Sonic Jump does a good job in terms of gameplay and structure, with two different game modes and nice tilt / touch controls.

If you passed on Sonic Jump thinking it's a simple Doodle Jump clone, you owe it to yourself to give the game another look. Its emphasis on In-App Purchases and somewhat bland design are disappointing, but they don't detract from the pure jumping fun.

I am truly surprised, and actually really glad that Sega has made Sonic Jump a proper standalone game well worth it for both fans, and non-fans of Sonic the Hedgehog.

It's nothing like a "Sonic Game" but I had a lot of fun playing this. The level design is good, but lack story, music and some context like: why is Sonic jumping instead running? But's ok.

Sonic Jump takes a long-dormant genre and breathes new life into it. We can't recommend it enough.

I admit to being sceptical about a jumping game featuring Sonic, but aside from the odd annoying level in the story mode and a feeling that Sonic really shouldn't be travelling upwards, something I don't think I'll ever get used to, Sonic Jump is an enjoyable little gem that took me by surprise.

Old school fans of Sonic tend to want two things: speed and challenge. Sonic Jump delivers both, but just a little too late in the game.

Pretty much the only lesson that should be taken from it is that it at least has consumable powerups that are cheap enough to buy with collected rings that they actually can become an integral part of gameplay, not just a plaything for the rich. Beyond that, this is a disappointingly pedestrian game.
