Sonic Mania is a platforming game developed by Headcannon and published by SEGA. Developed to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Sonic franchise, this game is designed to look and play just like the original games for the SEGA Genesis console.
Sonic Mania features three playable characters: Sonic himself, Tails, and Knuckles. All of them have unique abilities to ensure gameplay variety. Sonic has his trademark dash, Tails is capable of flight, and Knuckles can climb walls. The game has 13 different levels; however, only five of them are fully original. The other eight are adapted from previous Sonic games. Although this has caused some criticism – people would’ve preferred more new content – all of them are fun to play. All levels feature two boss fights and cutscenes that gradually reveal the game’s story.
The game can be played on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Nintendo Switch version is available for those who wish to play on the go, and Windows users were not neglected either; a digital version of the game can be purchased on Steam. Unsurprisingly, there’s no official Mac support, but you can play Sonic Mania on Mac nonetheless. How? The guide below will answer this question.
