This game is awful
Let's begin this review with the graphics. They are very impressive. That's the only good thing I have to say about this game. The game is colorful and it looks better than most games on the Game Gear. There are this one part where I feel like I might have a seizure though. But that's only when you get invincibility and the screen flashes on and off. I also don't like the cruddy angle. It is worse than the Sonic 3D Blast angle. Other than those problems, the graphics are excellent and are definitely worth your praise.
The sound in this game is nothing special. In fact, I'll say even Somari for the Famicom has more interesting music than this! If you saw my review of that game, then you know how I feel about that music. At least the sound effects are decent. Like the medium pitched "hoo ah" when you get a power up. I somewhat tolerate the high pitched, speedy "traa" when you pick up keys. The only sound I strongly dislike is the high pitched, super fast "twaa" when you pick up rings. I rated the sound low mostly because of the music. The first level's is all "dwaa duh duh duh duh dwaa". But that is my favorite soundtrack in the game. And that's just sad.
This is a game I am never going to play again. I just can't stand this game. In fact,I think 1 is too generous for this game in this department. Even 0.0 is too generous for the addictiveness. If you like this game, I hope I didn't offend you! That pretty much covers the addictiveness, so let's move on to the story.
This game has the worst story of any game I've ever played. That says a whole lot. I mean, Robotnik stealing Sonic's shoes and giving him heavy shoes? That's just a really bad excuse for a story. I think Sega had 5 seconds to come up with a story, and that was the best they could think of. I mean, come on. Even Sonic '06 has a better story than this! In fact, Sonic '06 is the best game ever compared to this one!
This game is pretty small. Only 12 levels outside of the b... Read the rest of this Review

One of the best games ever!
Let's begin this review with the graphics. They are simply amazing for this period of time! If you've played this game, you know exactly what I mean. For the time this game was released, the graphics for this game were legendary!
The same with the graphics, the music and sound in this game were legendary for its time. In fact, I would say it is better than some of the soundtracks we hear on modern consoles. World 1-1's music will be stuck in my head forever! The sound effects are even better than some later games. I'm looking at you, Mario's Time Machine! No offense if you like that game! That pretty much covers music and sound, so let's move on to addictiveness.
Is this game addicting? Oh yes it is! It is one of the most addictive games I've ever played!. That says a lot, because I've played some pretty addictive games before,like the original Sonic games. Don't get me wrong, they are great games, just like this one, but this game comes to my mind first when I think of classics and addictiveness.
The story in this game is pure classic. Bowser kidnaps the princess and Mario has to save her. But he keeps showing up in the wrong castle. For the time, this was the best story ever! I'll even say it is way better than some other stories presented many years later. I'm looking at you, Sonic '06!
This game is huge for the time! It takes a lot of practice to master this game. It was slightly easier for me, since I grew up on Super Mario Bros. Deluxe for the Game Boy Color. This game might be the biggest game on the system before Zelda! That's why I rated it so high.
Is this game difficult? Yes it is! It can get frustrating later on. I will give you a hint, though. Don't get frustrated. This game is supposed to be fun. Don't get mad just because you can't beat one level! That's how I beat Super Mario Bros. Deluxe, which is basically a remake of this game. So the same rules apply!
Overall, this game is a g... Read the rest of this Review

This game is terrible
To begin this review, let's start with the graphics. They are pretty good for NES standards. My only main complaint with the graphics is that it is very difficult to see enemies in some areas. I also like the title screen. It is excellent for this time. The graphics are overall impressive for a NES/Famicom game.
For music, it is nothing special. In fact, it is terrible compared to other games on the system. Even for a pirated game, it is still awful. It is still great compared to some other pirated games. For example, it sounds beautiful next to Sonic Adventure 7, Sonic 3D Blast 5(Game Boy) and Pokémon Gold (Famicom). The sound effects are bad as well. It is like a high pitched "shrew" when you pick up rings. It sounds like a high pitched, "Dee dee dee dee" when you hit spikes or and enemy. Concluding the sound, it just isn't good at all.
Moving on to addictiveness, I wouldn't play this again. It is just Mario trying (and failing) to be Sonic. I just don't know why somebody would play this more than once. No offense to anyone who might like this game! Even for a pirated game, which I don't expect a lot out of, it has no addicting quality whatsoever.
The story of Somari is basically the same as the story in the original Sonic. The only difference here is that it isn't an enjoyable experience to go through in this game. And I am not sure, but if you can get Chaos Emeralds, it is even more tedious and stressful here than in any of the real Sonic games. Overall, the story is the same as the original Sonic, but more stressful to progress through.
The size of the game is smaller than the original Sonic. Why is it smaller? There is no Scrap Brain Zone! If that spoiled it, I apologize. But it is shorter than the greatness of Sonic 1 on the Genesis. I don't know what else must be said here. It is almost impossible to beat, but I never bothered to finish it. I got to final zone and died basically automatically.

This is one of the worst games I've ever played!
My first problem with this game is the controls. They don't respond that good. To say the least, they make Sonic 3D Blast 5's (Famicom) controls seem like Mario controls. Then is the graphics. Everything is poorly colored and blurred is some cases. The graphics here make E.T. On the Atari 2600 look beautiful! Even Pong has better graphics. If there is even a story here, it's not a very good one. I can't tell if there is one. The game is meh... medium. It can take a while to beat, but isn't enjoyable to do so. If that wasn't bad enough, the music is really bad. The sound is also like a high pitched "chew". The music is terrible for even Game boy standards. It makes Somari music sound gorgeous! All in all, this game is just bad. I've played some terrible games, but this is one of the worst. Since I've played many terrible games, saying this is possibly the worst says a lot.
