Sonic Origins is a remaster of four classic platform games featuring the super-fast blue hedgehog - Sonic CD. It provides entertainment in the "good old style" or in a refreshed version. Set was developed and published by SEGA.
As in most games with Sonic in the lead role, our hero together with his friends, Tails and Knuckles, must stop the plans of devious Dr. Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik and prevent him from taking over the world.
Our task is to 2D or 3D levels as quickly as possible (depending on the game) by jumping and using special abilities of the characters - in Sonic's case, it's developing progressively faster speed. Along the way we have to defeat or avoid enemies, we can also collect gold rings which unlock additional lives and hidden locations, as well as increase the final score. At the end of stages boss fights are waiting for us. Levels can often be ed in several ways, by taking different paths.
Game offers two single-player game modes - classic, with original resolution and limited number of lives, and jubilee, with upgraded full-screen graphics and unlimited lives.

Game Ratings for Sonic Origins Video Game.
Metro GameCentral: 7 / 10
A competent but flawed compilation of the four best Sonic the Hedgehog games, which adds a half-hearted modern twist to the classic games.
Tom's Guide: 4.5 / 5 by Tony Polanco
Anyone who has somehow never played any of the 2D Sonic games, or who needs a good shot of nostalgia, can't go wrong with Sonic Origins. Even considering my quibbles with the game, it’s hard for me not to give it a strong recommendation. This is what classic 2D platforming is all about.
Attack of the Fanboy: 4.5 / 5 by J.R. Waugh
Sonic Origins is an essential collection not only for any franchise fan with current or last-gen gaming hardware but also for anybody who appreciates tight gameplay with a banger soundtrack. Sonic is the ultimate "Animal With an Attitude" mascot still having major games released to this day, and while the franchise has had a tarnished reputation due to sub-par releases lately, it remains plucky and pushes forward, never losing sight of its roots.
