Welcome to Twinkle Park!


— Twinkle Park announcer, Sonic Adventure

Twinkle Park (トゥインクルパーク Tuinkuru Pāku?) is an Action Stage that appears in Sonic Adventure, its enhanced port Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut and the 2010 remaster of the game. It is the fifth Action Stage played as Sonic and the first Action Stage as both Amy and Big. It is an expansive theme park located in Station Square. As with most other Action Stages in its games, Twinkle Park has different level designs for each character, which have three optional missions each.

Description[]

One of the major tourist attractions in Station Square,[1] Twinkle Park is a gargantuan theme park with a Disneyland-like feel. The scenery looks like outer space, while the park itself is set near the massive Twinkle Park Castle (トゥインクルパーク城[1] Tuinkuru Pāku-jō?), a stone castle with red roofs. Other major attractions include the "Twinkle Coaster" (トゥインクルコースター[1] Tuinkuru Kōsutā?) and "Mirror House" (ミラーハウス[1] Mirā Hausu?). The former is said to be very popular,[1] and the latter is a series of dark, tight corridors with mirrors instead of walls; these mirrors are unique in that certain parts of the floor, which will lead to a pit when stood on, are not reflected in them. Aside from that, Twinkle Park has some occasional vegetation and a few water pools.

Due to its popularity, there were once rumors about seven glowing stones being hidden in Twinkle Park, with the couple that managed to find them being able to make their wishes come true. Due to the blazing speed of the Twinkle Coaster, finding them was a very difficult tasks, with most couples giving up even after trying countless times.[1]

Story[]

Sonic the Hedgehog[]

When Amy hurries into Twinkle Park, hoping that their free entrance fee for "cute couples" will persuade Sonic to join her, the blue hedgehog is forced to chase after her since E-100 ZERO, one of Dr. Robotnik's robots, is hot on her trail. During his trip through Twinkle Park however, Sonic loses track of his friend, and so heads out to find her after leaving it before ZERO finds her first.

Amy Rose[]

When Amy hurries into Twinkle Park, hoping that their free entrance fee for "cute couples" will persuade Sonic to follow her, the blue hedgehog is forced to chase after her since E-100 ZERO is after her. During her trip through Twinkle Park, Amy is chased by ZERO and ends up getting separated from Sonic. After she escapes, she is caught by ZERO outside and taken to the Egg Carrier.

Big the Cat[]

During his search for Froggy, Big ends up in Twinkle Park. Upon arriving inside the park, the cat finds his friend in one of the local water pools, where he manages to catch him. By the time he leaves Twinkle Park however, the frog has escaped again.

Gameplay[]

When riding in a Bumper Car, the car speeds up and accelerates faster the more Rings that are collected, eventually capping out at 99. Collecting large amounts of Rings is essential if the player wants to travel at high speeds. Regardless, the black Bumper Car is the fastest out of all the bumper Cars.

Overview[]

Sonic the Hedgehog[]

Sonic's version of the Action Stage starts out on a racetrack with enemies driving bumper cars around. Sonic must defeat an enemy and steal its bumper car, then take to the track. After this area, Sonic jumps in a roller coaster, then proceeds to run through a variety of amusement park obstacles built around a castle.

Level Mission
C MISSION S BOX E
B MISSION S RINGBOX E
A MISSION S BOX3MIN E

Amy Rose[]

Amy's version of Twinkle Park starts out by the large swimming pool where she must push three buttons in a certain amount of time to proceed. Afterwards, she heads into the castle, which turns out to be a giant house of mirrors. Afterwards, she proceeds through a short section of Sonic's level before finishing and grabbing the balloon.

Level Mission
C MISSION A BALZERO E
B MISSION A BALRING E
A MISSION A TWIN E

Big the Cat[]

Big's version of the Action Stage starts out in the giant swimming pool area, where he is tasked with catching Froggy. The area is very small, and there are not many fish here, which can make catching large fish for Big's "B" and "A" level missions somewhat difficult.

B MISSION BIG 1K E

Twinkle Park Flooded

Twinkle Park, from Sonic the Hedgehog #257.

In the Sonic the Hedgehog comic series and its spin-offs published by Archie Comics, Twinkle Park is an attraction in Station Square, its layout and past history being virtually identical to that of the games. When the Shattered World Crisis hit, Twinkle Park was severely affected, forcing the Freedom Fighters to evacuate the visitors.

Trivia[]

  • The music that plays in the first section in Sonic's version "Twinkle Cart... for Twinkle Park" is a remix of the music in Act 1 of Panic Puppet Zone from the Sega Mega Drive version of Sonic 3D Blast. The music in the the second section "Pleasure Castle... for Twinkle Park", on the other hand, is an unused piece from the same game.
  • After a certain point, on the grass triangle outside Twinkle Park, the Cart Pass becomes available for all characters. This allows characters not otherwise available to participate in the bumper car section.
  • Tails, Knuckles and Gamma are able to get into Twinkle Park through the use of glitches or the debug mode. They will start in the bumper car's section; however, the game will put them in an area below the starting point, falling into a bottomless pit forever. If Knuckles or Gamma glides/hovers long enough, they will eventually find the track and can proceed into the level (without hacks, Tails cannot do this, as his flying ability does not last long enough). If the player attempts to enter a bumper car or attempts to use the bowling launcher with any character besides Sonic, the game will crash. On the PC version however, the bumper cars can be used with other characters without issue.
  • Outside of Twinkle Park, there is an orange ball with a star in the middle which suspiciously looks like a Dragon Ball from the Dragon Ball franchise.
