Customer Reviews
Sonic and Knuckles is great
This game has tons of neat things. Hook on most games, and get a special stage. Hooking on Sonic one lets you play a whole bunch. Hook on sonic 2 and play as knuckles in sonic 2. Sonic 3 is neat too. Find out about the super emeralds. Or play regularly with lots of levels. The Game Genie is good on this game. (Very rare but fun. I have one)
Sonic 3 & Knuckles is joint 2nd in the best Sonic games
This is a review for Sonic 3 & Knuckles, not Sonic & Knuckles single. Well this is a great game. My Sonic charts are-
5. Sonic 1: Master system.
4. Sonic adventure: Dreamcast.
3. Sonic advance: Game boy advance.
Joint 2. S3&k and Sonic 1: Mega-Drive or Genesis in the states.
1. Sonic adventure 2: Dreamcast, Gamecube and PS2.
This game carries on straight from Sonic 2. The Death egg crash lands on Angel island, and Eggman meats the owner; Knuckles. Knuckles makes friends with Eggman, and gets convinced that Sonic & Tails are bad guys! So when Eggman hears that there is a master emerald on the island making it float, Eggman tells Knuckles that Sonic is after it. Sonic is having a break, flying in the Tornado Bi-plane with Tails, when he notices the island. Sonic is keen to explore, but Knuckles steals all of south islands chaos emeralds from Sonic! Plus he sees badniks roaming the place. So Sonic sets off to stop Robotnik and get the emeralds back. The plot twists and turns, and in the end it turns into Sonic, Tails and Knuckles fighting Eggman in space. Here's a list of the awsome levels!
1-Angel Island 80%
2-Hidrocity 86%
3-Marble Gardens 75%
4-Carnival Nights 82%
5-Ice cap 90%
6-Launch base city 92%
7-Mushroom hills 88%
8-Flying battery 89%
9-Sandopolis desert 77%

11-Knuckles Hidden palace 82%
12-Sky sanctury 88%
13-The Death Egg Zone 89%
14-Domesday 91%
15-Nuclear secret zone(I'm not sure how you unlock this)95%
Verdict: A great game that involves action, adventure and sharp platforming skills. Should be in every Genisis collection. 93%
The best Sonic video game, in my opinion
As said above, I think this is the best Sonic title of the Genesis four (1, 2, 3 & S&K). In this game we see Sonic going up against Robotnick and a hoard of new mechanical enemies. After Sonic knocked Robotnicks evil Death Egg machine out of the sky in Sonic 3, it landed on the Floating Island. Now stuck in the biggest volcano on the island, Robotnick needs the master Chaos Emerald to get it out. But guess who lives on Floating Island? Knuckles the Echidna, the guardian of the Chaos emerald, who has a problem of his own...an evil robot who is terrorizing the island. In this game we get to play either Sonic or Knuckles, the latter having cooler moves like flying and climbing. However, Sonic's main advantage is that he has four or five more levels to his game. The two have the same levels, they're altered sometimes to suit the story of each. Although Sonic 2 was the longer game, Sonic & Knuckles is cooler because of the richer graphics and more detailed levels. You're character gets to swing from ropes, tests his arm strength on lifting machines, climb rungs over nothingness, bungee down steep cliffs, and ride a dizzying laser transport. The levels display their own little characteristics. Walk through the Mushroom Hill Zone and watch pollen fly up behind you. See the heat your character must be feeling as heatwaves rise from golden sands in the Sandopolis Zone. Fight an evil boss at the end of almost every level. Enjoy the electrifying excitement as the final showdown with Sonic and the evil Dr. Robotnic ensues. Gather all the chaos emeralds and enter a secret end level where you chase Robotnick through space as... buy the game and find out. Plus with the Sonic & Knuckles cartridge you can hook Sonic 2 to the top to play Knuckles in the that game. Put Sonic 3 on top and play all of the levels in that game combined with the ones in S & K. Put another game on top and play endless special levels. If you're looking for a good game on the Genesis console, this is it. It is hard to find, but its worth it if you're into Sonic games or adventure games. Whew!
