How to unlock the Complete the Game achievement in Sonic The Hedgehog 3 - Definitive Guide

If you're having trouble figuring out the shiny barrel trick in 'CARNIVAL NIGHT - ACT 2' you're not alone.

You do not have to jump and you do not have to be Super Sonic. The trick is to jump onto the barrel and then use the left thumbstick to control the up cn_LSu and down cn_LSd movement of the barrel in sync.

Once you know how to move the barrel you can reach the high ledge to the right and continue on.

I hope this helps and was surprised that it's not mentioned anywhere in the other guides, thumbs up please.

There are 6 levels in total each with 2 Acts (Angel Island, Hydrocity, Marble Garden, Carnival Night, Ice Cap and Launch Base).

You need to complete the last stage of the Launch Base and defeat Dr Robotnik in his machine with the giant hand.

You have the advantage of a save feature that you can use to save your progress at any point in the game so if there's a section that you think you're going to die, save it and then attempt and if you fail, re-load the game save.

I'd like to note that there are a few sections in Carnival Nights where you are trapped by a rotating barrel, and it seems like you cannot get out cause you can't time the jumps right. If you are stuck here, simply land on the barrel and push the joystick up and down and the barrel will move down so you can jump off.

That section of this game was really easy, because I don't need help from someone and it doesn't make me really rage of it. But I learn how to move barrels, I just have move up and down and then jump off.

Complete the Game - 25G (Original Achievement)

Difficulty: 4/10

This achievement is basically Story Related and is unmissable as long as you play through and finish the game.

There are 6 zones in the game and this achievement will unlock after clearing the last zone, Launch Base, and taking down the final boss.

Below are a video of Launch Base Zone and the final boss made by me, and a link to my playlist if you want to see the whole game, a.k.a. the rest of the zones. Good Luck!

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is divided up into 6 different Zones with 2 Acts apiece. The game is considered to be the shortest out of all the Sonic games on Genesis. If you get stuck, ask for help on the forums or look up a FAQ. One particular point in the game you may get stuck is in Carnival Night Zone, Act 2. You will end up on a red and white spinning cylinder. Press Up and Down on the control pad until you are able to jump into the next location. Other than that, you should have no problem at all! Remember, SAVE OFTEN!
