Sonic Chaos' sequel feels as many steps forwards as it does back.

I'm a fan of Nack the Weasel/Fang the Sniper's design but sadly you barely see them or even, number three of the "triple"; Knuckles at all.

The graphics are a little nicer, the new gimmicks including snowboards and minecart rollers are good but sadly it has more performance issues and a little more in the way of tough bits that feel more format based difficulty than anything to do with skill.

The music is cracking and the third act of zone 2 is still fantastic, I'd almost say "cinematic" at least what a GameGear can pull off.

Overall I had a good time with it but I think a smidgen less than Chaos which is probably the best GameGear Sonic game.
