The Moon Zone is the secret extra zone of Sonic Advance. As per the unimaginative name's suggestion, the zone takes place on the moon. It is unlocked by finishing the X-Zone as Sonic the Hedgehog with all 7 Chaos Emeralds. Here, only Super Sonic fights yet another giant mecha-Eggman boss. The robot pretty much throws moon dust into Sonic's eyes to distract him long enough to use his laser. Beating the boss shows you the good ending, where Sonic somehow escapes the moon's gravity and falls out of the sky back to Earth only to be somehow caught by Tails in his biplane. How that collision isn't fatal, nobody knows.
The boss's background music is one of the most epic in the game. However, it still doesn't beat the Cosmic Angel boss theme or that of the next game's equivalent, True Area 53.
