Crazy Gadget is a stage in the Hero Story of mh:awesomegames:Sonic Adventure 2 and Sonic Adventure 2: Battle. It is Sonic's fifth level and overall the fifteenth stage in the Hero Story.

Along with Mad Space, Meteor Herd, and Eternal Engine (which are Rouge, Knuckles, and Tails' last stages respectively), Crazy Gadget is the most hated level in the game for its confusing layout near the end and frequent use of gravity mechanics.

Why It Will Drive You Crazy (No pun intended)

  1. This stage is very long, which is mainly a problem for the timed mission due to a five minute time limit.
  2. The main gimmick of this stage is flipping gravity, and while that sounds cool on paper, it can be rather unsettling. Not to mention it's kind of hard to control Sonic on walls or upside down.
  3. Parts of the stage are waiting games. For example, you have to wait for some enemies to deactivate their shield before you can make it across the green fluid pit.
  4. The enemy placement is rather unacceptable.
  5. The area with the colored blocks is really confusing, as you have to guess which gravity switches take Sonic to which block. You have to do this until you reach the purple block, where the switch to activate the rocket is.

The Only Redeeming Quality

  1. The music is phenomenal.
