Sonic the Hedgehog: Spinball

Forest creatures are enslaved in a giant pinball machine. Naturally, it's Sonic to the rescue, complete with a new Sonic Spin Attack. Definitely different. Definitely fun.

Ok, ce jeu de mot est minable, mais je n'ai rien trouvé d'autre! SpinBall est sans doute un des meilleurs Spin-Off du hérisson, si ce n'est le meilleur, un excellent jeu de flipper, il a su utiliser l'univers du hérisson afin de briser les codes de son genre en y incluant des phases de plates-formes originales et rafraichissantes, toutefois la difficulté du jeu pourra sans doute rebuter beaucoup de joueurs, tout comme ceux adeptes des classiques jeux de flippers.

If you like pinball games, and especially if you're a Sonic fan, I would recommend getting Sonic Spinball if you see the chance. It's a lot of fun and it can get very addicting. Just be ready for a good challenge.

This is a really fresh idea for Sonic. There is a lot of pinball action and great animations of Sonic rolling, spinning and teetering. Each level is huge with multiple play areas that are all interconnected. There are plenty of passageways, but it could have used a few more power-up options like extra speed ball. The game gives you plenty of chances, but it is still quite hard to compete each level.

Spinball is basically an expansion of the Casino Zone from the first Sonic game, in which Sonic becomes a pinball in a huge scrolling pinball table. The game doesn't have that polished look and feel of the other Sonic games. It's still fun though, and pinball lovers should appreciate it. There are four levels that contain all sorts of switches and gadgets. As you progress, new areas open up, and the game does a pretty good job steering you into the new areas. As with most pinball games, Spinball requires you to hit specific targets, which can be time consuming. Each level ends with a boss (no surprise there), who is actually pretty easy to defeat. Between levels there is a mini-pinball bonus stage which is arguably more fun than the main game! It features multiple balls and silky smooth animation that's missing from the main game. Spinball is a pretty easy game, and there's no save option. It isn't as good as the previous Sonic games, but it's still a nice diversion.

The first, a video pinball game in which Sonic is the ball, boasts a terrific concept but an ultimately flawed execution-Sonic often moves like a leaden marble.
