GamePro - “…this looks and feels like a genuine Sonic game, deserving of the "4" attached to its title.”
IGN – “After an afternoon in its presence it's become seared in our conscience just like the classic levels of the early Sonics – and surely that's reason enough to have faith in Sonic the Hedgehog 4.”

I do not like this game, but I still think that it needs to be preserved. This version hasn't been updated since 2016, and is somewhat broken on modern Android devices. Many sound effects are low pitched, there are some graphical issues (just look at the title screen), the game is too zoomed in for modern screens (especially compared to episode 2), and the D-Pad and jump button are too small. I do not expect this game to get updated or even added to SEGA Forever, but it should at least be fixed.

It's already a mediocre game on console, but that feeling is further amplified in this mobile port. The touch controls are clunky, there's a little screen crunch, all of the sound effects are lower pitched, which sounds wrong, and you're forced to use tilt controls in the special stages, making already challenging stages almost impossible. If you're gonna play this game, stick with the console version, preferably the PS3 or Wii versions where the shading isn't overdone.

This is great! I wish it was free, but it wasn't expensive, either. I know it's just the old levels reimagined, but the 3D effect is amazing! Love the homing attack. And I love the tilt-screen play on the Special Stage. I have yet to to get an emerald in Sonic 1, but this is much easier. The music is great and most of the graphics are good (some of the badniks look cheap, tho). One glitch, not a biggie- when I hit the goals in a Special Stage, it shuts off my phone.
