If there's one entry worth checking out in Sonic's Game Gear library, it's this one. Man, I love the idea they were going for here. An action-exploration game with Sonic characters? Sounds pretty sweet.

Sadly, SEGA decided to make it a Game Gear game. This means plenty of slowdown issues, screen crunch, no map feature, and bog-like movement. It's a shame, because I can see a game like this working wonders.

Thankfully, it's not very long, so I ended up enjoying myself even with the problems I listed above. If it were any longer... Yeah.

Extra 1/2 star for Tails' walk cycle. It's slow as shit but the animation genuinely got a laugh out of me.
