![]() ![]() ![]() These allow you to reach previously locked-off areas, defeat certain enemies more easily, and so on. To do that, you’ll need to find weapons and gadgets that are hidden within the levels. And these abilities won’t be enough to get anywhere. Your only attack at the start is the ability to throw bombs at enemies. You can walk, jump, duck, and fly for a little while, but you can’t do anything related to rolling – you don’t roll in the air, you can’t roll while moving, and you can’t do a Spin Dash. The biggest change, however, relates to your skillset. Rings can only be found in fragile walls and as occasional enemy pickups. You have a set number of rings, which you lose when hit, and will die when you run out of them. The health system has been radically changed, scrapping the collectible rings seen in other games for a more traditional hit point counter. Instead of speeding through levels and rolling into enemies, you have to walk everywhere and stop to throw bombs at anything in your path. The most obvious one is how much slower the game is compared to the rest of the series. However, it’s also a Metroidvania, and a lot of changes have been made to the gameplay in order to accommodate this. Tails Adventures is a 2D platformer where your goal is to explore the levels and try to reach the end of them. ![]() It’s the Battle Kukkus, an army of heavily weaponized birds led by Grand Battle Kukku 15th, and they’re here to find the Chaos Emeralds rumored to be hiding on this island! Now it’s up to Tails to take on the Battle Kukku and stop their dastardly plans. On Cocoa Island, a tiny isle that can’t be found on any map, Tails is taking a break from working on inventions when the forest is suddenly set ablaze by birds piloting dangerous robots. And despite a couple of problems, it’s a surprisingly solid example of the genre that fans should check out. The second Tails spin-off is Tails Adventures, another Game Gear exclusive that stands out for being the only game in the entire franchise to be a Metroidvania – a sub-genre of platformers with a large focus on exploration and acquiring upgrades to reach previously unreachable areas (other games in the series, such as Sonic Boom: Shattered Crystal or Sonic Adventure 2, would only use bits and pieces of this formula). ![]()
