User Reviews for Sonic The Hedgehog 4™ Ep. II

Good but could be better

This is a cool game, especially for people like me who don’t have many ways to play the original sonic games, but there are a few things that could be fixed… First, the controls: the controls are not very responsive and when they do respond they do what you tell them about 1-2 seconds after you have tried to move sonic. They are also rather small, not SUPER small, but a lot smaller than the first sonic game for mobile. Second, the ads: this game is loaded with ads. Ad almost every time you die, ad almost every time you pause the game, ad almost every time you unpause the game. Now granted you can pay for and ad free version, but for people who don’t want to spend money on games, then the ads are a pain. In conclusion: the game is fun, but the controls are bad. And the game is so full of ads, it can be hard to play and enjoy yourself completely. (If you’re not screaming at the game because of how aggravating it can be. I mean, come on, it’s a sonic game! All those games are hard!) Final words: if you want my advise, go find some good emulator and play the original sonic games on those. (Raspberry Pi is good for emulating games)

This is not as bad as people say it is

OK episode one was pretty trash I got to say it had bad controls it just felt so off modern sonic instead of classic seriously is not very fun it’s just rip offs of all levels making them even worse but episode two is much better I really like the level design the concepts tails in the game just looks so much better than episode one with generations coming in between because for Christmas in 2020 in a couple days I will get an Xbox one X with sonic generations and Sonic unleashed those games look pretty amazing to me as well as this one I got to say I like the level design characters tails it’s just I got to say it’s insanely better than everything from episode one is an insane improvement in the final boss I can just make it look so deep and I seriously I am very happy to say I think this is a very nice 2d sonic game

Horrible

There is a lot of bad things about this game so I will just list it all. First why is there a homing attack in a 2D sonic game? Why is tails only in ep 2 if this is supposed to be a sequel to the original trilogy? Heck, why is this even separated into episodes? The touchscreen controls are AWFUL, half of the time when I want to press the jump button, I press the tails button or whatever it’s called, and vice versa. Why are there 4 zones now, in sonic 2 and 3 and knuckles, each act had 2 zones instead of sonic 1’s 3 acts to keep the zones from getting stale. Also why is there an act specifically for a zone’s boss, why not just put the boss in act 3? White Castle zone(or something like that) act 3 lasts for WAY to long, it feels like it never ends. Why does a SONIC game start with a WATER LEVEL? Why is the game not in a 16 bit style if it’s supposed to be a sequel to the original trilogy? And finally, why do you play as modern sonic and tails instead of the classic ones. So yeah, that’s all the problems I had with sonic 4 episode 2.

Update was a downgrade

I am giving this game 5 stars because of so much reminiscing from the classic Sonic the Hedgehog games. I was 8 years old when Sonic came out in 1991; if it weren’t for Sonic, I wouldn’t have developed an interest in video games, and have loved his games since then...not including a few past and present flops (Sonic Boom the worst of it all). I’ve even done much fan art and my own story writing/graphic novel work, as many fans of pretty much *anything* will do. However...I am removing a star because of the “update”. When I first got this game I had to buy it...but it was ad free and wonderfully enjoyable. Now with the downgrading “update”, I have to, in a sense, buy it a SECOND TIME just to remove the ads! I tried to restore the purchase of the game, but I only got an error, telling me that there were no purchases to restore. That takes the enjoyment of the game and tosses it in a pit of fire. This issue is apparently a very large problem for all players who have already paid for the game. And if this “update” moves to episode I, which I have as well, there’s going to be a lot more upset players who have already paid for the game(s). Please, Sega, either refund all purchases that were done to originally buy this game, or automatically upgrade the game to premium for those players who have already paid for the game. It would make a whole lot of rather unhappy players feel better.

Love the game from start to finish/Great transfer

This game is really addictive to play until I beat just recently, all in a couple days. The game is a great part of my past, as it was my first look into sonic the hedgehog, back in 2013. My only problem is sometimes the game can have some internet connection problems and be a little slow at times, but nothing really to complain about. Really good transfer in my part, from the gameplay to music, it’s not too bad. The only thing I have to confess about is, why is episode 2 free on the App Store and episode 1 is 2.99? Like it make no sense to give the second game free, but the first not. Because if people play this first and play the original second, it can mess up the entire experience and vibe, so at least make the first free, to be just as popular as the second, if you can. Overall, great game, just one marketing flaw and it’s perfect. So thanks sega!!!Ps: Still waiting for Sonic 3 and Knuckles and Sonic Spinball Remastered for the complete sonic experience!!!

