Hello sega team, Im a huge sonic fan and love everything sonic. In this game (in which I love the most of) there are some weird bugs that I have introduced. These bugs and glitches consist of, random end of runs without me ending or crashing, running in the air after using the jump pad at the and of the run, going through obstacles (phasing), dash and shield sometimes don’t work for protecting, and more. I’d love to get with you guys and give you every single issue. Anyways love the games

So nostalgic I really love this game. I haven’t played in a while and it’s still super fun. I just wish they kept releasing stuff. This game reminds me of the greater times I’ve had with my brother and I really appreciate all the work put into it.

The guts of the gameplay are fairly solid, but the extrinsic motivations that are on top of them (I.e. everything with the currencies) is totally broken and are clearly a port from the payed version without a clear understanding of what the + version would be. Many of the reviews complain about using red coins for extra lives on a run. That actually seems fine to me, as the cost of continuing a run and going for a high score should be large and increasing to make high scores meaningful. The piece that feels broken to be is the trials system. This is an Apple Arcade game. There is no reason that you would want to introduce friction into playing the game longer without paying, so why do you only get two tasks every hour if tasks are one of the main ways to get gems and experience? You open by getting 10 or so, but then after you complete a task it takes an hour for that slot refresh, or you can pay the primary currency (also used for buying new characters or revives). They don’t store up when not playing, but you get a small stockpile of 6 at midnight. Why is there any friction on this part of the game in the + version? Clearly this was a thoughtless carryover from the F2P version where there is value is adding friction users can pay their way around, but it totally breaks the point of this being in Apple Arcade.

Honestly I feel like they abandoned this version of Dash, other than a FEW new events like the Knuckles series event, the game seems frozen in time just going through the same old characters, literally boot this version up next to the normal non apple arcade dash, everything is different, the UI is different too, frankly it doesn't bother me much as the ui in dash + seems less confusing but it still shows how these aren't updated together, my main issue is the lack of event areas and the lack of new characters, sonic dash gets all these cool new characters and dash + just gets them dripped to it, at least character wise i have not seen ONE special area.I also don't really like how you have to wait a whole week to get a new character, i'd like there to be more interesting ways to unlock more characters like in sonic dash regular or even mario kart tour.I really dont understand why they can't just have these two be updated together, if this was up to date then yes, it would be perfect. Honestly i could recommend this if you really don't care much about the characters and areas and just want a quick time killer, or if you want to play the old sonic dash, but if you actually like sonic and wanna try out different areas and new characters, be warned this game seems to be frozen in time.

1) After max upgrading a character you shouldn’t be able to get character coins for that character from the prize wheel, style bonus, or event(s). Nor should you be able to go past the absolute max amount of coins needed in general (which is about 175 (at least for Sonic)). 2) I’ve noticed that after you get Silver either from the prize wheel or by stacks of 10 character coins that his specific coin still remains in the prize pool for the wheel when Blaze is still available for grabs. Getting Silver character coins should be resigned to only to Style Bonus or from events to make room in the prize wheel pool to unlock other characters. 2a) Add more characters to the spin wheel prize pool. 3) I know the game is procedurally generated but some combinations of obstacles shouldn’t happen such as a duck/roll (which drastically reduces visibility) followed by a (low visibility) jump into another roll with the spiked crab guys. Since they’re spiked when you roll on to them from the top you take damage and in the event you get this obstacle combo with no coins the run is over by an inherently unfair situation.

The game plays just like the regular version except certain changes were made because of the no IAP model. While some of these changes are good like the regular leaderboards with prizes, a daily login bonus, permanent upgrade that cost Red Rings instead of real money, and the ability to get construction Gems and character tokens (including non current event characters) from the bonus sections between Zones. Bad changes include every token unlock character requires 500 tokens instead of 250 tokens and every character needs an additional 175 tokens to fully upgrade. While this is no problem for Blaze, Silver, and Cream every other character requires a specific lucky roll of the between Zone bonus 18 times in order to be fully upgraded. As for character unlocks Tangle and Whisper still haven’t gotten any events (at least since someone asked about them in May 2022) so they have the 50 lucky rolls path to unlocking. Also is Baby Sonic in the game? I know that the other Movie characters that have been in the regular version are here.

So I got this game for free, and it was so fun, but… There are a few problems I would like to talk to you about. First of all, whenever you get knocked-out, you have to spend red star rings to revive. It starts off with paying 2 red rings, then 4, then 8, then….16… then more! Which that really makes me upset, so please fix that. Also, I do not like how you have raised the prices on the characters you have to buy with red star rings. In Sonic Dash they were each like 60 Red Star Rings, and in Sonic Dash+, you raised them to a price of 100 Red Star Rings, like, what the heck. Also, I don’t think that it was a good idea to just change Sonic Dash to be exactly like Sonic Dash+ So I’m not saying to get rid of Sonic Dash+, but if the games are the same, then what is the point of having Sonic Dash+ if the original and the + version are the exact same! You should download this game, but be weary to save up your Red Star Rings for what you want. I’m just saying.

Edited: the new update is ridiculous. Every time you open it you have to use up tokens, coins or upgrades to play? Absolutely not. I enjoyed it even though I had maxed out a lot of things because I enjoyed the challenge. But I’m not about to grind for resources just to open the game. What a joke. This game is a lot of fun, but once you build all the animal places there’s really no point. There are no new levels and you play the same two bosses the entire game(which I avoid because it’s boring and a waste of time.). This is essentially a grinding game to get character tokens and coins to level them up, but the problem is you keep getting tokens for characters you’ve maxed out and jewels I no longer need because there’s nothing left to build. The game is fun at first but there’s not a point to keep playing for the new characters. It’s too hard to get the new characters (it take’s absolutely forever) because I keep getting tokens for characters that are already maxed out. I wish they put more into it.

My issues is the gem system. When you finish all the areas gems do nothing. My idea is that you can buy rings, spin the wheel (over course a bit more expensive then normal) or better yet power ups/boosters. Because everyone who finished are just sitting on thousands of them. But besides that the game is still the same one I played years ago. The grind is tough but I personally don’t mean mind because it’s a game you play while on bus or car trip and it builds up over time. I know some characters won’t return but I won’t have to buy most of them. But overall is you enjoy the game back then you’ll most likely like this game. The problem is the gems but that won’t change my rating because it’s the same game. Also I wish there was more voice acting but that would be difficult in all seriousness.

So when I completed green hill zone and got Tails and I was so happy because Tails is my favorite character until I saw him having the same little motion things when you swipe your finger across the screen and when you land on the ground from the spring I saw Tails running like sonic a bit until the game realizes that your playing as Tails so it starts flying again like Tails so I was hoping that y’all the developers of the game if y’all see this response that y’all could fix Tails and make him well an actual character so yeah that’s why I gave it a four star like I’m not mad at y’all I just want Tails to be like an actual character not a re-colored sonic so please if y’all have any time or anything please make Tails his own character anyways have a great day BYE!❤️
