Sonic Adventure has a lot of codes, secrets, and puzzles. You may want to pick up the official guide from Prima to get the most out of the game.

  • Aztec Forest Shortcut
    To get to the Frog and the Emerald as Tails in one step, do as follows: After riding the trolly to the Aztec Forest you should be standing up high on a platform overlooking the forest. If you stand on the edge and look down and to the left you will see two trees sticking out of the canopy that are close together. Fly toward the trees and land next to the one that is closest to the ledge you jumped from. You should be standing on top of the canopy. Walk around the first tree until you fall through the canopy and end up right by the emerald and the frog.

  • Big's Power Rod
    Take the Mine cart to the jungle. On the platform, drop down and go to the right. Follow the wall until you get to Big's house. Push his bed to the side and fall down the hole. You'll get The Power Rod.

  • Change View in Twinkle Park
    To change the view in Twinkle Park Race, press up to toggle between inside, outside, and zoomed out view. This also works in the first bumper car portion of the level.

  • Twinkle Circuit Driver Selection
    After completing the game with all six characters, you'll be able to race in Twinkle Circuit with anyone. Just select the character you want, then go to Station Square. Once you're there, go over to the little patch of grass and weeds by speed highway entrance and pick up the ticket. It will be rotating, and easy to spot. Then go into the Twinkle Park building, and instead of entering Twinkle Park, enter Twinkle Circuit. You will hear a special noise that tells you that the secret is unlocked. Now just repeat the process for all the characters. The best racers (in order) are Knuckles, Sonic, Tails, E-102, Big, and Amy.

  • Egg Trick
    When playing Amy's adventure, after E-102 has released you out of the jail cell, go out of the area and play the game outside to get the feather and to unlock the door. Then go back to the jail cell and unlock the cell in the middle, pick up the dark blue egg and go the A-Life area in the egg carrier. Then warp back to the egg carrier but before you reach back, there will be one saving done. The saving is only to save the eggs in the area. After this, press start and exit the game. Then, enter Amy's adventure again and you will be back at the beginning at the jail cell. Just keep on repeating this step and you can get as many of the eggs as you want.

  • Easy Emblems as Knuckles
    If you're having trouble getting the one minute emblems as Knuckles, find the first emerald shard, but don't touch it. Instead, pause the game and restart the level. Now run to it as fast as you can. Since the shards act as save-points, find the next one and repeat. Do this until you have all three.

  • Quick Reset
    Hold all four action buttons and press start.

  • Pause Removal
    To remove the pause menu, press X and Y together at the pause menu. This is useful if you want to take screenshots.

  • Free Rings
    As Tails, go to any place with grass and look for a dark green weed. Wack it with your tail. If you are lucky, a ring or extra life will appear. While playing as Knuckles with the silver knuckle gloves, go to a place where you can dig and in most places (especially places with plants) you can uncover up to 20 rings.

  • Golden Chao Baby
    Step 1: After you beat the game as Sonic and get the Metallic (Silver) Chao Baby, head towards where you faught Chaos 0 (At the beginning of the game.)

    Step 2: When you enter the park where you fought him, go left.

    Step 3: You will find a stone egg - it doesn't even hatch in a sanctuary.

    Step 4: Pick it up and go out of the park and onto the street.

    Step 5: Go left and forward until you find heavy metal doors.

    Step 6: Go in and put the egg down. Pick up the golden egg and put down away from the platform. The doors will lock.

    Step 7: Put the stone egg on the platform where the other egg was and the doors will unlock.

    Step 8: Bring the gold egg to the nearest sanctuary and throw it to hatch it. A Golden Chao Baby will emerge!

  • Better Chao Parenting
    Instead of throwing a Chao against a wall to hatch it, try just rubbing the egg like you were rubbing the Chao. Then set it down and back away. It will start jumping, and then it will hatch. They seem to like you better if you do this.

  • NiGHTS Chao Baby
    Give your Chao baby 20 different purple animals and it will start to look a character from the Sega Saturn game NiGHTS (also by Sonic Team).

