Game Summary:
Sonic and the Secret Rings (ソニックと秘密のリング Sonikku to Himitsu no Ringu?) is a video game developed by Sonic Team and published by Sega as part of the Sonic the Hedgehog series. It was released exclusively for the Wii on February 20, 2007 in North America; March 2 in Europe; and March 15 in Japan. It is the first Sonic game for the console, released in place of an aborted attempt to port Sonic the Hedgehog. Secret Rings is a three-dimensional platform and action game whose plot follows the series’ main character, Sonic the Hedgehog, on a quest to stop an evil genie named the Erazor Djinn. In addition to the basic platforming gameplay of previous Sonic titles, Secret Rings uses a system of experience points and levels, as well as special moves that are unlocked via leveling up.
Producer Yojiro Ogawa conceived the game to tap into the Wii Remote’s capabilities. He chose the theme of Arabian Nights, using many elements of the stories in the game’s setting, characters, and Middle Eastern-influenced music. Sega changed the title of the game several times, settling on Sonic and the Secret Rings to tie in the theme of Arabian Nights. Upon release, Secret Rings was generally well-received, contrasted with its predecessors as ”definitely on the mend”.[1] Reviewers praised its visuals but criticized its controls and inconsistent difficulty. It sold 83,000 copies in its first month and continued to chart throughout the year. Sega released a sequel in March 2009, Sonic and the Black Knight; the two form what is known as the Storybook series.
