When the Deadly Six turn against Dr. Eggman, Sonic teams up with his former enemy to explore the Lost Hex and stop their threat. Players guide Sonic through a series of colorful worlds and face the creatures in boss battles.
The game focuses on 3D platforming, with some 2D sections. Sonic can run, vault over obstacles, free-run along walls, and skydive between floating stages; courses also shift between different orientations and routes.
A Spin Dash helps Sonic build speed, while Color Powers add abilities such as flying and attacking enemies. Players can search levels for Red Star Rings and rescue animals, with animal rescues used to open boss stages.
Players who enjoy the game often praise its soundtrack, colorful presentation, and inventive levels, and some find its parkour and platforming satisfying once they learn the controls. Others find the movement awkward, the stages frustrating, and the story or boss fights underwhelming, so reactions to the gameplay are mixed.
