Ehh, I don't know if this will turn into a Full Guide for the game, so I 
thought at least I would give you juicy Mission and Boss tips! 
Basically, I am not going by the order of unlock, but by the "zone" 
names, like Misty Lake, and listing out the blue dot zones (Sonic only) 
and the red dot zones (Sonic and the Knights of the Round Table) 
Missions in two sections.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
1. FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
There are just certain questions that keep coming up again and again and 
again about this game I want to make clear at the beginning.

Remember, there is more guide after this section!!!

Q. How do I change characters?
A. To choose a character when you can (red dot missions), on the "YES NO 
BLACKSMITH" Screen, anywhere on that page press left or right to cycle 
through the characters.

Q. I'm stuck on Misty Lake go for the goal (or another level with blue 
energy balls "Will o' Wisps") what do I do?
A. To get rid of the Will o' Wisps, go into Soul Surge with the B 
button, and while in Soul Surge jerk the Nunchuk to do a kick. Doing 
this will set off reaction chains in this level and a few other levels 
too.

Q. In some instances, like with sword duels and beating King Arthur, 
what do I do to pass it?
A. Wait for the blue shaking Wii Remote to appear and well shake the wii 
remote at the correct time.

Q. How do I get the World Rings?
A. They are items you might receive in certain Legacy Levels, levels 
that are eventually unlocked like the rest. Here are their locations:
Yellow: Molten Mine
Green: Shrouded Forest
Red: The Cauldron
Blue: Titanic Plain
Aqua: Knight's Passage
White: Crystal Lake
Purple: Dragon's Lair

Q. What's the Golden Slime?
A. Sometimes the slime dripping from the ceiling is gold, but very 
rarely! When I saw it, I touched it just in case. You get Flag 10 in the 
Gallery for finding it.

Q. My sword doesn't harm robots in the Legacy levels!
A. You have to Homing Attack them by pressing A to jump then pressing A 
again near the robot.



~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
2. Mission Types and General Tips:
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Here are the types of Missions, I'll add more tips later, tell me if I 
missed a Mission type:

Go for the Goal: The only objective is the get to the end.
5-star: 
Try not to get hit and kill as many enemies as possible.
Try this technique, with Knight Style Sonic you eventually gain Soul 
Barrier Skill, while gives you Soul when you loose Rings. Now equip 
Poison Ring that makes you loose Rings. With lots of Rings or Enemies in 
a level, you can have infinite Soul!!! Run through at blazing speed and 
hit every enemy perfectly

Beat the Clock: There is a time limit to the stage, it's best if you are 
going through the first time to jump over enemies and stuff.
5-star: See Go for the Goal

Pass Through the Gate: Sort of like Beat the Clock, but you have to pass 
through Blue Gates to gain more time on the clock. Same tip as above. 
You can also fail this mission type by getting defeated.
Suggested Style: Cavalier
5-star: See Go for the Goal

Grind Challenge: Stay on the rail, or you fail the mission. Remember to 
jump at the right time.
5-star: Quickly

Mastery Stage: You only get a certain number of swings of your sword, 
it's a puzzle you have to solve, learn what you absolutely have to 
destroy.
5-star: Fewest swings possible, quickly.

Rush Hour: Avoid touching Townspeople, go slow at first. Use Mermaid's 
Tear, you can jump then attack townspeople and it doesn't count as a 
touch.
5-star: Speed. Here is a good technique, use Mermaid's Tear, and if you 
jump and attack, if you hit a townsperson it doesn't count as a hit, do 
this the entire way through.

Rampage: Defeat a certain number of enemies.
Good Items to increase score: Lollipop, Gladiolus, Dragon Fang
Suggested Style: Paladin
5-star: See Go for the Goal

Total Rampage: No way to fail this mission. You can use Rings to stay 
alive. It turns out, to get a higher score, it's important to chain 
enemies like the Chain of Enemies missions.
5-star: See Go for the Goal (except Deep Woods)

Ultimate Challenge: Exactly like Total Rampage, except you don't get any 
Rings to help keep you alive. It turns out, to get a higher score, it's 
important to chain enemies like the Chain of Enemies missions.
5-star: You can do the Dragon's Lair one by using Lancelot's final sword 
and using his special move, Chaos Blast during Soul Surge, and equipping 
points increasing items for defeating more than one enemy at a time or 
Gladiolus.

Diehard Challenge: Don't get defeated (though you can loose Rings)
Good time: Herb of Toughness
5-star: See Go for the Goal

Chain of Enemies: Get your Hits meter up to a certain point. Your hits 
meter will go down if you take too long slashing enemies in a row or if 
you get hit.
5-star: See go for the goal

Perfect Challenge: Don't get hit.
5-star: For the Titanic Plain one see Go for the Goal

Chain of Rings: Get a certain number of Rings in a row. If you don't get 
them quick enough in a row, then the chain will start over again.
Good score increaser: Flower Amulet
5-star: Have Ring Present and I think another skill gained, and get 
Rings for defeating enemies.

Collect Rings: Grab a certain number of Rings before reaching the Goal.
5-star: See Chain of Rings.

Ring-Giver: Give a certain amount of Rings to the townspeople. Make sure 
you do not get hit by enemies.
Suggested Item: Bright Red Ribbon
5-star: Give Rings to as many townspeople as possible.

Hide and Seek: Find a certain number of hidden green fairies.
Score Increaser: Dragon Scale
Suggested skill acquired: Hidden Fairy Lock-on with Sonic
5-star: Don't get hit, quickly, as many fairies as possible.

