A guilty pleasure game. Although it has been superceded by Sonic Mania and the like, Sonic 4 Episode 2's new mechanics added a level of depth to the Classic Sonic formula that while not needed, added a level of enjoyment to the mix for me. The tighter, more refined controls and (in my opinion) underrated graphics and artstyle should get a bit more love than they do, but the bland level design and dying-cat-riffic soundtrack probably get all the flack they deserve.
