The end game credits are missing in this version; after counting the final score, the screen with the South Island in the background remains and an adapted version of the Green Hill Zone music plays. The game consists of six worlds (called zones), each made up of three acts. In each act, the player must survive enemies and obstacles while progressing through the stage to accomplish a goal within the time limit. In the first two acts, the goal is to cross a Bonus Plate at the end, a signboard which then spins on its post to reveal a possible random bonus such as extra rings, lives, or access to a Special Stage.
