Sonic Mania (Switch NSP)
Sonic Mania was a true return to form for the mascot, in his 2D ‘Classic’ guise at least, and celebrated the glory days of the original games while also enhancing their qualities and taking on new ideas. From new areas, imaginative second acts and some delightful boss encounters, the development team poured a lot of passion and talent into the project. Sonic Mania Plus takes that solid foundation and – in all honestly – doesn’t do a great deal to mess with it. The new characters and modes are welcome, and there are some neat tweaks which iron out some of the kinks present in the original release, but on the whole this is an enhanced edition of the game rather than a feature-rich update. If you’ve still not sampled the delights of Sonic Mania then this is clearly the version to get, but if you’re an existing owner then the low asking price of the DLC update make this well worth a look; we’ll take any excuse to dive back into one of the best 2D platformers of recent memory.
