Oh boy, it's Dr. Robotnik's Revenge! Having waited so long to get revenge, Dr. Robotnik brings back his first few creations to combat Sonic. Can he defeat his arch nemesis once and for all? Or will he be foiled again? This depends on your ability to fight these old bosses.
This is one of the more arcade type hacks. Nothing has changed in the graphic and sound department. Bosses are pulled straight out of Sonic 1 and 2 as well. However, there isn't much of an actual level to go through-in fact, no level at all-to get to the boss. This could only mean one thing: a boss rush! So make sure your fingers are ready and train yourself for some boss fights, because it's time to dive in!
In this hack, you run around in the Death Egg Zone from Sonic 2, defeating boss after boss as you aim for the fastest time.Most of the bosses are from Sonic 2, knowing that game was bigger than most other Sonic titles, but you'll also encounter a Sonic 1 boss here and there. Strangely enough, all the bosses have the Sonic 2 boss music playing in the background, which is strange for some of them. No prizes for guessing which ones. Between each battle you're given a nice breather and some rings, which is very nice. In the thick of gameplay, the bosses are fun to fight, and since they are fought in chronological order (starting with the first few bosses of each game, then progressing to the later ones) there is a fair difficulty curve. After you give each and every one of them a good bashing, you are ranked according to the time you took to finish the fights. It's a nice competitive element, because without it this would be a much less addictive hack. Not that it isn't great already, mind you, because bosses in the Sonic series are fun, fair and satisfying.
Overall, Dr. Robotnik's Revenge is a brilliant boss rush for the first two Sonic games. If you're looking for something addictive and fun, this is the hack for you.
Verdict:
+ Bosses are incredibly fun to fight
+ The breather rooms are a nice thing
- Music choices are sometimes strange
With rings, clocks and ranks, this hack manages to
be one of the better boss rushes out there.
Overall: 9.2
