I've never really thought that platformers like this one are particularly convenient to play with touch controls - or it could just be me and my tendency to jam my thumbs onto the touchscreen too hard when I'm really into a jump. Of course, with the game now ported over to mobile, the touchscreen isn't exactly the best way to enjoy the game, in my opinion. If you've been looking for that no-nonsense nostalgic feeling on your mobile device, there's really no need to look further. Yes, even that dreaded drowning countdown is back with a vengeance - something that partly traumatised me as a kid - but this time without the horrific score that plays in the background to signal your impending doom.Įven discovering secret areas is still as exhilarating as it was all those years ago, and also as frustrating when you leave the secret zone without having completed the objectives to perfection. Animations are as retro as they can be, from pixel-art Sonic impatiently tapping his foot to him raising his hands in the air with a look of shock when he loses all his hard-earned rings. Much like the OG Sonic games, this one features the iconic levels we know and love beginning with the breezy tropical vibes of Green Hill Zone. The platformer is a fan-favourite for a reason - it brings back all the nostalgic vibes of the classic SEGA title but with stunning visuals and a modernised twist. Is there anything nobler than freeing cute critters from their robotic prisons by bopping them on the head? That heroic cause and the satisfying "pop!" that comes with it are front and centre in Sonic Mania Plus, now on soft launch in the Philippines thanks to Netflix. There's no two-player support at the moment.It's a beautiful medley of old-school vibes and modern visuals.Sonic Mania Plus is best played on a controller.
