One hundred Rings still earns you a 1-up, but this version of the game doesn't have any Bonus rounds. Ring Around the RodentPer standard Sonic, you grab Rings and special Monitors to earn different types of power-ups and you must always have at least one Ring in your possession. Master the subtleties of his movements, or you'll roll into some serious and frustrating trouble.

While you're at it, eyeball Sonic's new rides: the Railcarts in the Under Ground Zone, the Hang Gliders in the Sky High Zone, and the Bubbles in the Aqua Lake Zone.The game play is Sonic all the way, simple to learn and easy to control for the most part. Then, check out the deadly spinning Flywheels in the Gimmick Mountain and Crystal Egg Zones. Sonic's a small sprite, but his movements are well-animated and easy to follow.What's new and different to see? Try the loop-to-loops for one. The scenery is crisp and clear, and it includes plenty of secret tunnels, loop-to-loops, and interesting underwater areas. Hedgehog HandsomeSonic 2's graphics belong in the top ranks of the Game Gear's greatest hits.

Sonic runs, rolls, and jumps through the two Acts of each Zone, and then faces off against one of Robotnik's seven deadly robots in each Zone's additional final Act. To free all the critters from Robotnik's Crystal Egg, Sonic's got to locate all six Chaos Emeralds.The scene is set for seven zones of rip-roarin', multi-scrolling action/adventure that shows off the Game Gear at its best. Robotnik's returned to the forest and kidnapped all the little forest creatures, including Sonic's two-tailed foxy buddy, Tails. If you thought that was the end of that story, though, you're way wrong. Which Way to the Emerald City?Sure, Sonic finished off the diabolical Ivo Robotnik in the first Sonic The Hedgehog for the Game Gear (See GamePro, February '92). Sonic The Hedgehog 2's back for a Game Gear sequel and has everything it takes to make you wanna hold hands with your Game Gear for a good long time. Fast-paced game play, crisp graphics that won't leave you blind, and enough challenge to ensure you won't finish the game with one set of batteries seems to be a tough combo for a mighty miniature. The recipe for a great hand-held game is pretty simple, but sometimes hard to pull off.
