Play Sonic Games Online For Free

Sonic the Hedgehog is a video game character who was made especially for the game console called SEGA. Sonic is 15 years old and looks like any other hedgehog in the world, only Sonic is blue, the reason for this colour was to match SEGA’s logo that has the same blue tone as Sonic. Another thing that differentiates Sonic from other hedgehogs is his amazing super powers. These include the ability to run faster than the speed of sound and curling up into a ball to allow him to roll. But as we all know every super creature has their weaknesses and the chink in Sonic’s armour is that he can’t swim, in fact he hates water, so when you play Sonic games you have to be careful not to enter any lakes or waterholes.

Sonic has got many friends including his best friend Tails. Tails is a humble yellow fox with a twin tail who is viewed as Sonic’s sidekick. Another friend is Amy Rose who is Sonic’s self- appointed girlfriend, Amy is an adorable pink hedgehog with a good heart. Perhaps the next most well known companion is Knuckles. Knuckles is the last echidna left living on Angel Island and his mission is to protect the Master Emerald there. When you play Sonic Games yourself you’ll get to know more about Sonic and these friends in more detail.

An individual with that many friends ought to have some enemies as well right? Sonic’s eternal enemy is Dr Robotnik also known as Dr Eggman. Dr Robotnik is a fat scientist with an IQ of 300. He has a nasty habit of locking cute animals into the bodies of robots but do not worry Sonic is able to release them when he completes the end of a level.

The most important element and one that characterises Sonic Games is the collection of gold rings. The rings have the ability to save him when he runs into enemies, sharp objects or other unpleasant obstacles. A certain amount of rings that Sonic has collected throughout the game are going to be lost when contact with the bad guys occur. If Sonic doesn’t carry any rings at all, and he bumps into enemies, he will injure himself, and you have to follow him back to the beginning of the level or to previous checkpoint.

Sonic The Hedgehog was introduced to the public on the 23rd of June 1991 by the SEGA team, Artist Naoto Õshima, designer Hirokazu Yasuhara and programmer Yuji Naka.The reason for the development of Sonic the Hedgehog was that SEGA needed to have a new mascot, to answer the well known rival of the time, namely, Nintendo’s Super Mario.

Looking back at Sega’s plan it would be fair to say that the mission was a great success. After that day in June 1991, SEGA has been able to sell millions of Sonic Games around the world. Every day thousands of people search and play sonic games online. There are many websites on the net that are concentrated in free online Sonic games with a large collection of different styles of games including puzzles, dress up, super hero fights and the original 2D platform game.
