Gameplay

Play a variety of different Olympic games!

Sonic has dropped Mario with this the Olympic Games series coming to mobile. As a Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games veteran, I was extremely excited to hear about this game. There’s a vast array of sports you can play, and you can unlock characters along the way (you start with Sonic). Of course, there’s a storyline to it otherwise it just wouldn’t make sense.

The storyline is that Dr. Eggman has taken over Tokyo and wants to turn it into his own city since it’s large enough to host the Olympics. Sonic responds by challenging Dr. Eggman to various Olympic games to decide the fate of the city.

The Olympic games include:

Graphics

The graphics are great!

I found the graphics to be almost exactly like the console version of the game. Of course, some detail has been compromised otherwise this game wouldn’t be as cheap as it is. I don’t have any complaints, but I certainly didn’t expect anything less from SEGA anyway.

Music & Sounds

As I also expected, the sounds are very similar to the console game. However, the phrases Sonic says do get repetitive after a while. I think I would prefer him to have a wider range rather than having to read a lot off the screen.

Controls

The controls depend on the sport you’re doing!

The controls for Sonic at the Olympic Games differentiate between what activity you’re doing. For example, some consist of swiping, some dragging, and some tapping.

The Power of in-app Purchases

Purchase passes to unlock the rest of the game!

Sonic at the Olympic Games isn’t free to play, well, it’s free to play the first section. After that, if you want to continue, you have to purchase passes. Luckily the passes are cheap so it’s worth doing if you enjoy the game. However, I think SEGA would’ve been better off charging to download as it would leave fewer people disappointed.

The Verdict

What did you think of Sonic at the Olympic Games?!

Sonic at the Olympic Games could’ve easily got a 4/5 rating out of me, however, I wasn’t happy with the fact I could only play to a certain point before I had to pay. It’s frustrating and it would make more sense to charge at the beginning so it doesn’t waste anyone’s time who doesn’t want to pay.

If you decide to download Sonic at the Olympic Games, let us know what you think and if you agree or disagree with the things we said. Happy gaming and stay casual!

Sonic at the Olympic Games Overall Rating: 3/5
