	'''The Hidden Palace Zone''' is a zone found in the [[Sonic 2 Beta]], which is for the most part playable. However, there are several problems with the zone. Both acts are the same, there is an impassable part half-way through the act, and it cuts off without an end level signpost or boss. This renders the zone unbeatable without [[debug mode]] or [[hacking]].		'''The Hidden Palace Zone''' is a zone found in the [[Sonic 2 Beta]], which is for the most part playable.

'''The Hidden Palace Zone''' is a zone found in the [[Sonic 2 Beta]]. It is the only one of the scrapped zones that is playable AND for the most part, complete. However, the zone is not truly complete, since it lacks a boss battle at the end of Act 2. This renders the zone unbeatable with out [[debug mode]] or [[hack]]ing.

== [[BGM]] ==
Supposedly, the BGM for this stage was to be [[BGM 10]] (in the [[Sound Test]]. However, in the beta, a different BGM plays. While it could mean nothing, it could also mean the [[Mystic Cave Zone]] [[2 Player]] song could've have been the Hidden Palace song at one point. However, it could just as easily have been a place holder until BGM 10 was composed and programmed into the game.
