(27/30) Sonic Triple Trouble

This is from the Game Gear, which was the only system that had it.

Also known as Sonic & Tails 2, this is the sequel to Sonic Chaos. As with the first game, you can choose to play as either Sonic or Tails through another 6 zones with 3 acts each. They each have their same controls this time round too apart from a useful ball curl when you bounce up from a spring.

The triple trouble comes from having to deal with Dr Robotnik, Fang in the special stages and Knuckles at the end of some zones.

At the end of a stage you get bonus points depending on rings collected and time and you earn a continue for every 50,000 points.

Both characters can now collect the 5 chaos emeralds to be found, which are earned through completing the special stages, which can be accessed by collecting 50 rings and finding a box with a picture of a chaos emerald on it.

The sound test is accessed simply by pressing UP or DOWN on the title screen. A little time attack stage is also available this way.

To access the level select, hold UP while the game is booting up and press START when Knuckles collects the third emerald. If you do it correctly you'll hear a ring collection chime.

Very pleasant to play on the small and big screen alike.
