    As a big Sonic fan from the golden age of gaming, I think Sonic Runners Adventure does a lot of things right. The visuals and music take me back to my childhood, and the controls work well for what it's worth. It's also great that you have a wide variety of characters to choose from, including older ones. However, I think the game gets a bit too difficult at times, especially the desert area. I've been stuck there for a while (I tried maybe almost 50 times) because one level was way too lengthy, the yellow of the desert made it hard to see some obstacles and enemies, and everything moving super fast doesn't help when you can't see clearly. I had to get help from my fiancé, who's much better at games in general, and even that took a few tries. The developer should do some balance tweaking, in my opinion, to make it a less frustrating experience.

    Sonic Runners Adventure shows that, in the right hands and with a solid project, this franchise still has enormous potential on mobile and can go head to head with anyone.

    It does a reasonable job of that most of the time, however. For just a few bucks, you get several hours of fun auto-running platforming that looks and feels like a Sonic game of this sort should. The difficulty curve could certainly use a little straightening out in places, but it's still quite engaging even when it's too easy, and not insurmountable when it's too hard. Overall, Sonic Runners Adventure is an easy game to recommend to Sonic fans and those who enjoy auto-runners. Past that, it's going to depend on how much you appreciate a slick presentation over tight level designs. If nothing else, it's the best original Sonic game on mobile. That's got to be worth a golden onion ring or two.

    Sonic Runners Adventure drag the players into the colored world of Sonic with a satisfying side-scroller platform. The lack of microtransactions is the added value of the game.

    It's not classic Sonic, but it's a lot more fun than you might be expecting.

The graphics look like something out of old Windows Movie Maker videos and there are no Shadows what so ever, even after release there have been no updates. A game such as this does not deserve your money at all so don't even bother paying for this.… Expand
