Amazing, but…

This is an incredible game! I love to play it! However, i get easily frustrated when an ad pops up whenever i press a button, whether its the ‘continue’ button when paused or the ‘play’ button when you load up the game. This is a fantastic game, like i said, the only thing keeping it from being a 5 star is the amount of ads, i get one nearly every time i start a level, pause or resume a level, or when i press the start button when i load it up. Not everyone can afford to pay to remove the ads, and sega do deserve to make money from this game, so i would say cut down on the amount of ads, and still have the option to pay to remove them. It is infuriating whenever i die and i have to watch an ad before i can continue.

Long story short, cut down on the ads, they are the only thing preventing a 5 star.

Other that that, its an overall great game!

Amazing game

I love playing this game. I have already completed all the game slots with all the chaos emeralds, using all 3/4 characters. I wish that when you have all the chaos emeralds you can become Super Sonic when playing as Sonic. This game could also use a lot more than just 3/4 character. For example Shadow as he is a big character in sonic or Blaze and Silver because you barely see them in games anymore. I also played this Sonic game on computer where you could play as Cream and Cheese so maybe she could be added to along with people like Rouge, Omega and Amy.

All of the characters I have just mentioned should all have abilities like Tails and Knuckles. For example Shadow should be able to use abilities like his chaos power and teleportation(mid-air dash).He should also be able to become Super Shadow with all the chaos emeralds in hand. Blaze should be able to shoot fire at enemies, Silver should be able to magnetically picked up enemies and throw them at other enemies, also being able to turn to Super Silver with all the chaos emeralds being collected, Cream should be able to fly with her ears or Cheese, Rouge should be able to fly with her bat wings, Omega should be able to attack enemies with his claws at long range and Amy should have a separate button to smash enemies with her hammer. There could also be a lot more characters too.

F.Y.I. I will probably play as Shadow the most because he is my favourite character in Sonic.

A Great Port, However….

I can’t remember when I exactly got this app but it’s really good, although I have a lot of trouble with the special stages but I’m probably just trash at the game. Many people say that they don’t like the touch controls and I guess I understand but in my playthroughs, I don’t mind, I mean, it’s not something you can get used to but it’s either that or Sonic O6 controls - your choice people. Also, I don’t get how Scrap Brain Zone Act 3 is Labriynth Zone Act 4. I guess i’ts trying to tell you that Scrap Brain was built on top of Labriynth but nobody likes that zone so it feels lazy and unnecessary. Now the bosses in this game are really easy, hit, dodge, hit, win, there, very simple. The Labriynth chase boss is not even a real boss, all you do is chase Eggman whilst avoiding the water and very cheap moving spike placements. There are speed-paced levels like Green Hill, Spring Yard and Star Light, but then slower-paced levels like Marble Zone make Sonic 1 feel like your typical, basic platforming game Also, I keep getting hit by the spikes in Marble Zone Act 3 to where it become cruel and unfair to a new player. But that’s it for this review and even though Sonic 2 heavily based it’s level design on speed and is better than Sonic 1, it’s still a classic and highly enjoyable for fans of the series. SEGA, please respond to me please, thank you.
