Green Hill Zone Act 3

Geerot4444 on

United States

I’m trying to finish that level, but it may be hard. But whoever plays this game should be very confident about something with the game. You know how to pass this level and it may be really difficult. I just started the Green Hill Zone Act 2. Then I just try and try and try, and it wouldn’t let me pass. But it’s actually a really good game. At least I passed Green Hill Zone Act 1. Let me try this act again. Now it got WORSE, AND WORSE! I CANNOT BELIVE I HAD LOST A ROUND! I’M DELETING THIS GAME, IMMEDIATELY!

A Sonic game isn’t without its music

My grandpa owns a Gameboy but it only has super Mario world 2 so this is giving me a taste of what it would be like on a Gameboy. Same to say with Sonic 2

Happy Late 30th Anniversary Sonic!

Huge fan

One day ago I was scrolling looking for games, and suddenly…I saw something that reminded me of my childhood. This game. I have an Xbox and I had a Sonic Forces game on it. Now when I found this, I immediately downloaded it. I am a huge fan of Sonic games and you guys have been doing a great job. So happy that this game is on mobile. I don’t care if I find any problems, PERFECT GAME NO MATTER WHAT! So yeah that’s all. Edit: Can you try releasing more games for mobile? That would be great. Thank you for taking your time to read this review, I really appreciate it. Bye.

I GOT 50 RINGS AND ALL CHAOS EMERALDS AND I EVEN GOT 100 RINGS AND YOUR STILL SAYING THAT I CANT TURN INTO SUPER SONIC LIKE SERIOUSLY I HAVE TO USE THAT GLITCH TO BECOME SUPER SONIC 1 STAR REVIEW

Amazing game for real.

yeat666 on

United States

This game is the almost pinnacle perfection of a classical game, the only issue is how hate-able stages can be, of course, having difficulty and diverse gimmicks can be a breath of fresh air, it can also be very problematic. For example, Marble zone has one too many spikes, and areas that turn down your pacing, which completely throws away the fact that this game is supposed to be a speedy game. Of course there are redeeming qualities such as the Chaos emerald collection, but even that is kind of annoying. Another piece of goodness this game provides is Star light zone, it’s really good in my opinion.
