This is... a mixed bag.
On one hand, the simple pleasure of just traveling this landscape with these new characters is just inherently fun to me. Amy and Tails are pretty fun to platform with. And the final boss (At least on Easy) is genuinely great!
On the other hand, like the base game, the combat is an absolute joke, especially with the new characters. Knuckles, while still fun in his own way, is HEAVILY scuffed. Sonic's towers are some of the most frustrating platforming sections in the series, and OH MY GOD, that boss rush is one of the tedious things I've played in awhile. It practically RUINED the Wyvern boss for me.
Overall, this update was a mixed bag, but I am glad I played it at least once.