Special Challenge: Read the objective carefully

Legacy Stage: A classic Sonic level with springs and booster pads and 
regular Rings. The Eggman robots have to be Homing Attacked by pressing 
A then A again.
5-star: A balance between speed, rings and enemies

Defeat the Boss: Get into a fight, each boss has different strategies.
5-star: Don't get hit

Use guard against the giant wild boars or just jump over them.

Don't hit the townspeople props or you will get lower points.

You don't have to slice through the stones before the Goal.

5-star:
Items I had equipped:
Lollipop
Mermaid's Tear

I think the ability Ring Rescue helped, not sure, but I got a ton of 
Rings for this one.

Run and slice very quickly through the targets, it's best near the end 
to just keep pressing up and shaking the wii remote. Jump over the 
boars, keep a nice steady pace. Mermaid's Tear means it doesn't matter 
if you hit the townspeople things.

Unlocks: Crystal Cave Chain of Rings

Blue Energy Spheres (Will-o'-Wisps), when you encounter these, use Soul 
Surge by pressing the B button, then shake the Nunchuk to kick them and 
set off chain reactions in the level.

Target area, if you carefully hit all the targets and not the 
townspeople, you will be able to give rings to a couple of them. (Use 
Mermaid's Tear to do this easily) But there is a hitch, there is a will-
o'wisp in the middle that a stupid guy runs right into, hurting him 
repeatedly. What you need to do is while still kind of far back, kick 
it, this will also open up the blocked rail ahead.

Blocked rail at the end of target area, see above.

5-star: I had String of Pearls and Mermaid's Tear Equipped. I Soul 
Surged past most of the first part. I hit most of the targets quickly, 
getting a big hit chain. I didn't get hit, and I gave rings to all the 
townspeople.

Go straight ahead, and take the first jump fairies to the first gate. 
Now up ahead, see the blocks to the left with apples on them, go this 
way to find purple fairies, flick the wii remote at the correct time, so 
you can go a faster path. After grinding the rail, jump through the 
switch, and see the jump up ahead, get to it quickly or it disappears, 
jump off it then jump dash to a pole up ahead to go through another gate 
and purple fairies. Next gate just takes jump timing and purple fairies 
timing. You can run through a safe patch through the spiky balls, then 
some purple fairies will take you to the next gate. Now it's a straight 
shot to the goal.

Allowed 8 sword swings

First you will come to a breakable wall. Don't slash from the ground, 
instead to break through the wall in one swipe jump then attack. Up 
ahead, between two targets (ignore them) you will see a breakable stone 
column in front of a non-breakable pillar. To the right is a stone you 
can slash for red fairies if you need anything on your soul gauge. 
Slashing from the ground where the apple is, destroy the bottom 
breakable stone with one swipe. Now you can jump up to where the Will-
o'-Wisp (blue glowing ball) is. Jump up, then use Soul Surge and shake 
the nunchuk to kick it into the wall up ahead. Now go through the gap. 
Go past the switch, then eventually go up to the column of breakable 
stones four tall in front of the column of unbreakable stones. Jump up 
and with one sword swing break this column and you will reveal a switch. 
Jump up and press it, and jump fairies appear that will get you over a 
wall and to the Goal.

One section has a bunch of poles, avoid the poles to put out more fires.

5-star: I used Poison Ring with Soul Barrier skill to keep Soul Gauge 
up. When you use Soul to run fast, you actually put out the fires with 
your speed. Poison Ring trick can only be used when Sonic is leveled up

Horse-drawn carriage part easy, just slash when the enemies jump.

Jump up and attack to get rid of hornets.

Keep slicing to get out of cages.

Don't stand too long on the marsh or you will sink in, but if you keep 
jumping you will come out of it.

There are two poles that you have to walk between, because if you hit 
them you get sent backwards and past this a switch you shouldn't push.

After breaking down the second bridge support, you will find it is too 
short. Jump at the wall, then keep pressing the jump button to climb up 
it.

5-star: I used the Poison Ring when I had the Soul Barrier and Ring 
Present Skills to Soul Surge through. Poison Ring trick can only be used 
when Sonic is leveled up enough to have the Soul Barrier skill. Also 
when you Soul Surge (like Speed Break in Secret Rings) without enemies 
nearby, you will go fast and be invincible to obstacles.

3.c.6. Defeat the Boss: Lancelot Returns
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Unlocked by: Dark Hollow
Unlocks: Shrouded Forest Special Challenge

Start with 100 Rings

He uses his special moves Chaos Spear and Chaos Blast against you. I 
find that blocking or just jumping over the spears works well, you can 
just hit him while he is standing there, and often Chaos Blast after you 
hit him a few times in a row. Sword Duel prompts are hard to follow. Use 
herb of toughness. I find jumping attacks work pretty well. 

5-star:
Don't get hit.
Here is a modified strategy, Superfield sent me this and I expanded on 
it, takes good timing, Perfect Shield and Gauge Bonus helps a lot.
First start off by shielding against his first few sword attacks until 
your Soul Gauge is full. Now listen carefully, use Soul Surge when he is 
jumping away from the sword attack. You have to time it just right or he 
uses Chaos Blast against you too soon. Get in 6 perfect hits, then 
shield so Chaos Blast doesn't get you. Now block his Chaos Spear. Now do 
the same as before, filling up Soul Gauge with sword attacks. Now attack 
again as before, 6 perfect hits. Now he charges up a deadlier Chaos 
Spear, what you do is Soul Surge at beginning of attack, get in 5 hits, 
block Chaos Blast. He does this again, do again. Now he does an even 
stronger Chaos Blast attack, but repeat above. Now after this two times, 
he slashes at you with sword again, but with a different pattern, with a 
pause after he teleports. Fill up Soul Gauge again, but this time as 
soon as he teleports and is about to slash you again, use Soul Surge. 
You will only probably get in one hit before he Chaos Blasts, but he 
should be pretty much gone by now, just repeat above process till you 
win.

