With that in mind, does Sonic Chrono Adventure prove to be a happy and fruitful marriage for these two distinctive genres, or does it show signs of a troubled and incompatible relationship early on? STORY “After a terrible… ‘accident,’ it ended up like this, but nobody knows why. A union of Metroidvania and Sonic the Hedgehog isn’t something that hasn’t already been seen before within the series proper-see Tails Adventure for the Game Gear, or pick it up for yourselves on the Virtual Console for Nintendo 3DS-but it is a first seeing Sonic’s trademark high speed and platform-oriented gameplay within a genre that focuses on exploring an open world that reveals itself more to the player the more they advance through the game. Release Date: Decem/ v1.1 (Version Reviewed): February 23, 2014ĭaneluz returned later with Sonic After the Sequel, which improved upon every point BTS saw praise for, and the BTS trilogy was finally rounded off with a very different beast of a Sonic game through Sonic Chrono Adventure, Daneluz’s earnest attempt at a mashup of classic Sonic gameplay and the beloved Metroidvania genre after toying with the idea in Sonic Before the Sequel Aftermath.
