Blast your way through chambers oozing with nasty green slime. Take a ride on a geyser accelerator. Shoot through tubes to the upper tables. Smash into mechanical worm bumpers. Way cool!


— Description, Sonic Spinball (8-bit) US manual.[1]

Toxic Pools is the first level of Sonic Spinball (8-bit). It is the lowest point of the Veg-O Fortress, where the waste is thrown. Three Chaos Emeralds must be found to defeat this level's boss and advance.

Description[]

Toxic Pools is a disgusting, slimy dungeon. The level encompasses the half-submerged caves at the foot of Veg-O Fortress's mountain. In keeping with Dr. Robotnik's general ethos regarding environmentalism, the doctor is using the caves as a dumping ground for kilotons of radioactive slurry produced by the Veg-O Fortress' cruel industry. Rusted sewer pipes snake through rocks dripping with fluorescent purple pollution.

Story[]

After falling out of the sky outside the Veg-O Fortress's volcanic mountain, Sonic the Hedgehog makes his way into the Toxic Pools. There, he manages to get the area's three Chaos Emeralds, thereby destabilizing the volcanic activity in the mountain. Afterward, he defeats the Toxic Pools boss before advancing to Lava Powerhouse.
