Successfully complete the game in adventure mode with all characters to unlock the 'Mission Mode' option at the main menu.

When you are at Casinopolis, go to the slot machines and press Jump twice. This will make rings appear from the slot machines.

Go to Station Square and in the hotel, go up the stairs to the second floor. Stand at the very top step. Shoot your laser at the second button on the floor. Keep shooting to get coins.

Find a patch of dark green grass. Move over and stand on it, then twirl your tail around. A group of coins will appear out of nowhere.

As Tails, fly up and ring the bell which appears around the halfway point of Speed Highway. About 40 rings will pour out of the bell.

Go into to the entrance for Red Mountain, but do not go in all the way inside. Dig at the entrance and many rings will almost always appear.

With Knuckles in Station Square, dig repeatedly on any patch of grass (the best being the triangle in front of the hotel) until you find an electric shield. With the shield, go upstairs in the hotel and stand on the button that creates rings for Sonic to get his power-up. The rings will continue to replenish after being drawn into the electric shield. The rings will keep appearing until you have 999. Note: Getting the shield may take some time.

As Sonic, after you have the Light Speed Shoes, stand in front of the door on the left side where the Crystal Ring is located. Charge up your Light Speed Dash and it should hit the button on the other side of the door. Then, go in and get the Crystal Ring.

There is a Sonic Emblem in the Station Square Train Station that you can get with Tails. But there is also a way to get it with other characters (except perhaps Big). As you walk in, the Sonic Emblem is right above you. Walk to the train but do not go in. Instead, head right or left. There should be a small ledge, or railing there. Use the ledge to walk to a loft type object. That is where the emblem is located. Also, play as Knuckles and go to the other side of Station Square. Go to the hamburger place where the women wanted to make out with the man. There are four trees on each side. Go the right and dig in the middle of the tree to find an Emblem.

Go to the Mystic Ruins. Go to the water fall located in the middle of the Adventure Field. Push the stone that is jutting out of the wall to the right of the water fall. A silver egg will fall from behind the waterfall and float to shore. When it hatches, a silver Chao will be born.

Go to the Station Square area. Then, go to the area when you fought Chaos for the first time. Look to the side of the City Hall entrance to find egg shaped rock. Take the rock to the building to the left from City Hall. Walk to the window to see a golden Chao egg. However, if you try to take it the front door will lock. Replace the egg with the rock and the door will unlock, allowing you to leave with the egg. When the egg hatches you will have a golden Chao.

Go to the Egg Carrier. Then, go the jail area where Amy was kept. In the cell next to where she was held is a black and blue egg. Step on the switch to open the door. Take the egg to the garden. When it hatches, it will be a dark grey and dark blue Chao.

Get in a Chao Garden with some animals. Find a Chao that is not moving or eating something. Get very close to it and release the animal. The Chao will take its power. After that, the animal will just stand there. You can reuse that animal again.

On Sonic's first stage, when you are propelled upward by a booster at the base of the level's highest ramp towards the end of the level, spin dash up to gain extra air. You should see a later part of the level. While falling, go towards there. If done correctly, you should make it, cutting ten seconds off your time.

Go to the Egg Carrier crash site. Go to the cockpit where you will find the switch. Press it and go outside. The shape will look different. If you want to get to the inside from the front of the ship, use the monorail or complete the Sky Deck stage. You only need to destroy the capsule. If you want to change the ship's shape again, do it in the exactly same way that you did it in adventure mode. The ship should be its normal shape again.

Go to the Casinopolis zone as Sonic and enter the shower area. Get into one of the stalls and push against the wall to give Sonic a shower.

Approach the little computer in front of the blue pinball machine in the Casino Metropolis. Press the 'Talk' button in front of the computer. It will say 'get 100 coins or less' and you will get a surprise.

After completing Casinopolis as Sonic or Tails for the first time and after Robotnik a.k.a. Eggman flies away, you will see Cream the Rabbit from Sonic Advance 2 fly around the Train Station. Exit the Train Station using the front door. Look up and you should see Cream flying. Fly up to her with Tails for a better view.

On Emerald Coast (level 1) go back when you are at the beginning, and then go to the right. You should find three capsules. Hit all of them and you will get 30 rings. When you are at the green hill around the middle of the level, do not go up it. Instead, go around to find three capsules. Break them all to get 1, 5, 10, 20, or 40 rings.

As Sonic, go to the Emerald Coast level. Go to where you find the second extra life capsule. Do a light speed dash into the slope from behind. Sonic will jump very high and then fall to the ground.

When you are in the area where Big's home and the Lost Ruins are located, use Knuckles to fly to the very back end of that location. You will see a small cliff. When you get off the mine cart, it will be directly ahead in the distance. Once on the cliff, you will see a glowing light. With the Gloves, you can do an attack much like Sonic's 'Ancient Light', only with Knuckles.

Tail's workshop is located all the way at the top of the mountains in the Mystical Ruins. Go to the very top and look around to find an extra life. Use the spin attack to zoom over and collect it.

After you see the ID card for the big shed that you go to Speed Highway 6, go all the way back to where Knuckles has his first stage (Speed Highway 1). Go left to find an egg-shaped rock Use that rock in the store in Station Square with the Gold Chao Egg in the window. Take the gold one off the platform and put the rock on that same platform and the doors will unlock and open.

When on the whale stage(s), run over a speed ramp as soon as it appears. Then, do not press anything on the controller; the CPU will do the rest.

Get The Ancient Light. Do the Light Speed Attack on Chaos 0 and he will be defeated with one hit.

Wait until Eggman drops his freeze bombs. Then, use the homing signal to turn his bombs into eggs and throw them into Chaos' mouth. He should freeze. When he does, attack him. Repeat this as many times as needed.

When playing as Knuckles, get the Fighting Gloves then go to the trial (if you have already completed the game). If you have not completed the game, you can find the Fighting Gloves behind Big's house -- climb the wall, then go right until you find a ledge. When you fight Chaos 6, freeze him, power up, then get close to him and release the button. Repeat this two times.

As Sonic, use the Light Speed attack on him. His health gauge will go down until only half is remaining. Do the attack a second time to kill him. As Knuckles, use the Maximum Heat attack on him.

When starting, get as many rings as possible. Then, go over one of the speed tracks to gain speed. Once you are glowing blue, speed straight for Perfect Chaos and you should hit him. Repeat this as many times as possible.

You can hurt Perfect Chaos without going top speed, although you have to be fast. Go onto the road and speed up. Stop moving during that until you are not in a Blue Shock ball, then quickly move into Chaos. If done correctly, you will hurt him without going at maximum speed.

As Super Sonic, go to the fight with Perfect Chaos. Instead of hitting Chaos head on, go to either side of him. Try going into Chaos through his arm. If done correctly, Super Sonic will fly up and smash Chaos on his chin. Note: This does not do any more damage than the usual attacks.