Commonly Encountered Items):
Medal of Lancelot
Flower Amulet

Unlocked by: Misty Lake Mastery
Unlocks: Titanic Plain Total Rampage

Can't fail mission. Get more stars the more enemies you chain together.

5-star: This is a hard one, it was the last one I 5-stared in the game. 
I used Knight Style Sonic, with Poison Ring/Soul Barrier trick and 
Lollipop. Poison Ring trick can only be used when Sonic is leveled up 
enough to have the Soul Barrier skill. This one has to be walkthroughed! 
First Soul Gauge through the first few groups of enemies, don't worry 
about getting perfect hits and quickly cover ground with soul between 
enemies, just keep swinging the wii remote till you get to a golden 
robot. Kill it, and watching above for the spikes, jump over the block, 
then use Soul again and kill two more groups of enemies. Now stop Soul. 
See the yellow fairies up ahead? They are over a wooden trigger for a 
trap, what you do is carefully jump over the trigger, then kill the 
golden robot, jump over the block. After the block, there's another 
wooden trigger, but it's broken or something, just Soul Surge till you 
get to another group of yellow fairies below an evil treasure chest. Now 
be careful, and jump a small jump between the wooden trigger and this 
treasure chest. Now you want to hit the ground, then soul surge two 
enemies. Stop Soul again, there's yet another trigger. Kill another 
golden robot. Now you are faced with a whole lot of triggers!!! What you 
do needs practice, but you soul surge from the air a bunch of enemies 
across. Now is the weird part. There is a column of switches with Will-
o'-Wisps on the other side. Kick the bottom four to kill a few enemies 
and then continue on ahead, the next part is pretty easy cause it starts 
from the beginning of the level again, just continue until time runs 
out.

5-star: Paladin Style Sonic with almost all skills unlocked. Lollipop

high, first part, jump over the logs to attack enemies with Soul Surge. 
When you get to the first set of traps, jump in between them and watch 
out, the second group of fairies has a wooden thing under them, step on 
it and you will be in a cage! So you have to jump over the traps quickly 
to keep your hit count up. Then repeat with the enemies. Second set of 
traps, this time Soul Surge through them, so you run so fast then they 
don't hurt you, then continue attacking enemies with Soul Surge until 
the very end. I got over a 50 enemy chain.

5 star walkthrough! Also try these items: Bright Red Ribbon to reduce 
the number of button inputs, and String of Pearls to get points for 
fairies!  

Slash the first two stones, then proceed to the first townsperson after 
picking up 20 rings worth of fairies, give then to him. 
Now climb the wall in back of him. There are blue jump fairies up ahead, 
you will see up above is one cluster of yellow faries and two clusters 
of blue fairies to the left, and one cluster of yellow fairies to the 
right. To get the fairies on the left, jump up, then when you are 
slightly below the level of the blue jump fairies up there, press left 
on the control stick to hit the wall and to slide down it. Now go back 
to the jump fairies on the ground, and this time hit the jump fairies up 
above the yellow ones you just got in order to hit the wall with the 
other yellow fairies. Get those, then climb that same wall up to a 
townsperson and give him some rings.
Now go to the right, jump over a gap and grab some more yellow fairies, 
then you will see another hole with yellow fairies on the right side of 
it, jump so you hit the wall, slide down the wall just enough to grab 
the fairies, then climb up the wall to the townsperson, give him some 
rings.
Hit the blue fairies in back of this townsperson, then you will hit the 
ground on top of more yellow fairies. Now go to the left past parts you 
have already see, and past the blue fairies on the ground, so you can 
grind a chain and end up at another large wooden jail area. After 
grinding the chain, grab the fairies, then you will see more above, to 
get them, fall down below to the grass and you will find blue jump 
fairies. Hit the wall, slide down it enough to grab the fairies, then 
climb the same wall to find another townsperson.
Now go to the left, and you will see fairies on the right edge of a 
large gap, and fairies on the other side, first grab the fairies on the 
other side of this hole, then go backwards, and slide down the wall of 
the hole, and you will hit even more fairies before you get to the 
bottom. Before you give Rings to the townsperson down there, go 
backwards a bit to pick up some more Yellow Fairies, Now give some rings 
to the townsperson down there.
Now drop down to the ground. See the breakable rocks behind you? Break 
them all to find more fairies. Now give Rings to the townsperson in 
front of you.
Climb up the wall in back of that townsperson, and ignore the jump 
fairies up there for now, to the left of them is a townsperson, you 
should have enough Rings to give. 
Now hit the jump fairies in back of that person, and then the other 
ones, use the jump fairies to get to the right and climb the wall, you 
will grind another chain. You will hit another wall, slide down it for 
some yellow fairies, then climb up it, go to the left for more fairies 
and then a townsperson.
Hit jump fairies in back of this person, then when you land head left, 
fall down to the ground. Ignore this townsperson down there, continue up 
the wall, and find more fairies to give to a townsperson near the Goal. 
You should have given 180 fairies and have a 5-star.

