'''Dust Hill Zone''' was the name given to a [[Desert theme|desert level]] intended to be featured in ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog 2]]'' for the [[Sega Mega Drive]].
 
   
==Description==
 
Dust Hill Zone begins as a [[Desert theme|desert]], decorated with cacti and assorted plants. The color palette was designed to at some point change into that of a [[Winter theme|winter-themed]] stage, transforming the sand into snow and the cacti into Christmas trees. The player would navigate terrain both aboveground and belowground, where there were snow/sand tunnels.<ref name="BR Interview">{{Cite web|url= http://www.randomsonicnet.org/srz/index.php?page=interviews/br.htm |title= Brenda Ross Interview |publisher= Sonic Research Zone |date= February 2001 |accessdate= 25 February 2015}}</ref>
 
 
==Development history==
 
Dust Hill Zone was created by Brenda Ross,<ref name="BR Interview"/> one of the final level artists added to the ''Sonic 2'' development team. It was referred to in an early concept sketch as '''Sabaku Zone''' (literally "'''Desert Zone'''"). Time constraints kept the zone from being added to the final product.
 
 
==Trivia==
 
*Dust Hill Zone is listed in the [[Level Select]] of the [[Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (Simon Wai prototype)|Simon Wai]] prototype of ''Sonic the Hedgehog 2'', but selecting it sends the player to [[Mystic Cave Zone]].
 
*Brenda Ross called this level's palette swap "Winter Zone".<ref name="BR Interview"/>
