Editorial Reviews :
Sony and Sega always have had a way of looking at successful Nintendo games and saying, 'We can do that!' (See Crash Team Racing, for one example.) Now, Sega has all but copied Mario Party and produced its own version of a digital board game, which features the Sonic cast of characters.
Sonic Shuffle, as it's known, easily could have been called Sonic Party, because of the countless similarities between it and the Nintendo title. Players move from space to space--going after Precioustones (instead of stars), collecting rings along the way (instead of coins), and participating in minigames (same for both). As an added twist, characters also get into card battles with monsters, ŕ la Pokémon.
Unfortunately, the minigames in Sonic Shuffle are painfully uninspired and frequently un-fun. Also, players are forced to sit through battles between the computer and the computer. The fact that four can play is a plus; but, on the whole, this one's just a pretender to the throne.
Buyer Reviews :
Party games are all the rage. Sonic Shuffle, the Dreamcast's Mario Party and Crash Bash, was sold just after the release of Sonic Adventure to keep it popular. In Sonic Shuffle, you start out with 4 characters-4 others are hidden. The object of the game is to race around the board collecting rings, Precioustones, Forcejewels and other knicknacks. The graphics are very anime-esque, and I love the music. Just listen to the tutorial background music! My only complaint, though, is that it's too cookie-cutter--you have to beat the level in 1st place to continue to the next level. The plot? Very ridiculous. Overall okay.
