- 10But even for newbies of the series this is a must-play. The original Sonic the Hedgehog‘s port was great, and that is still a solid game, but Sonic 2 is when the series became a classic. And while the core game holds up incredibly well no matter what, this remastering job makes it the perfect version of the game. For Sonic fans, this is a must-have. For newbies, it’s time to discover a classic in a perfect form.
- Sonic the Hedgehog 2 on Android is a great affordable nod to the past which also gives players a little added bonus. Adopting new ideas, such as achievements and multiplayer with a classic games that’s still great to this day, is absolutely amazing. Players young and old can sink their teeth into this entertaining title, just so long as they can deal with the controls. Modern Sonic games might not be the best, but as this port proves, old school Sonic games are even better than a platter of Chili Dogs.
- This one is really tough to nail down in the end. Sonic The Hedgehog 2 is a great game, but this version is lacking. What’s more, some of the areas in which it’s lacking are wildly inconsistent; you may not experience some of the glitches mentioned above, all while experiencing some on your own. Or none at all. The game is playable and good when it is, but there’s an element of chance with it.
- This is as of now the definitive version of this game available on any platform, and it's easily one of the best platform games available on iOS. The only real knocks I've got on it are the issues with the two-player mode and the minor issues that occur from using virtual controls. Whether you're here for the nostalgia or simply to experience one of the better games of the genre, you'll be well taken care of by Sonic the Hedgehog 2 Remastered.
- 8.0While not as seamless as Sonic CD due to a few slight technical mishaps, Sonic the Hedgehog 2 is the best it could be on mobile, and the extra content really goes a long way. This is one retro favorite we don't mind running around with.