3.d.8. Special Challenge: Open all the locks
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Unlocked by: Misty Lake Pass through the Gate

Here is a walkthrough:
Hit the first set of fairies, then straight ahead, you will see blue and 
yellow fairies in the air, hit those, then climb up a wall. Slice 
through the air to destroy the red lock to free the townsperson, then 
attack the enemies ahead.
Now jump down, and destroy the enemies below. Now jump down and run 
through the grass avoiding the spears to get to the next wooden jail 
pulled by giants. Use jump fairies, then go forward, drop down, use more 
fairies, climb a wall, flip over some spikes at the top, then hit the 
jump fairies you see, slide down the wall, hit more fairies, climb a 
wall, then free another townsperson.
Jump over two holes, and find some enemies guarding a cage with three 
locks. Destroy the enemies first, then slash at the cage until the 
person is free, then more fairies will appear.
Now continue on, past the spikes again, this time not using the jump 
fairies, till you are back in the grass. Two giant knights ahead will be 
in your way, it's best to use Soul Surge. Continue on to the next big 
wooden thing. After hitting the jump and dash fairies, look carefully up 
ahead and you will see fairies in the air, jump on them to get higher, 
climb a wall, and free a person.
Watch out for spikes, see the hole in between the spikes, jump down 
there and you will find another three lock townsperson, fairies will 
appear after you free him that lead to the Goal.

5-star: Ehh, I just Soul Surged all the enemies I encountered with 
Gladiolus equipped.

You cannot fail this mission, but remember you have to destroy a lot of 
enemies to get more stars.

5-star: I had Poison Ring and Gladiolus Equipped, with Knight Style 
Fully Mastered. Basically Poison Ring Fills up Soul Gauge because of the 
Soul Barrier Skill. Now what you do is Soul Surge the enemies, in this 
challenge Perfect Hit to keep Soul Gauge from going down ever. You also 
want to use Soul Surge between enemies to cover ground quickly. A few 
times you have to jump over blocks, be prepared to use Soul Surge in the 
air. Poison Ring trick can only be used when Sonic is leveled up enough 
to have the Soul Barrier skill. You get lots of Rings because of Ring 
Present Skill.

there are more than 50, don't attack the ones too close to the people. 
Or better yet, use Mermaid's Tear to protect against reputation damage 
and swing away.

5-star: I used the Poison Ring trick with Knight Sonic, but this time I

Unlocked by: Camelot Castle Legacy

Collect 100 Rings

Pick up the red fairies, and see the blue Will-o'-Wisp ahead? Go into 
Soul Surge and use the Nunchuk to kick it, and it will bounce away, and 
guess what, boost fairies and Rings appear! 

After the first group of enemies before you get to the boost fairies, 
you will find a rock formation that is breakable to the right, slash at 
it to reveal hidden jump fairies, take this higher but more dangerous 
path with enemies for more Rings. At the end of this past, you will get 
to a Will-o'-Wisp, kick it to make a Rich Ring appear over a Will-o'-
wisp on a platform ahead, jump and then kick that will-o'wisp to make an 
enemy appear on a platform ahead, Soul Surge this enemy, then find 
another Will-o'wisp ahead and kick that one to break down a wall with 
another Rich Ring behind it. Now continue on, I suggest jumping over 
enemies, and you should have over 100 rings at the end.

Use Knight style, so Ring Rescue and Ring Present come into play, attack 
those enemies too!

5-star: Above instructions with Knight style with Ring Bonus and Ring 
Present, killed most enemies with Soul Surge, had about 185 Rings at the 
end. Also had Gladiolus and Flower Amulet Equipped.

3.e.7. Chain of Rings
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Unlocked by: Misty Lake Go for the Goal

Different paths, here's one path that works, but I don't get a 5 star 
for it:

Get the first three rings, then jump for the one on top of the rock. Now 
hit the switch and continue running past the enemies swerving for the 
rings. Now jump at the spike on the ceiling, he will auto jump between 
the two spikes. Continue on, jumping over some enemies to get rings. Up 
ahead, take the left fork. Dodge a bunch of enemies while running, up 
ahead take the left for again. Now see the jump fairies to the left, 
take then up to a switch that makes a rich ring (counts as 20 rings) 
appear. Continue on from there dodging enemies, hitting the switch. 
Remember, if you get hit by an enemy, you can continue a chain if you 
pick up another ring fast enough.

I think the skills Ring Rescue and Ring Present are involved, but if you 
have the right skills, hitting enemies with soul surge gives you Rings, 
which you can use to continue the chain.

5-star: Above route, hitting enemies when you have Ring Resuce and Ring 
Present. I got over 150 Ring Chain (jump over the second group of two 
enemies however, they slow you down too much.) and I had Flower Amulet 
equipped.

It's faster and safer at the beginning to grind the rail and destroy the 
mine carts or jump over them.

Tips for the narrow ledge: Jump over the first part of the ledge to skip 
a large part. Swing the sword to break the blocks. Take breaks by 
stopping when going on the ledge every once and a while so you don't 
fall off. And even quicker way, Soul Surge across it!

Secret Path: Look for a ledge next to the second railroad track, go this 
way to find a treasure chest.

Huge gap in the railroad tracks, after jumping in the air and Sonic 
twirls around, then you can jump again for a jump dash if you have to.

Hard rail part, remember you can change rails by pressing right and 
left.

Giant boulders, weave back and forth through them, jump and slash or 
Soul Surge.

5-star: I spammed the Poison Ring/Soul Barrier trick. Poison Ring trick

I suggest Herb of Toughness to loose fewer Rings. 

I 5-stared it! Don't get hit. Basically, you start off by running toward 
her then guarding. Then after she slashes away, there's an opening. You 
do this a few more times. I had Gauge Bonus +2, so I had Soul Gauge. So 
when she starts her flame tornado, start using Soul Gauge Perfect Hits 
so it doesn't go down as fast. Keep doing this, you will eventually hit 
her. I had enough Soul to finish her off.

If you use your sword on the block above the first blue gate, destroying 
it will reveal a treasure chest, but this does take some time away, so 
be careful.

