the game itself is good (even though they only give you one life?), but let's take a moment to talk about the ads. open the game? ad. press start? ad. Game over? ad. complete a level? ad. revive? ad. honestly i spend twice as long watching ads as playing the game. also, don't try simply turning off internet, they thought of that too. so yeah, great game, but all around bad experience. might as well just find an emulator online.

Well, this game is is one of the best games in the Play Store. However, it definitely has some flaws. For example, the adds. These adds are soo frustrating, as they always pop up after literally anything I do. Such as if i lost a game, and i go back to the home section, an add pops up. whenever I start a game, an add pops up. Please Sega, all of us know that your limits aren't that low to put adds like some 3rd party Chinese app, so I'd appreciate you guys if you'd remove the adds.

Good game, but throughout the game, a duplicate of sonic with blood red eyes keeps chasing me. Once it caught me, it gave me a jumpscare and my game crashed. When I went back the ui was all dark with blood dripping off the top off screen. Can't tell if this is a prank, a feature, a bug, or a virus. The files looked fine, and after reinstall got bloody text saying "you can't redo your mistakes". Please fix
