I’m sure everyone can remember playing this classic! The original Sonic the Hedgehog is now available on Android & iOS.

There’s two versions: the Free (ad-supported) or the £1.99/$1.99 paid version. I give it a quick play to see how it transitions to modern Mobile devices.
Mobile gaming is really important so it’s a great move from Sega. I’m not a massive fan of on-screen controls though as they can get in the way.
The graphics look pretty much original – perhaps upscaled so that it looks a bit nicer on mobile devices. The 16:9 ratio is I’m assuming cropped out because I’ve only played this in 4:3 ratio.
It’s awesome that Sega have released this for Android & iOS and means that if you’re playing this over an emulator, you’re more likely to be supporting the developers.
