STORY

Dr. Ivo Robotnik has stolen the 6 Chaos Emeralds and has turned all animals into robots. Sonic, being the hero, goes and tries to save the day.

GAMEPLAY

The gameplay for Sonic 1 is very simple. While running, you can press down on the D-pad to make Sonic roll. You can also jump, which is another way to defeat Robotnik's robots. Sonic 1 is a platformer, with crazy loops and springs.

OVERALL

8/10- GREAT!