  • Secret Chao Puzzle Game
    After you start up the Sonic Adventure game, place a controller into the D port on your Dreamcast and have a VMS in the controller. A hidden Chao Puzzle game will appear on the VMS screen. It is a tile based puzzle game where you have to use the Dreamcast's controller to move the pieces of a moving picture around to win. After every five puzzles you solve, a little animation will play on the VMS screen.

  • Metallic Chao Baby
    To get the one-of-a-kind metallic Chao baby, go to the waterfall near the subway and look to the right of it. You will see a sort of platform. Go to it and push it. A metallic egg will fall down the waterfall and into the pond. When it reaches the land pick it up and bring it to the nearest Chao sanctuary. Throw it and it will hatch.

  • Mega Team
    Win the game with all the characters. Super Sonic will then become available, win the game with him and all the crystals. Return to the character select screen and any character you pick will be Mega and go four times his/her original speed.

  • Metallic Sonic
    After highlighting Sonic on the character select screen press A+X+Y+L+R+Left. Now just press Start.

  • Control Tails
    When you're playing Sonic's action stages and Tails is on the screen, a second player can control Tails with the second controller. Any rings Tails collects will be added to Sonic's totals. Be careful to not make Tails break open any shields, invincibilities or one up item boxes as those will not be added to Sonic and will be wasted.

  • Play as Super Sonic
    Play through the game with every character and the seventh character "Super Sonic" will be opened. This is the only real way to fight Perfect Chaos, the final boss.

  • Power Ring for Sonic
    To get the Power Ring, you have to have the Special Shoes. Go into the main building of the Station Square (The one that leads to the pool and first Chao Baby Sanctuary) and go up the stairs. Charge up until Sonic says "Ready" and press the first star button until new rings appear. Then press the second star button, head over to the new rings and let go of the charge button on your controller as fast as you can. Go into the room with the doors closing in front of you before they completely close, step into the Rainbow Area and you will have are green ring on your wrist. It will allow you to charge up faster.

  • NiGHTS Level
    Go into the casino and enter the "Pinball & Cards" game. There you can play NiGHTS: Into Dreams pinball. If you get the ball to go into certain holes, you can play several actual NiGHTS levels in 3D using the NiGHTS character.

  • Sonic Tokens
    You can get 5 Sonic Tokens from Chao Race. Just raise a Chao then go to the Chao Race. Choose the first choice and then the place where your Chao is. Then chose a crystal and win each one then a 5th one will appear and chose it. If you have trouble finding levels you have beat and want the tokens, go to the main options at the chose the second option. You can go to any level you have beaten without running around for it. This is good if you need to collect more tokens and it tells you which ones you have gotten and where. There are tokens hidden around the world which shouldn't be to hard to find.

  • Sonic's Snowboard Select
    Just before entering the snowboarding part of the ice stage, press X to get Sonic's blue snowboard (previously seen in Sonic 3 and Sonic Triple Trouble). Press B to get Sonic's yellow board (only seen in Sonic Adventure.)

  • Sonic's Special Super Speed Shoes
    In Station Square, head towards where you first faught Chaos (0.) Instead of going in the park, go to the hole in the ground. Fall in, then follow the path. You will find a rainbow colored area, step in. To get out, speed until Sonic says "Ready?" and keep holding down the speed button. press the button with the star on it and let go of the speed button.

  • Super Knuckles
    Complete the game with all six characters, then complete it again as Knuckles. Then quickly hold X + B at the character selection screen. Knuckles will give a thumbs up pose to confirm correct code entry.

  • Clone of Knuckles
    Play through the game (with all the characters) until you get Super Sonic. In Super Sonic's Adventure, go to the crashed island. There you see Knuckles and Eggman (Robotnik). After the clip, press A+B+X+Y+Start. Then choose Knuckles. Go to the same place, and there are two Knuckles! This works with other characters, too.

  • Super Speed with Sonic
    If you have trouble beating time trial with Sonic, constantly click X or B and you will spin real fast.

  • Tail's Jet Anklet
    Behind the Twinkle Park entrance there is a sewer. Go in there and fly up a hole at the end of the sewer. There's a secret room up there.

  • PC Wallpaper
    If you insert your Sonic Adventure game disc into a PC CD-ROM drive, you will have access to a directory called "extras". Inside you'll find a number of Sonic Adventure desktop wallpapers you can decorate your PC's desktop with.
