Spears are objects that stretch up and down, in an attempt to hurt Sonic. The spears have also been used as a weapon in Sonic Heroes and Shadow the Hedgehog.

Game AppearancesEdit

Sonic the Hedgehog (16-bit)Edit

The spears appear in the underwater segment of Labyrinth Zone, often appearing in narrow passageways, where the underwater physics can make dodging them difficult. They also line the walls of the boss chamber, attempting to slow Sonic down.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (16-bit)Edit

They appeared in Metropolis Zone where they are inside of a box. They continually pop out of different sides, and are often found in large numbers, forcing the player to carefully time their jumps to avoid them.

Sonic 3D BlastEdit

They appeared in Spring Stadium Zone, the spears were used to block Sonic's way when you must collect Flickys and place them in the Giant ring to lower them. There are also little holes on the ground with spears in them that will rise up and damage Sonic if he steps on one.
