Sonic Runners Adventure game

Sonic's speed gets the auto-runner treatment in Sonic Runners Adventure game, a paid mobile title from Gameloft SE built on the SEGA character. It is an action runner with platforming stages, in which Sonic and his friends set out to stop Dr. Eggman across four well-known locations from the series.

In each stage the character keeps moving while the player runs, jumps, dashes and flies to clear obstacles and enemies. A roster of playable characters, including Tails, Knuckles and Shadow the Hedgehog, can be unlocked, and each has its own ability that can be upgraded over time. Buddies with their own skills can be brought along, and levels come with objectives and can be replayed. A story ties the stages together. After the first session the game can be played fully offline, though the first launch needs an internet connection. Supported languages include English, French, German, Spanish, Russian, Turkish, Arabic, Korean and others.
