Sonic Jam for the Game.com is so comically bad that it would seem silly to actually give it anything resembling a "real" review.
The physics barely work, the framerate fluctuates between a sluggish 5 FPS and a "smooth" 10 or so FPS, the level design is a disaster with checkpoints floating in the sky and soft-locks abound, there is only one zone per game with four "acts" each, the music is just a cacophony of beeps and boops that just barely resemble actual Sonic songs (usually the wrong one for the zone), and a glitchy bridge means that "Sonic the Hedgehog 3" is almost unbeatable as anyone other than Tails without a very precise jump over the glitched bridge.
It's not good. The only reason it doesn't immediately take the crown for "worst Sonic game" any time the discussion comes up is because even including it in the running feels disingenuous.
Just don't play Sonic Jam for the Game.com.
