Gameplay Overview:

Sonic the Hedgehog on the Sega Genesis is a fast-paced side-scrolling platformer that introduced players to Sega’s iconic blue mascot, Sonic. The gameplay focuses on high-speed platforming, where players race through levels filled with loops, ramps, and enemies, using Sonic’s signature spin attack to defeat foes. Collecting rings serves as both a score mechanic and protection—losing them upon damage but staying alive as long as at least one remains. Players navigate through six vibrant zones, each with unique challenges and bosses, leading up to a final showdown with Dr. Robotnik. This version, often bundled with the Genesis, played a key role in establishing Sonic as Sega’s flagship character.
