I love the game sega

This game is perfect and without sonic 4 i would literally cry and the super sonic ending is the best ending in the game and hyper sonic in the game would be cool. Also i did a sonic 4 trilogy from episode 1 to 2 and i have episode metal and also please one problem, fix the special stage tilt on mobile and make the bumpers harder to touch that when sonics outline touches, the bumper does not boing sonic to the ! Things and also thanks for time balls in special stage because i do not want to fail getting good ending if I accidentally delete data i hope you keep up the epic work SEGA! 😉😉😉😉😉

I want Dems to throw this game away in the trash that is made of lava do not play this game

This game is very bad I Gotta say is a very bad attempt at making a new Sonic 2 D game seriously it is not good at all the physics are very bad running animations and you’re a bowl and everything about it just feels so extremely off I hate it that’s the way to finding a chaos emerald is terrible but there is a way to fix that but I don’t have the time to tell you I am seriously with generations coming one year after still it just makes things even worse I just got to say this game literally is so bad I seriously it’s so bad I can’t express it enough episode two was there a lot better in my opinion if you saw my review of that game you don’t understand that I actually really enjoyed the game but this one is basically that except terrible I got to say I hate this game and it’s in Dems is this is like the only bad games the Dips Game that I think they have made sonic advance on word colors DS they’re all really good generations 3DS amazing lost world 3DS a lot better but dance really had a bad for this one trust me do not play this game unless you are a masochist

This game is awful.

Don’t let the name Sonic 4 fool you. This game wishes it was like the amazing Classics, but no. It’s not. Let me go over some things. WHAT ON EARTH HAPPENED TO THE PHYSICS!?!? Sonic doesn’t roll down hills, if you stop holding right you stop moving, he feels weightless, What the heck?! There’s only 4 levels! 4 FREAKING LEVELS!!! And they aren’t even brand new themes! They’re just ripped straight out of the Classic Sonic games! Out of all the special stages they could’ve chosen to copy, they pick the mediocre Sonic 1 special stages, but they’ve been made even worse by forcing us to tilt the whole screen just for the pain of only 1 EMERALD! Look at that, the bosses are also completely stolen and unoriginal. Why should I even be surprised at this point? So, heard enough? I played this so you didn’t have to. Whatever you do, do NOT waste your time and money on this rubbish.

Stunning Graphics, but...

To be frank, this game is ok. Sure it's not the same as the classics (you can't beat em'), but it has the right idea as a Sonic game for the most part. My complaint however would have to be around the update. Ever since that, my game has taken lagging to a whole new level. When jumping, it slows down causing me unfairly crash into an enemy and possibly lose all the rings I've collected. On top of that, in the special stages when I'm trying to tilt the screen to collect coins, progress, and get an emerald, the freezing makes it to where you can't make it to the end in time. I just think this update has been unfair and it's not the Sonic I entirely know and love. If you could fix the lags and crashes, much would be appreciated.

Sonic 4 is back on iOS and better than ever!

Sega finally updated this game after its last update 5 years ago, and let me just say this is a better version. Yes the gameplay is still the same, but the huge difference is the graphics are completely new, especially sonic's model, and the resolution fits the screen and the game looks beautiful. One problem I'm still having is lock-on with Sonic 4 episode 2 to get episode Metal, and that got an update too, so I don't understand what's wrong.

Cleanest update to date!

I swear SEGA is on a roll with these updates on the Sonic 4 ep games! Please SEGA, if you do just this one thing is that you give us Sonic 4 ep 3 to end off the trilogy? Like the Sonic 4 games are good and not bad as what people make it out to be. You have done well with these games and I love both of 100%. So if you can, please give us Sonic 4 ep 3? It will be so good and add Knuckles in it as well if you guys weren't going to. But back on topic, this update looks clean. Just the buttons seems a bit small. So if you fix that, that'll be great. Btw, thanks for updating the both Sonic 4 games!

Movement mechanics are off.

While I appreciate the effort of the makers of this game I think you guys need to play the original Sonic games and get more of an understanding of the movements. After playing through the first two acts of the first stage I feel a little disappointed. I like how the double tap lets you lock on to enemies and objects, but the spin dash is a huge let down! There is no reason that a spin dash shouldn’t take me through a loop and beyond. Even holding down while moving is supposed to give you speed, but I feel like I slow down drastically. Those vines in Act 2? Maybe space them further apart so when I let go it I catch on the next one. I also spent way too much time trying to build the momentum to even get up to the platforms you are expecting me to swing to. Not only are those vines a royal pain, but what is with the pit of spikes you WILL fall into when you inevitably miss the platform at least the first few times? Not fair! Also, when I am up in the air after bouncing off of a spring, or bumper I should be able to tap the control slight right and move over. Overall I like the charm of the game, but fix those vines and the speed. Sonic is supposed to be fast. This just doesn’t feel right.

The game is bad and the Speical stageS

This is just a knock off of the classics like splash hill zone it’s just a copy of green hill zone and emerald hill zone and mushroom hill zone even the bosses are just stolen form sonic 1 and sonic 2 lost larbrith is just a copy of labyrinth from sonic 1 metallic madness is just the meter zone from sonic 2 lets go see. If episode 2 is any better but it’s still a copy of sonic 2 and sonic cd but with better actions the first cutscene is just a copy of the sonic 3 cutscene and the first zone is just a copy of atuic ruins zone from sonic 2 but the bosses a different but the metal sonic boss fight is a copy of the metal sonic boss fight from sonic cd but you chase and attack metal and I think the reason why there is not a episode 3 it’s because it will be just a copy of the classics soo whatever you do DONT buy episode 1 they just want money play episode 2 instead OK DONT BUY THIS EPISODE unless they make it free and the Sonic 4 episode 1 special stage is terrible 😣 you have to rotate the screen on ipad for no reason the sonic 1 classic special stage was way better

The game’s ok but....

I know people like the game because of some “update”. First off all, I got a message for them. We didn’t get an update. We got the PROTOTYPE. The one where sonic barely ever has the “wheel legs” animation. The one with the gimmick acts. The one where sonic stands still and does the finger wag instead of coming out the ring and THEN doing it (sorry, I’m a nerd). Also, the Special Stages are the WORST. The ones in Sonic 1 are annoying, but at least those are FEASIBLE! When you get up to 4 Emeralds, they get IMPOSSIBLE here. I’ll tell you what just happened to me.I was going to collect the last Chaos Emerald. Within a few seconds, a spring sprung me into the “!” signs. All I have to say is....OH SO YOU CAN MAKE THIS, BUT NOT SONIC 3 AND KNUCKLES! You can’t, I dunno, USE THE PC SOUNDTRACK!!! That would be COPYRIGHT!

The special stages sucked and the game itself looked cheap, but other than the physics not being like the classics, it’s not that bad. Sure, it’s not perfect, it’s still banking off of nostalgia, but it’s what Sonic needed when this game came out.
