My nephew loved the game. He had no problem playing the game independently.

Pretty similar to all the other sonic games that Ive played in the past although I found it a bit more difficult. perhaps Im just out of practise. But good game and exactly what I was looking for

With Sonic Colors and Sonic Generations , it's safe to say that over the past few years the Blue Blur has been doing pretty good for himself. Now he seeks to make a new hit with his latest game, Sonic Lost World.

Fun and innovative gameplay; parkour system and run button add to the experience; beautiful graphics; smooth frame rate; great level design; orchestrated soundtrack

Sonic the Hedgehog has experienced mixed fortunes in recent years, struggling to find his feet in a brave new world of 3D platforming.

It's strange that the highest rating Sonic game in the last 10 years is one where Sonic doesn't even use his legs to go fast. What I'm trying to say is, since Sonic Adventure released onto the Dreamcast back in 1998, there really hasn't been a Sonic title that has been universally praised.

I vividly remember finally nabbing that final star in Mario Galaxy 2 . It had taken weeks of planning the perfect route, and timing each and every button press to guide Mario across that agonising collection of spinning platforms and deathly gravity traps.

2D sections are nostalgic fun

Wildly derivative of Mario Galaxy; Painfully difficult levels as part of the main story arc; Way too much "dude bro" in the cutscenes; Often inaccurate handling makes it all the more tricky

Sonic's back! But wait! Don't go yet! This might be a good game - although the odds are rather against it. It's rather tough to explain that once upon a time, Sonic The Hedgehog was an absolute gaming goliath.
