Sonic Mania Plus - NETFLIX Reviews

Hello there! Sonic Mania Plus Netflix Edition works great in Gameplay and Graphics(I would hope so considering it’s already a masterpiece on every other device)! However, there are missing sound effects that are supposed to play multiple time’s especially in Special Stages with the Blue Spheres. When you collect them, some sounds are missing that aren’t missing in the home console and PC versions of the game, as well as the audio being quite choppy when 2 things happen at once(music playing and a sound effect or 2 plays in quick succession) and at the Act Clear/Victory Screen. I hope these audio problems can be fixed and I’ll rate it 5/5 Stars, cause this game easily deserves it after the audio is fixed! Have a great day everyone that reads this and Netflix Games!

At the time of this review, Sonic Mania Plus on mobile is available for free with an active Netflix subscription, and I’m not one to complain about a free product. Most people would say that Sonic Mania IS, in fact, one of the best Sonic games, after all.

The reason I say this needs a patch is because the audio has a couple of severe issues (delays, audible glitches, etc.) that make it difficult to enjoy the game on mobile. If this can be fixed in an upcoming patch, this would absolutely be a 5-Star game, without a doubt.

As for the game itself, it remains a refreshing return to the classics, and is definitely worth checking out if you have a Netflix subscription. It’s a port, so if you want to know more about the game itself, you can check out other reviews online.

As stated in the title, the game plays great for a port. The only problem is, the music gets annoying because of the subtle clips that happened in the background with the music. I don’t know what happened with the port job, but yeah… You might wanna fix that. oh, I also did some checking, and apparently, the gameplay audio was choppy too. Like I said, I don’t know if it was a Rushport job or what, but can you please fix it. Thanks.

Runs smoothly on my iPhone 14, looks great and performs just like its computer counterpart. However, the controls are a little funky sometimes, the analog stick on the screen is pretty snappy and looks a bit out of place. The aspect ratio doesn’t fit to my phones screen though and has black bars on the sides of my screen. If these were fixed then it would be more than amazing. Other than that, great game and feels nice playing on mobile!

I’m so hyped that I get to play mania while I’m out since it’s one of my favorite games, however I am disappointed that the audio has a lot of stuttering making it kind of hard to enjoy the music, the game isn’t in widescreen making it so that there are black bars on both sides of the screen, and a lack of customizing the controls.

This game is way better than i expected it to be for it to be on mobile im so happy It finally came out on mobile kind of wish it was earlier but other than that its a good port now all we need is sonic 3 and knuckles so it can be complete

The game is definitely sonic mania, which is great, but the music is wrong. It sounds like its lagging. The actual game does not seem to lag but the music does, like its trying to emulate another system’s music player or it has some compression algorithm that isn’t meant for iphone. The music system probably needs to be reprogrammed for iphone.

It changed oops i’m an idiot.
So the way to unlock level select is different.
(The same as console version, but you have to press the s in the no save option.)

Been enjoying this for a little while now and really my only complaint is the audio….I really hope a hot fix for the audio crackling comes along sooner than later. Other than that, I think it’s alright.

This is one of my favorite games of all time, but, unfortunately, the sound has issues. It crackles and pops and seems to have some stuttering. Other than that, the game plays very well and is an amazing time for anyone who gives a try.

Great Game glad it’s here and all but I’ve had a major issue with it I’ve had to go through act 1 of flying battery 3 different times because the game shows it saving in the corner but in reality it ends not saving your game

It’s just a mobile port of sonic mania plus not much to say but it’s not a bad thing that it’s just a mobile port if anything at all that’s a good thing. Sonic mania is good game 10/10.

So I always dislike when games have black borders around them. Any chance you guys could extend the borders in a future update? Other wise a fantastic port

it feels a little weird not playing it on a console not gonna lie, only done the main mode and on studiopolis right now, it’s not buggy or anything but I feel like the dpad and jump button could be bigger

The photos showing off the game would have you believe it’s running at the native resolution of your iPhone. It doesn’t. It’ll run in a 16:9 window no matter the device you’re on. Giving 2 stars because it’s still sonic mania at the end of the day

I played it on Steam and on my switch I was trying to find the phone version but it now came!

I have Mania on Nintendo Switch and am extremely excited that Plus is on Netflix. Thank you Netflix! Huge W

When I’m trying to play it I’m having trouble when using it i even had some trouble on the FIRST. SPECIAL. STAGE. Besides that’s it’s a fine port.

Rather then the control stick this is very fun and I’m glad to see a mania port!

I owned the game on switch and it it is just as amazing on my phone