It's faster to grind the rail, but you have to jump over minecarts.

Save a bunch of time, in fact, if you don't do this you probably won't 
make it! On the narrow ledges in this stage, you can either Soul Surge 
through them, or you need to jump over the first part to land about in 
the middle of the ledge. Toward the end, make sure the fire is not in 
the way.

Second grind rail, while on this rail look to the left and you will 
eventually see some breakable blocks, this is a narrow ledge, it leads 
to a hidden townsperson, but it's hard to go this way and make it to the 
end.

After the pillars of fire, carefully switch rails!

Swerve back and forth between the boulders at the end or jump and slash 
or Soul Surge.

5-star: I spammed the Knight style Poison Ring/Soul Barrier trick. 
Poison Ring trick can only be used when Sonic is leveled up enough to 
have the Soul Barrier skill. Soul Surged almost the whole way through.

5 star:
There is one townsperson after a bunch of obstacles! It's best to run 
through the course fast, you can run over pillars of fire and spikes 
when they are in the ground and doing this non-stop, don't jump! I 
suggest cavalier style, then slowdown for the townsperson. I you do 
this, you should get a 5 star!  
Another technique: If you have Crest of the King, try this: Line 
yourself up with the fire pillar that is second from the right. Then 
Soul Surge. If you do it right, you will touch the townsperson at the 
end and clear the mission!

5-star: Paladin Sonic, with Gauge Bonus +3 at least and Lollipop and

enemies so you can have a full gauge, it will help. I wouldn't suggest 
Soul Surging between enemies. Don't be that scared of fire pillars, if 
there is an enemy behind them, you can Soul Surge through them. The 
hardest part: There is two walls with flame pillars between, you have to 
very quickly jump on top of the first wall, hope the flame pillars are 
down, jump across the second one and hope you have enough time left to 
make it to the next group of enemies with your hit meter up.

Switch to Cavalier's Style.

Third minecart with boards sticking out, slash with sword.

Try to jump over enemies, if stubborn, easier to kill of you jump up in 
the air then attack.

After running through the buildings, there's a group of enemies you have 
to defeat to break a wall apart.

After breaking the wall, there's an alternate path, a narrow ledge to 
the left, it's slower that way however, but you get to a secret treasure 
chest.

There is a townsperson you can talk to, but it slows you down, not 
recommended for beginners.

Weave back and forth through the giant boulders or easier jump and slash 
or Soul Surge.

Basically, there are first a couple of attacks to avoid:

Sword, sometimes it slashes from one side to the other, basically swerve 
to avoid. Sometimes it comes straight at you, swerve again, and when 
it's slashing back and forth, run in between the slashes.

Beam Attack, these pink beams will paralyze you, run back and forth to 
avoid.

Charge attack, he charges straight down the middle, run to one side 
other the other.

Fill up Soul Gauge, when he throws the red things at you, slash them 
with your sword.

How to attack him: When you are relatively close to him and you have 
enough Soul Surge, use it. Then follow the blue wii remote command 
prompts to sword duel several times, now go in for the kill by slashing 
repeatedly.

Repeat above process once more to finish him off.

5-star: I found out that if you have the skills Gauge Bonus +2 at least, 
possibly Surge Rescue and ones that increase your gauge, you can attack 
at the start and very quickly, though I find if you attack him from the 
start the game seems to glitch and the first wii remote prompt often 
doesn't come up (correction by glitchhunter75, you can't attack because 
you don't have enough Soul Gauge, wait till the Gauge Bonus Skill is 
higher, at least +2.)

Rescue skills (I think those are the skills helping out), you will need 
it to finish this mission, so that you can use Soul Surge attacks to 
gain Rings when fighting the enemies and keep the chain going.

I'll walkthrough this one in the future but it's pretty straightforward, 
with skills above, you can attack the enemies and keep the ring chain 
going. Attacking the giant, use Soul Surge. Grab as many Rich Rings (big 
ones) as you can.

Sonic and Lancelot recommended because they can kick Will-o'-wisps and 
set off reactions, but Sonic's attacks are much faster. Gawain can 
destroy then with regular Soul Surge but can't set off reaction. 
Percival is lousy at this.

Destroy them with Sonic or Lancelot by using Soul Surge, but instead of 
using the wii remote shake the nunchuk to kick it out of the way.

5-star: I used Lancelot and his last sword, Chao Blasted with Soul Surge 
away at enemies with Dragon Claw and Gladiolus equipped. I had to be 
careful a couple of places not to get too close to Will-o'-wisp before 
using Chaos Blast, but if it's far enough away it's okay.

4.b.2. Mastery Stage
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Unlocked by: The Cauldron Beat the Clock

Allowed 10 sword swings.

Grab the yellow fairies, then very carefully jump over the lava gap when 
the geysers of fire are not present. You will see several enemies ahead, 
but only destroy the two by the wall with orange bases, when you do, 
hopefully with only one swipe, it will break apart, then a third one 
appears, get that too.

Climb up the wooden wall, you should probably ignore the enemies at the 
top, then fall down below. Lots of enemies, but see the four in the 
middle with the purple markings? Destroy those to break down the next 
wall. Wall after that, jump up then attack to destroy part of it with 
just one swipe.

Next group of enemies, destroy only the ones with orange bases, now you 
have reached the Goal!

5-star: I used Lancelot and his very last sword, he has a special move 
with that sword where he uses Chaos Blast during Soul Surge, basically I 
just used that to kill all the enemies quickly in a row. Wooden Belt and 
Dragon Claw equipped also seemed to help.

