Dream Team was a huge surprise! I was worried going in because it feels like conversations about this game suddenly dropped after release, but this is without a doubt the best feeling Sonic game in years. Each character feels great to control!

It fell flat in a lot of places, mainly the final boss, overall story and music, but it’s just a mobile game at the end of the day. That being said, despite the game being themed on dreams, the levels don’t feel quite wacky enough, it just feels like a regular Sonic game. It would’ve been cool for this game to be given a more unique and memorable identity, similar to how Mario Wonder stands out with the wonder seed gimmick. But again, it’s just a mobile game.

Overall, game felt great to play, level design was solid, and the game looks beautiful! Definitely worth checking out if you have Apple Arcade, and I hope this project inspires some changes in future console Sonic games!
