Sonic the Hedgehog
About Sonic the Hedgehog
Sonic the Hedgehog brings Genesis-era Sonic action to your browser — rings as your lifeline, loops and springs as your rhythm section, and level routes stacked vertically so the fast path is always the one you haven't found yet.
It's played with keyboard and mouse, so there's no setup beyond your hands and the screen. It works on phones and tablets too, so the couch counts as a gaming setup. One attempt is all it usually takes to understand the appeal.

- Hit Play above. No download will start — the game runs in the tab.

- Improve run by run; the first tries are for learning the rules.

Tips for Sonic the Hedgehog
- Springs and boosters chain; stop steering mid-chain and let the level fly you.
- Roll into slopes to convert downhill into serious speed.
- Keep one ring alive at all costs; in Sonic, one ring is a full health bar.
