But now, after I've played it a few hours, I have to say that it is very well done and the positive criticism is justified. The beautiful variegated world in which the background has been made very detailed, the varied and easy-to-follow story and the near-perfect gameplay, which consists of a mixture of a little 3D gaming and rich and long over desired 2D Gaming (Game is still been designed almost entirely in 3D) make a just completely forget the stress of everyday life.
I can only recommend the game. For me it is a contemporary Sonic The Hedgehog with new Elemten. So must be and not as it was the case several times, that SEGA is trying to give Sonic a new role and thereby fails repeatedly a Sonic game.