Commonly encountered items (minus enemy carried)
Tome of Medicines
Hardtack

4.b.3. Hide and Seek 
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Unlocked by: Dark Hollow
Unlocks: Cauldron Special Challenge, Shrouded Forest Hide and Seek, 
Knight's Passage Hide and Seek

Find 7 Hidden Fairies

Basically, you are climbing around on the wall, hitting switches to 
reveal fairies, here are some locations:

When first climbing up the wall, you will encounter 4 switches in a row, 
hit the third one from the left to reveal three green fairies below you 
on the wall. 

Climb up the wall again, and above the four switches to the right is 
another switch, hit to reveal a fairy on the wall to the left. 

Go past the spikes and hit another switch, reveal a fairy to the left, 
and one below some spikes, carefully maneuver around the spikes.

Keep going, two more switches, the one on the top reveals a hidden 
fairy.

After those two switches, next switch reveals a hidden fairy to the 
right.

If you hit the first geyser, you will be thrown back to the beginning, 
if you hit the second geyser, you will find a shortcut to the end.

5-star: I got the first 7 fairies quickly with String of Pearls and 
Dragon Scale Equipped. I also used the second geyser as a shortcut

Commonly Encountered Items (minus enemy items):
Lava Jewel
Opal
Topaz
Marigold
Broken Brick

4.b.4. Special Challenge
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Unlocked by: The Cauldron Hide and Seek

Escape the Cauldron

Recommended Items:
Paralysis Cure
Paralysis Immunity
Cure-all Broach

This is a puzzle, you have to hit the right geysers in order to make it 
through, some geysers send you backwards, here is a walkthrough:

Hit the first geyser to grab some fairies, then defeat some enemies to 
make a wall break down, go through here. You can grab the next geyser 
with fairies if you want to, but remember it makes some enemies appear. 
Keep going not hitting the next geyser till you reach the one with 
fairies, this will make paralysis enemies appear up ahead. Kill them and 
the wall crumbles down. Ignore the next geyser with fairies, it's bad, 
hit the next one instead to make a lot of enemies appear, defeat them to 
make a wall crumble down. Now it's a matter of ducking geysers and if 
you make it through you will make it to the goal.

How to get the switch in the air: Last geyser in the stage, it makes a 
treasure chest appear.

5-star: I uses Lancelot and his last sword. I followed instructions 
above, but I used Chaos Blast, and I had both Dragon Claw and Paralysis 
Immunity equipped.

4.b.6. Legacy 
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Unlocked by: Great Megalith Hide and Seek

Gawain can't Homing Attack, but in this level he makes it across the 
gaps better with his glide.

Large gaps, time your jump right to avoid the fire plumbs, other than 
that a typical legacy stage.

You might get a Red World Ring for completing this stage.

5-star: The difference in points seems to be smashing the hidden robots 
at the beginning, basically jump over the first booster ramp, and 
getting those tricky Rich Rings (big silver rings). I don't know if it 
made a difference, but I had lollipop and highland mushroom equipped.

5-star reward: Developer Data 11, Percival's weapon.

Calavier style Sonic or Percival good for this(but you can only use 
Sonic at first).

Jump over enemies first time to save time.

Hit the red glowing logs to be propelled into the air.

Jump dash over the thorn roots, these can be hard to get by.

The Knights of the Roundtable are unlocked after this mission.

5-star: Sonic Knight style Poison Ring/Soul Barrier technique works well 
here, might have a little trouble with the tree roots, but I was just 
fine even after hitting them a couple of times. Poison Ring trick can 
only be used when Sonic is leveled up enough to have the Soul Barrier 
skill.

5-star reward: Developer Data 4, Enemy 3.

Commonly Encountered Items (Except Enemy Carried, and there are more, 
but I hate this level and I'm only doing it once for now):
Mermaid's Tear
Aluminum Ore
Flower Amulet

4.c.2. Chain of Enemies
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Unlocked by: Shrouded Forest Beat the Clock

20 Enemies, have to get the hit meter to 20.

Recommended Items:
Philter of Tranquility
Vail of Calm
Cure-all Broach

Basically, there are a bunch of treasure chests. The evil treasure 
chests with the big tongues are not counted as enemies, the spider-like 
creatures are. When you are confused, the enemies turn into treasure 
chests. This one is hard. My biggest tips are to carry anti-confusion 
items, though you can slash at the butterflies, and to memorize where 
the enemies are before they turn into treasure chests, you can still 
attack then as treasure chests.

5-star: I used the Sonic Poison Ring/Soul Barrier technique, Sonic 
doesn't seem to get confused when he is Soul Surging. Poison Ring trick 
can only be used when Sonic is leveled up enough to have the Soul 
Barrier skill.

Commonly Encountered Items (except enemy held):
Ice Broach
Dart
Doll
Philter of Tranquility
Ham

Sonic once he gets hidden fairy lock-on recommended, soul surge the 
fairies with this skill.

Recommended Items:
Ice Broach
Fiery Quaff
Hot Fiery Quaff
Cure-all Broach

Roots especially hard to get by in this level. Jump dash with Sonic.

Jump off logs to grab fairies, which are easy to find in this level.

5-star: I used Lancelot and I had Dragon Scale and Dragon Claw equipped. 
I used his ultimate sword (the last one) but it's probably not 
necessary. I even got hit once, so the extra points from the items 
probably helped a lot.

Commonly Encountered Items (Except enemy carried):
Tome of Games
Giant Flower Seed (treasure chest?)
Dartboard
Dart
Herb
Daffodil

4.c.4. Mastery Stage
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Unlocked by: Shrouded Forest Hide and Seek
Unlocks: Shrouded Forest Legacy

Allowed 11 sword swings

Gawain not recommended cause he likes to swing twice in one hit. 
Lancelot does this sometimes too.

