    (THIS IS NOT A HATE REVIEW)

    I didn't really enjoy this game. Its pretty hard. I've had it for almost a year and I haven't even finished it yet. I don't plan to finish it though. I still think it deserves to be the #6 Best Switch Game of 2018 I'm just not one of those people who love Sonic games.

    I honestly hate to be a contrarian (again), but beyond new characters this game does nothing I wish it would. And even then, those new characters are still way too similar to Sonic. They honestly might as well make Sonic the only playable character. Doesn't help that they won't do anything new with Classic Sonic so this thing comes off as nothing more thab another Classic Sonic game.I honestly hate to be a contrarian (again), but beyond new characters this game does nothing I wish it would.

Remember when I said they might as well make Sonic the only playable character? Well they also might as well make the same game over and over again if they're going to be so similar to the point where finding gameplay differences is near impossible. Expand

    Sonic Mania Plus builds up on Sonic Mania and tops it off. The ensemble of the two builds the best 2D Sonic game available and the Encore mode brings a new approach to the plot. While the extra characters don't bring any significant change to the way the game is played, Sonic Mania Plus is essential to any committed fans of the supersonic blue hedgehog.

    If you loved Sonic Mania, Plus is an essential purchase. It’s more Sonic Mania, but different.

    Sonic Mania Plus keeps the essence of Sonic Mania and extends the experience with interesting contents, although they may be insufficient for those who already have the digital version of the game, so this version is recommended for players who did not buy the original game and / or lovers of cartridges.
