Sonic and the Secret Rings (Wii)

...named Sharah appears and asks Sonic to help her restore the world of the Arabian Nights, which is being erased by an evil Genie from Aladdin by the name of Erazor Djinn. Erazor sees Sonic and calls him a "rat" and commands him to collect the 7 World Rings…and puts a Fire like timer on his chest, and if it burns out and he doesn't have the 7 World Rings ready, he will perish along with the Arabian Nights. Sonic teams up with Shahra the Ring Genie ...
...right, pressing 2 to make Sonic jump, and using the Directional Pad later on to use two new special moves that enable Sonic to get a huge speed boost and to slow down time around him so he can dodge attacks. The game is a complete on-rails design; however you can change your path just by jumping or moving the right way around obstacles or onto other platforms. There are 7 worlds or "levels" to perform missions in. All of them have a kind of desert ...

Review of Sonic and the Secret Rings (Wii)

...massive fan of Segas previous Sonic the Hedgehog games, I purchased this with high hopes. Although very action packed, with plenty of different games, I felt very disappointed. The whole game has a Middle Eastern theme and there are two ways in which you can go about playing: Challenges: 100 high velocity missions set in stunning fantastical locations. Play with friends: 40 party games for up to 4 players The Challenge Mode is slighty disappointing ...
...mayhem to the magical storybook world of the Arabian Nights, He's hunting the all-powerful Secret Rings, and there's only one hero standing in his way. Now able to slow time and boost himself to incredible speeds, Sonic will need to be faster than ever on his most dazzling adventure yet! ...

Review of Sonic and the Secret Rings (Wii)

...was flying along. After buying Sonic on the Xbox 360 not so long before this I was a bit worried that it would be as bad but I was pleasantly surprised. It's such an addictive game and really uses the movements of the controller brilliantly. You play as Sonic working your way through 100 missions that are all set in different locations. Some missions you have to get through without being killed, others you must collect a certain amount of rings. ...
...rushing forward whilst jumping or tilting the remote towards you to walk backwards, most of these take a while to get used to but once you have it really makes for good game play. This game also involves mini games that you can play with up to 4 players that are quite fun to do. I haven't actually completed this game yet as I am stuck on one of the levels but I'm sure it won't be long before I manage to complete it. You really get addicted to this ...

Review of Sonic and the Secret Rings (Wii)

This is a great sonic game, i am not sure why i am shocked as every game that has sonic in tends to be a great game. Sonic and the Secret Rings, this is sonic's first solo adventure since the sega megadrive and we have all missed him. Sonic finds himself in the colorful and vibrant world of the Arabian Nights he goes thhrough a 3D world which is brought to life with realistic water reflections, light bloom, and lifelike physics. Sonic and the ...
...It is like most sonic games where you can only run in one direction but uses the game play well. The game takes you through a training mode which does not take long to complete and you also unlock more training levels throughout the game when you learn a new move. When you unlock a new level it can be the same as a prevous one but in a different world. This can make the game repetative. The mulitplayer part of the game is entertaining and good for ...

...£30-£40 depending how you shop. Sonic the hedgehog is trying to stop an evil genie from gathering 7 world rings and taking over the world bladeeblayakeeyak etc. Characters--------- ---------Sonic the hedgehog, very fast, enters the arabian nights storybook to explore mysteries. ----------Shahra - genie of the ring that sonic uses to enter the storybook, she grants her masters wishes like a standard genie and wants sonic to be her master. -----------Erazor ...
...Much like in the last sonic games you use homing attack to kill enemies (2). The game autosaves which is an advantage in case your power goes or something. Adventure mode is pretty good, you do a series of mini-stages all in the same world and thing's you have to do range form collecting a certain amount of rings to chasing a little blue orb called uhu. The party mode can have up to one to four players, at first the only characters you can use are ...

Review of Sonic and the Secret Rings (Wii)

...those with a thing for Sonic this is the one. Coupled with the gameplay that the Wii affords this game really does capture the 'Sonic' experience. Ok , down to the basics , the control is pretty much as you'd expect, With the controller held in both hands like a steering wheel, you move about by leaning left and right to steer the little blue hedgehog. You have all the other classic Sonic movements by pressing various buttons, eg press 2, this will ...
...usually like racing games which give a good illusion of speed , this game certainly performs well in that arena. This does take Sonic into the next decade and I feel will be the start of many more adventures. Anyway, gotta go, more sonic to play, Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii. ...

Review of Sonic and the Secret Rings (Wii)

Advantages - Great graphics, fast play action, typical sonic! Disadvantages - I got stuck on one level not being able to get Sonic to jump over a big gap. If you have no patience this game is not for you! I loved the game but got stuck on one level not being able to jump a big gap and lost my patience and gave up. Other than this I really enjoyed the game. ...

Review of Sonic and the Secret Rings (Wii)

...been a big fan of Sonic right from the Megadrive, I expected great things on the Wii, but unlike previous games, the Secret Rings is based mainly on speed and manoeuvrability. A lot of the levels simply require you to get through them as fast as you can, and it's lost a lot of the exploration and puzzle-solving element that previous Sonic games had. There is also no linear story, and once you have completed a challenge there are several different ...
...I personally like in a game. Having said that, the graphics are great, as is the music, and it certainly helps you build your abilities with the controller. The ability to equip different skills at the start of each level is also a nice feature. On the whole, though, I don't think it's a patch on some of the earlier games. ...

Review of Sonic and the Secret Rings (Wii)

Since 1991, Sonic has kept up speed and is still racing along the game systems. Now since the Wii has came out, it looks like Sonic might have joined club nintendo! In this fun-filled sonic game, he has kept up the speed to get to nintendo and publish one of the best games in hedgehog history. Its Sonic and the Secret Rings. Sonic is now racing through the Arabian Nights to save their world. He was woken up to save their world at the start of the ...
...want to add this one to your cd case. With extreame graphics it will beat most of nintendo's titles for Wii. Their are 40 yes 40 party games included. Up to 4 players can play at a time. But will Sonic reveal another secret! + keep your comments flooding in! ...

Review of Sonic and the Secret Rings (Wii)

This game is very fun to play! It is very easy to get addicted to because it is so enjoyable. It's only downfall tends to be that levels are repeated with just different goals, e.g. to survive, to collect a specific number of rings, etc. Despite this, I highly reccomend this game to anyone who is after enjoyment and fun rather than intense game action. The fact that this game is on the wii makes it much more exiting, as it provides much originality. ...

Review of Sonic and the Secret Rings (Wii)

I brought this game for christmas for the wii. I have to say I was a little bit disappointed. Once through the training levels, the game is ok, but there is not alot of control and it is fairly basic. In the party mode, my husband decided to try and have a go. He got very frustrated over it. For each mini game that we played, we were given instruction on what to do, but not what the goal was. So once you got into the game you had to figure out ...
...task. Most of the tasks had a time limit and by the time you had figured out the goal there was not much time left to complete the game. One game it told you how to put air into the balloon. This was fine, so off we went and started blowing it up as fast as we could. When the computers turn came round, they hardly put any air in and we wondered why. When my turn came round again, I carried on and the balloon popped. It was only then we figured out ...