Take one swipe at the first enemy to crumble the wall, and do the same 
for the next enemy. The next part is trickier, what you do is gather as 
many enemies as you can around a red fire box, slash at the box, stand 
back, and let the explosion kill the enemies, you have to kill them all 
in the next section to break down the wall. 

5-star: I had Lollipop equipped, I think that helped. I also had the 
Ring Rescue skill and finished with tons of Rings because I hit the fire 
boxes quickly, and I finished with no hits and 4 swings left.

Common Items Encountered (except enemy carried, but actually in this one 
it seems you might get more weapons than you get from enemies):
Magical Moth Dust (Treasure Chest)
Giant Flower Seed
Dartboard
Doll
Daffodil

4.c.5. Special Challenge
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Unlocked by: Deep Woods Boss: Lancelot Returns

Don't touch the ground
Gawain recommended.

Basically I cheat, there is a messed-up log in this level that you don't 
quite land on, instead I glide around with Gawain till I hit jump 
fairies. Blocks don't count as the ground.

To correctly use purple fairies, wait till the ring constricts, then 
flick the wii remote when the blue prompt appears.

5-star: I did it with Gawain, basically I had Dragon Fang equipped. I 
got the first few jump and purple fairies, glided over the three 
enemies, then after that ignored the evil treasure chest and glided to 
the next set of purple fairies, got all the red ones, then when I 
reached the top of the blocks, I used his Soul Surge, Dragon Fang helps 
because you get a bonus for killing enemies in a row. Then I glided to 
the Goal.

5-star reward: Character voice 4, Lancelot Battle Mode

7 minutes on the clock

I recommend Cavalier Sonic or Percival for this one.

First time through jump over enemies to save time.

Help free the townspeople by breaking the locks, you know you wanna...

5-star: I used the Poison Ring plus Soul Barrier skills to Soul Surge 
through the entire thing. Make sure to get Perfect Hits, Gladiolus also 
helps. Poison Ring trick can only be used when Sonic is leveled up 
enough to have the Soul Barrier skill.

5-star reward: Developer Data 3, enemy 2. Lamorak available for Battle

Not too hard actually, you have to get 50 in a row without getting hit, 
but it's pretty straightforward.

5-star: Using Lancelot's Ultimate (last) sword and Soul Surge, I got 
like over 70 in a row. Also had points increasing items.

5-star: I used Lancelot's Ultimate Sword (the last one) and made sure to 
destroy surrounding enemies before I messed with the pillars. I also had 
Wooden Belt equipped.

Find 10 Hidden Fairies

Sonic with Hidden Fairy Lock-on Very highly recommended.

Green Fairy Locations, they appear in this level after hitting switches 
and disappear eventually:

1. On a red block
2. Jump from the jump fairies and just land naturally
3. On top of more blocks
4. More blocks again.
5. Quickly slash the first breakable block on the ground, then jump up 
to get it.
6. On a red block after a group of enemies.
7, 8 and 9 Use the jump fairies, after hitting one group of jump fairies 
you have to press the jump button again to get the next group. (easier 
with Percival)
10. On a block after hitting two switches in a row.
11. On blocks after getting 10
12. Slash first two breakable bricks then jump up (very hard to get)
13. Use jump fairies, then either press jump button again or use lock-
on.

5-star: I got fairies 1-4, 6-11 and 13 very quickly with Percival with 
the item String of Pearls equipped.

5-star: I somehow did it with Lancelot last sword, with items Lollipop

Didn't expect that 5-star at all. Did take first shortcut by attacking 
first group of robots and hitting a spring.

Cavalier Sonic or Percival recommended.

First of all, the path crumbles beneath your feet and you then have wide 
holes to go across, be careful!

Electric path, keep going at a steady pace, or the path will eventually 
give way.

5-star: I used the Knight style Sonic Poison Ring/Soul Barrier trick, 
with Lollipop also equipped. Poison Ring trick can only be used when 
Sonic is leveled up enough to have the Soul Barrier skill. Be careful, 
you can Soul Surge most of it, but remember where the crumbling road is, 
and after the first giant, there are falling stalactites that will hurt 
you if you do not slow down and let them fall first. Don't get hit!

Commonly Encountered Items:
Tome of Rings
Violet

4.e.2. Special Challenge
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Unlocked by: Dragon's Lair Beat the Clock
Unlocks: Dragon's Lair Rampage, Dark Hollow Boss

Dragon Slayer


Here's how to defeat the dragon:

First watch out for the crumbling pathway, Gawain is good at gliding 
past this. 

First dragon part, dodge the fireballs to get close to the dragon's 
head. Now when you are close enough, the character will jump up, and you 
slash away at the horn.

Second dragon part, now you have to dodge smaller fireballs and enemies, 
then repeat above when you get close enough.

Third, you have to dodge more enemies and stuff. Kill the first line of 
enemies you see going all the way across the path... cause the dragon when 
you get close now will push you back, and you often keep hitting these 
enemies when you do. Now be persistent, get close enough, and go in for 
the kill and destroy that horn. Also you can actually chop down one of 
the pillars at the end, and destroy the dragon that way too!

5-star: I used the Poison Ring/Soul Barrier with Knight Sonic with 
Dragon Killer skill. Poison Ring trick can only be used when Sonic is 
leveled up enough to have the Soul Barrier skill. I find out when you 
Soul Surge, over the ground and enemies, you are immune to the fire the 
dragon breaths! 

5-star reward: Dragon Developer's Data

Dragon Claw

4.e.3. Rampage 
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Unlocked by: Dragon's Lair Special Challenge

Defeat 12 Enemies

Use Sonic or Lancelot, Sonic is better, though before I knew how to kick 
the Will-o'-Wisps I somehow did it with Gawain...