Decent game ruined by controls

This is actually a fun game. After hearing so many bad things of 4, I got a little worry-some, although it's actually pretty good. The homing attack makes things a little too easy; but it's fine. The problem is, though, the controls. The control stick which you use to control Sonic and Tails is pretty bad, and, despite looking the same, is nothing like the ones used in the Christian Whitehead remakes of the originals. First off, it's too small. Not only is it hard to move it around because of this; but your hand is always falling off the stick. My suggestion is to add a ability where you can make the stick larger, or smaller, like in the remakes. Something else, is performance. There is something wrong with the performance; I don't know if it's frame rate or something else. When standing still, everything likes decently fine. Also, I'm on an Ipad Mini 4, one of the newer devices, so I'm pretty sure it's not on my end.In the end, a decent game almost completely ruined by controls.

Return of hyper sonic

I know hyper sonic was bad for the eyes because flashing lights and rainbow color but you can make the color silver instead like the fan-art and add the stars behind him just like sonic 2 and remove the flashing attack that make a white screen for 1 second and add the super emeralds and add the palace and add the master emerald for after all super emeralds are collected jump on it and then you unlock hyper sonic and to get in a special stage you need 60 ring and jump in the big rainbow ring and after you get all super emeralds you unlock the palace and jump on the master emerald then go in a act or boss collect 60 rings and press a new button and please don’t make super sonic and hyper sonic the same button make it different so if sega is reading this then please make my suggestion come true.

Game is kinda not playable

So I first got this hame when I was around 7 or 8. I enjoyed it a lot especially with there being no ads. Eventually I finished the game, stopped playing it as I started losing interest in sonic and eventually deleted it. I then went on to switching devices when I got my first phone and I decided to download Sonic 4 again to play it after a long time. When I get into the app, it gets infested with ads everywhere. When I open the game, there’s an ad, when I unpause the game there’s an ad. And I know what you’re thinking, why don’t you just click out of the ads? I would, if the exit button actually worked. Every time an ad pops up, I simply wait the amount of seconds there are before I can click out of the ad. But when I do, it acts as if I’m not pressing exit (not on the video ads but on the picture ads). So in order for me to get out of the ad, I always have to press get and then exit out of the App Store in order to keep playing, but when I do all the sound goes away and the only way to fix it is if you press pause and go through all that stuff again. I couldn’t even get passed the first level because of this. To make this long review short, please fix this and don’t update it to have more ads cause no one wanted that.

What a mess

I’m here to write an actual review because all the other reviews are fake so here we go. The unresponsive controls: this game has very unresponsive controls when trying to use Tails, jumping in anyway you want to go, and using your abilities, Sonic is very unresponsive in the game when moving and it shows in Special Stages he turns very slow and the game feels so awful on the Phone. Awful Mechanics: this game has AWFUL MECHANICS, very awful one of the worst out of any Sonic game. The ads: the ads are very consistently annoying when playing, when I pause the game I get an ad when I want to play another level I get an ad, when I retry a level guess what? I GET A AD. I’m not paying for free mode basically it’s not worth my money. Awful stages and enemies: the enemies in world two are annoying and a very huge difficultly when playing only world 2????? Slylania Castle and Oil Desert aren’t that bad but and other levels after it get way too hard. This game is just awful and I played it so you don’t have to I feel robbed playing a free Sonic game this maybe better then episode 1 but not by much.

SEGA You are on a roll!💨

You are on a roll SEGA. i’m really impressed with the games you have made especially this one, I wasn’t able to get my hands on episode 1. but it is OK at least this one is for free! Ann a lot of people don’t pay attention to these type of games but HEY it’s a sonic game for crying out loud am I right, anyways back with the game I really like how you added the chaos emeralds so that you can turn into supersonic but the last two emeralds are very hard maybe try making them a little more easier I know they are supposed to get harder and harder each emerald it takes but how about you try making them is just to give people a chance to get super more easily, also will you bring hypersonic back I know the super emeralds are in another dimension (I read a article about the super emeralds) but can you just involve hyper because hyper is the most powerful even as dark sonic he is the most powerful but I bet dark sonic over come hyper so despite that matter but honestly I really want hyper back because he is the STRONGEST form out of super sonic I know the game is already out but could you try making another version please and thanks, I hope you enjoyed this rate review and I will hopefully see you in another game😉
