A full size version of the Sonic LCD game. The gameplay in this seems to be similar to the watch version, but with different sprites. This also has a background based on Marble Hill Zone.
In the game, you move right and jump into enemies, trying to avoid attacks. There’s not really any “platforming”, the four stages are just flat. Once you get to the end, you reach Dr. Robitnik and jump into him to defeat him and move on.
The action is very difficult to see due to the nature of the device it is on, and these devices are never fun to use for more than a couple of minutes.

Played the hell out of this as a kid, the only Tiger handheld I ever owned. It has multiple levels with shockingly impressive feeling action for a stilted LCD game. The beeping music genuinely made me emotional when I booted this up online after 25+ years since I last heard it.

I clicked the link, all I can hear is those wretched beeps now. I won't wait for the end to come. I've gotta go fast and end my life before those sounds start to come back. For God's sake, heed my warning. Don't go to this link https://archive.org/details/hh_tsonic and play it for yourself!
Oh god! The sounds, the sounds! HE'S HE-
Oh god! The sounds, the sounds! HE'S HE-
this game physically hurts to play
Greatest Sonic game ever created; I fear. They shouldn't have made more Sonic games after this one because this was TIGHT!
