SEGA Heroes: RPG Matching Game

That’s why, in spite of how well I feel they handled the fanservice and presentation, I can’t recommend this game with much vigor. If you like SEGA, you might want to rotate SEGA Heroes in as your game to play when you only have a few minutes to kill and don’t want to put in a lot of effort. In that context, it’s innocuous enough, and every so often you’ll get to add Knuckles to your party, so that’s cool. But I wish the core puzzle gameplay had had half as much thought and attention to detail put into it as the monetization systems seem to have received, because then we might have something pretty great instead of a generic game with a lovely SEGA label slapped on the tin.

Overall, Sega Heroes is a highly addictive experience for longtime Sega fans. We've yet to unlock the Jet Set Radio crew and we can't wait to unleash the beats of the legendary Professor K. The match-three mechanics work well, even if we would have loved for a sixth colour block to let us heal characters (instead of relying on the special abilities of certain characters).
