Is what it says, I can put it in my pocket and it can certainly take me on an adventure

Sonic Pocket Adventure takes Sonic 2 and 3, blends their level themes together, yet creates unique 8-bit level layouts. But this game isn't perfect at all.

The screen crunch makes this title unsatisfactory in many ways, an example of this is in the aerobase zone where you can't really see where to go for most of the jumps that leads to death, nor can you figure out shortcuts without taking the risk and just diving off the stage.

Special stages are in the deep end as it only gives you one shot to beat the stage if you fail you lose the chaos emerald making you unable to get to the true final boss, so be prepared to tear your hair out.

Overall though, I think this title captures the classic titles perfectly by providing its pocket-sized adventure that takes elements of its predecessors before Sonic Mania, keeping the speed of the hedgehog but be prepared to tackle this game more than once for some of the unfair challenges ahead
