It can be frustrating when you make a leap of faith and you just fall all the way to the bottom! This happened to me a lot!
