surprisingly an absolute banger!! it's such a shame it's apple arcade exclusive because this game deserves to be played by more people! the plot isn't the most amazing thing in the world but the fact that this game has a plot and full voice acting at all is really awesome!
the controls are what makes this game SO good! they're impressively responsive and each character is satisfying to control. in particular, i love the way rail grinding and light speed dashing works in this game, it's some of the most responsive on the series! the level design is awesome too with each level being inspired by a skatepark with multiple different paths to take.
such an awesome game, highly recommend it if you're able to play it!

An.. Apple Arcade exclusive developed alongside the mobile game team… okay then. This game was announced out of the blue and it’s exclusivity to apple devices had me worried, despite thinking the gameplay looked interesting. In the end I was surprised by how much fun this ended up being, though its mobile game roots still hold it back.
Dream team has a story with full voice acting, and while the plot is nothing to talk about, the animation in the cutscenes is nothing short of amazing. While graphically it’s held back by its mobile nature, the dreamy aesthetics are brilliant , and completely original for the series.
Gameplay is a hybrid between the older more explorative styles, and the modern boost formula. The result is a pretty smooth mix that, with a controller and a few camera issues aside, captures the positives of both styles and incorporates them into some fantastic level design. There’s 3 types of characters and each lets you explore levels in different ways, which is good when there’s only 16 stages.
Now each act does have lots of smaller missions which can be fun, but this is mostly to fill the time. Dream Teams levels are brilliant but I wish there was more here I can see the potential for a really fleshed out game, and apparently it’s getting updated, but as is, Dream Team is a welcome surprise- 7.3/10

This is a good game but its main issue is that it’s not super interesting
It features all of the 3D sonic tropes of scripting and simplistic mechanics quite often throughout each level and it can become kinda underwhelming
However when alls said and done the speed tech you can pull off here is fun and generally lines itself up pretty well among the best 3D games in the series considering how few issues it has

cool game, did not feel like renewing after my apple arcade trial to finish it, and i honestly feel like its format, and overall structure hurt it more than help it, but i think it's neat despite that. would love to see hardlight make a larger game following up on this though.
I wish I did not sleep on this when this first came out, this is definitely the best Sonic game of 2023. I really hope that this can be the style for the next Sonic game, plus the open-zones of Sonic Frontiers. Pretty good. It is a shame that this is a Apple Arcade exclusive.
PLATFORM: iPad
GOAL: Clear Story Mode
PROGRESS: Somewhere in Zone 3
I'm not asking my sister for her iPad back to finish this game, so have an early review that's written way later than when I actually played it.
Controls feel like a gutted Frontiers that just so happens to have momentum physics (which kind of have next to no point due to the lack of a roll button and the insistence on keeping a low running speed cap a la Lost World), level design is kind of too easy and unmemorable, the game has some of the most annoying padding I've seen, the music is criminally bland, Cream and Rouge do not sound the best, and I forgot what Ariem does.
I hyped up Sonic Dream Team as my dream game, but all it did was put me to sleep.
