Sonic Mania doesn’t necessarily mark Sonic’s return to his glory days, but there is still much to love about this game and it can easily serve as a foundation for the future of the series if the Sonic Team chooses to continue in this direction.
With 12 massive zones to explore, three characters to play as, and tons of hidden content and Easter eggs to experience, there’s a whole lot of bang for your buck crammed into Sonic Mania. And with how much fun it is, you’ll be hard-pressed not to try to squeeze every bit of content out of it that you can. What else can I say? If you’ve been waiting for Sonic’s grand return to the spotlight, your wish has finally been granted. Sonic Mania is as good as it gets, proving that sometimes a franchise needs to rediscover its roots to move forward.
Sonic Mania is a game for people who grew up with Sonic the Hedgehog and have been waiting for a return to those 2D roots. This is one for those who have always wanted a retro-fabulous entry after enjoying or weathering 3D outings. It is for people who have heard good things about the series over the years, but never played. Everyone will find something to love about the hedgehog’s latest outing.