Basically, you kick Will-o'-Wisp blue energy balls by doing Soul Surge 
and using the nunchuk to attack instead of the wiiremote. See the 
central pillars in the middle of the holes? Don't try to get the fairies 
on them, too hard. Instead use them as an aiming spot, because when you 
kick the wisps they will land there. Wait till the enemies line up with 
it, then attack with the wisp.

5-star: I killed 13 enemies, pretty easy I guess.

Commonly Encountered Items:
Rusty Gauntlet (enemy carried, only found in this mission)
Quasi-Magic Stone
Burnt Bread
Sapphire

100 Rings

Sonic or Lancelot. Lancelot takes too long I found out kicking the will-
o-wisps and the road comes out from under his feet. Ring Rescue Skill 
helpful.

Recommended Items:
Paralysis Cure
Paralysis Immunity
Cure-all Broach

First of all, get a few extra Rings at the beginning, there is a 
breakable rock formation that if you break it more Rings appear. 
Basically there are blue Will-o'-Wisps you kick in this level by using 
Soul Surge and shaking the nunchuk. They might reveal more Rings when 
you kick them. You should win if you Soul Surge thru the entire level, 
including using Soul Surge without enemies nearby.

5-star: Use Sonic with Paralysis Cure and Gladiolus Equipped. I got over 
200 Rings, used Knight style to get Rings from enemies, but don't smash 
them all or you will end up with a path ending. On the last rail, Soul 
Surge through the entire thing.

Try this:
Jump for the rings to the left first, then hit the jump fairies, then 
press left to hit the next jump fairies and you will end up at the top. 
Now grab all the rings on the ground in a circle. Start from the right 
of the wall, jump for those rings, hit the mushroom, press left to hit 
jump fairies, then off those press right to hit some more and make it to 
the top. Now grab the circle of rings on the ground. Now you can start 
with either mushroom, but I will use the right one to make the 
description easier. Jump on the mushroom, then keep pressing left to 
jump across the row of jump fairies to a higher mushroom, then basically 
repeat this pattern all the way up the wall.

Unlocked by: Dragon's Lair Special Challenge
Unlocks: The Cauldron Hide and Seek, Great Megalith Chain of Enemies, 
Knight's Passage Perfect Challenge, Deep Woods Lancelot Returns

Excalibur Sonic!
Start with 100 Rings.

First there's a new move, you will see at the bottom of the screen you 
can dodge left and right... not very useful IMO.

Anyway, first there is a barrier between you and the boss, slash a lot 
to get rid of it. 

Dodge the bubbles or cut through them, it's best to dodge. The bubbles 
do fill up your Soul Gauge a little though. 

When the bosses arm comes up, shake the wii remote when the prompt comes 
up. If you don't react in time, you get pushed back and you loose Rings.

Now your Soul Gauge has energy in it. Use Soul Surge to attack the boss 
and slash a lot.

If you wait to attack, she will try to slash you with her sword, but 
it's easy to avoid.

Repeat

That is all. Very simple boss overall

5-star: Try to get in as many Perfect Hits as you can. It's a certain 
rhythm you have to hit, not so you are shaking it wildly, shaken a 
certain rate. Sometimes your Soul Gauge will even go up a little.

5-star reward: Dark Queen Developer's Data.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
5. Nostalgia! yet again!:
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
(SPOILERS)

Here are some things in this game from other Sonic games:

Merlina looks just like Shahra from Secret Rings.

Other characters: Blacksmith is Tails, Lancelot is Shadow, Gawain is 
Knuckles, Percival is Blaze, Lady of the Lake is Amy.

Battle Mode: Also appearing in Battle Mode are Silver and Jet.

Fairies look like Chao heads with wings, Chao being cute creatures you 
could raise in the games Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure 2.

Legacy Levels are based on older Sonic games, with booster pads, springs 
and the fact you have to Homing Attack enemies.

World Rings you gather in Legacy Stages are from the Secret Rings.

Some of the Mission types are from the Secret Rings, as well as the 
large Rings with a star in the middle (Rich Rings)

I read this on the Gamefaqs messageboard and confirmed it, Merlina uses 
the same spell to summon Sonic that Erazor used to summon the Ifrit in 
Secret Rings.

Music from other games (tell me if I missed some, but I think I have a 
pretty good ear, or at least I caught the ones that I listen to all the 
time on my mp3 player, yep, I'm that kind of Sonic weirdo.):

Fan Art Videos Music is a remix of Sonic's theme from the Adventure 
series, "It Doesn't Matter."

At the very end of the game when Sonic encounters Amy, her theme from 
Sonic Adventure "My Sweet Passion" plays.

Blacksmith's shop is a remix of Tail's theme from Sonic Adventure 
"Believe in Myself"

Wearing the Medal of Sonic plays "What I'm Made of", if I remember 
correctly the final fight song from Sonic Heroes.

Wearing the Medal of Lancelot plays "All Hail Shadow", a song from 
Shadow the Hedgehog and Sonic 06, Sonic 06 version.

Wearing the Medal of Gawain plays "Unknown from M.E." Knuckle's theme 
from Sonic Adventure series, this is the Sonic Adventure version.

Wearing the Medal of Percival plays "Vela-Nova" the Sonic vs. Blaze Boss 
fight from Sonic Rush.

After gathering all the World Rings, you unlock a remix of the theme for 
Secret Rings by Crush 40 "Seven Rings in Hand."

Another fun fact: The gems in this game are the Birthstones; they appear 
in order in the Gallery (though I am not sure of December's)
