Sonic The Hedgehog Classic App Reviews

So far this game is really fun! But, I would say that after green hill zone, everything gets way more challenging and less loop dee looping and speed running the levels. Green hill zone I think is the only easy and less frustrating zone. After green hill zones the game actually requires you to stay on your toes more than you have to do on the first zone. And more concentration is put into the game. I would say I died a lot. But Im giving this a 4/5. :D

Very nice, absolutely no slowdown in the time Ive played (which was finishing all characters 100%, all emeralds). Just as good as the original gameplay-wise, but the inclusion of Tails and Knuckles, along with time attack and other things puts it way above expectations. There is one issue during the end cutscenes as Knuckles where he gets caught in an endless death loop in Labyrinth Zone. It isnt game-breaking as it only blocks maybe the last 15 seconds, but a fix would be nice.

When they up dated the game they made the controls harder to use.

Wonderful remastering of a deserving classic. Sega, all of your classic games should be a similar loving treatment. Cant wait until Sonic 2, 3&K!

I love sonic so much and with this update it made things that much more enjoyable, but than again I always had fun playing sonic update or not. True fan here telling you good games like this dont exist any more. I cry because the joy of seeing sega bring this game to my iPhone, you need to bring back more games from the 90s sega library the original sega games. "SEGA!!!"

A classic game by Sega ported for iOS. Unfortunately it falls victim to a factor most touch ports have an issue with; control. If the control scheme was updated to a classic d-pad style It might be possible to progress through the game

The water level is frickin hard

Man. As you can see from the title, you can tell I am a BIG sonic. And I am 9 years of age. So all those years I have researched and played. And the guy below us right. So thank you for this amazing opportunity

The first game I ever played and it still a huge hit for me thank you but the only thing is that they keep putting games for sale and that loading title before getting to the game not the best thing as my opinion.

This is better than sonic the hedgehog 2!

This game is great but I wish you did not have to beat the game to unlock both Tails & Knuckles! I have not been the biggest fan of touch controls but this port NAILS it! Well worth what you pay for it! Love the save feature and the addition of Time Attack mode! Although I wish there was a difficulty selection, it does not hurt the game! Get it, and you will be glad you paid for it!

Would be better on an iPad then a iphone 5

Thank you so much for putting this game in the IOS! I dont have a Sega genesis so i FINALLY had a chance to play this game and I loved it Please put Sonic 3 & Knuckles here

Loved playing this on genesis years ago, and this is just as good. Controls are very responsive and forgiving, about as good as they can be on a touch screen device. Great experience.

I loved all sonic games and I love this one too. BUT Please Sega PLEASE get rid of the stationary analog sticks! Let people put them where they want. Like wherever you touch they appear. They are always in way and uncomfortable. Then again that is MY opinion. I doubt the devs of this app really care because theyre making a good buck off the ports. But well see if Sega can reclaim the console defeat in the form of app making.

Honestly the controllers arent good its really cuase its touch screen and you would need a controller for your phone if you have one that works with this app then maybe its not so bD but as it is I strongly recommend not buying the app as I Am no pleased and dont think most people would be with those controls

Badbadbadbadbadbadbadbad controls pleaaaaaaaaasssssssee fix this games controls badbadbadbadbadbadbadbad controls!

Ill admit, the controls took some getting used to. But now Im able to play with complete precision. For touch screen controls, they are very responsive. A fantastic port with plenty of additional perks (and the spin dash, thank god!). Any fans of the Genesis Sonic games should do themselves a favour and pic this one up, along with Sonic 2 and Sonic CD. This is porting at its best.

Why is Tails and Knuckles playable in Sonic 2 right from the start. But in this one you have to unlock them?

The game is good but some levels are so frustrating and not speedy
