This is definitely one of my favorite iPhone games I have played. The animations are smooth, the pixel art is clean, and the music is nice. There are a lot of issues with this however. The levels are really difficult to get 100% on, mainly because of the complexity of some of the special stars, placement of other specific items, and the amount of hazards scattered about (Icy Wastes was super difficult to 100% because of the blue shooting plants). I appreciate the blue flowers indicating the special stars, but some of them are still really difficult to get to (I literally had to look up guides for some of them). The last thing I need to discuss is the star balloon in Sky Fortress-1. You’re required to defeat a snail on the left and kick its shell to the right to bounce to the high platform. But the balloon is always offscreen no matter how fast you attempt to do it, making this balloon literally impossible to reach. I’m not sure if this is some issue with the device I’m using or a bug with the game, but either way this needs to be changed somehow. The fact that that particular balloon is impossible has steered me away from playing this game. I’ve gotten 100% on every level so far, but now I’ve reached Sky Fortress-1, and I’ve basically just stopped there. Due to 5-1’s balloon being unreachable, I have no other choice but to stop playing the game due to it being ruined because of it.

Just sonic.

This game is one of my favorite mobile games ever. Especially when you compare it to other platformers on mobile (or as I like to call them, Mario ripoffs) This game is solid. The graphics are a thing of beauty, the controls are just as good as "Super Mario Bros. 3", and the creativity really shines, despite some enemies obviously inspired by other games. The difficulty can be a fun challenge, but sometimes, it's just tedious. The mine cart levels are an example of that. Overall, this game can easily fit in with other great Ipad games, and maybe even be a spiritual successor to the Mario series if it ever dies. But that won't happen, right? ...Right?

This is for sure the best iPhone game I have ever played. With all of these city management and infinite runners having all the attention, It's hard to find a decent, enjoyable game that's different from the others. Sure it's kind of a Mario/Sonic spin-off, but it's really well made and has beautiful old-school graphics, so I don't think it really matters, it's still lots of fun. I have enjoyed every second of this game. It's addicting and it gets really hard, which adds a good challenge. I'm looking forward for more games like this. I loved it! 5/5
