An empty Challenge Act Gate.
Challenge Acts are Acts that appear in the console/PC version of Sonic Generations. They are mission-based levels that the player can participate in.
Overview
Challenge Acts are accessed via Challenge Act Gates in the area above each Stage Entrance in White Space. There are ninety Challenge Acts; each stage has five for Act 1 (Classic Sonic) and Act 2 (Modern Sonic). Completing the first Challenge Act for any area unlocks a Boss Gate Key, and completing all of an area’s challenge acts with one character will restore a bit of color to the act’s Challenge Area. In addition, any Challenge Act the player completes will cause a Bonus Bell to appear above the Challenge Act Gate that, when rung, will spawn a roaming musical note that unlocks a random music track or piece of concept art.
