A mysterious power opens time holes that throw Sonic’s universe into chaos and scatter his friends. Classic Sonic and Modern Sonic team up, journeying through familiar places from Sonic’s past as they seek to save their friends and confront the force behind the disruption.
Play as both versions of Sonic across stages designed for their different styles. Classic Sonic tackles 2D platforming with his spin-dash, while Modern Sonic speeds through 3D routes using his Boost and homing attack.
Complete stages, take on challenges, and face rivals and bosses from Sonic’s past. Freeing captured friends unlocks further challenges, while collectibles and alternate routes give players reasons to revisit levels.
In the supplied reviews, players often praise the fast, satisfying level design and the contrast between Classic Sonic’s platforming and Modern Sonic’s high-speed routes. Many also enjoy revisiting familiar stages with remixed music, and describe the challenges and collectibles as reasons to replay levels. Some players are less enthusiastic about particular stages or the final boss.
