Sonic CD PC Game 1993 review:
The key element of this game is the fact that the player can travel to 4 different versions of each level, in 3 different periods. This is achieved thanks to some poles that are scattered throughout the level, with signs of past and future.
Sonic CD is a side-scrolling platform game similar to the original Sonic the Hedgehog. Players control Sonic the Hedgehog as he ventures to stop his nemesis Doctor Robotnik from obtaining the magical Time Stones and conquering Little Planet. Like previous games, Sonic can destroy enemies and objects (such as certain walls and television monitors containing power-ups) by rolling into a ball and collecting rings as a form of health.
Sonic can also perform a “spin dash” and a “super peel-out”, both of which increase his speed. The game has seven levels.
Pros of Sonic CD:
- The music changes within the different time zones, as remixes of the present music. Sonic starts the first two zones in the present.
- He travels through time by hitting signs labeled “past” or “future”, maintaining his speed afterward. By default, future stages are neglected and littered with machinery after Robotnik has conquered Little Planet, appropriately named “bad futures.”
- Players are encouraged to convert each zone into a “good future”, with bright colors, a thriving nature, and no enemies. To achieve a good future in each zone, players must travel to the past and destroy a hidden transporter where enemy robots spawn.
- Achieving a good future in every zone unlocks the game’s best ending.
