Overview
Sonic the Hedgehog: Pocket Adventure is the only Sonic the Hedgehog game released for the Neo Geo Pocket Color. It was released on December 3, 1999 in North America, and on January 11, 2000 in Japan. It was the second Sonic game to be released on a console not developed by Sega (the first being Sonic Jam for the Game.com). Sonic the Hedgehog: Pocket Adventure was developed by Dimps and Sonic Team, and published by SNK and Sega. Despite being very similar in gameplay to Sonic the Hedgehog 2, it contains many levels from Sonic the Hedgehog.
Sonic the Hedgehog: Pocket Adventure also has a multiplayer mode for up to two players. Each player must have a Neo Geo Pocket Color, a copy of the game, as well as a link cable. The multiplayer game is known as Duel Mode, with two different modes: Sonic Rush and Get the Rings. Sonic Rush has the two players racing to the end of a level, while Get the Rings has the players trying to get an amount of rings. The second player gets to play as Tails, which is unique (as Sonic is the only playable character in the single-player game).
Zones
One of the best hand held Sonic games of its time, Sonic for the Neo Geo Pocket Color had a great mix of classic Sonic characters and themes, along with unlockable puzzle pieces for various puzzles you could complete outside of the main game.
