Much like the main game, it's a complete mess, but in new and unique ways. It's not nearly as boring, thanks to a host of platforming challenges that are annoying and confusing. I sure do love needing to find an item marked by a waypoint out in the middle of nowhere over the ocean, and the path there is entirely invisible because it hasn't popped in yet. It fails to communicate on such an impressive level. Combine this with the terrible music, boring and annoying combat challenges, a pointless boss rush that just hammers home how lacking they were in the first place, and an obnoxious final boss makes this a disaster.

Although, there were sparks of hope here and there unlike the base game. A few cyberspace levels actually had interesting level design and cool skips you could do with the spindash. Combined with tighter windows for s-ranks and challenges, it actually felt like I was playing a sonic game again. But then the rest of the dlc just drags it all back down.
