Sonic makes a colorful comeback!
Just as everyone is saying: the fast hedgehog is back! Sonic Colours not only offers fun gameplay but also beautiful backgrounds (and tasty ones too!), stunning graphics, and funny and/or enjoyable cutscenes. The new creatures called Wisps add to the fun with their cool power-ups. The bosses are creatively designed, making them unique.
Some bosses are a bit too easy, and the last few worlds have levels that can be frustrating. The controls sometimes don't respond, but it doesn't happen often enough to become a major issue. What can be quite annoying is that in most levels, you can't collect all the red rings in one go; you have to come back with the right power-up.
Despite that, Sonic Colours comes highly recommended for those who enjoy fast-paced platforming. It offers gameplay in both 2D and 3D.

17 tips: 7 Easter Eggs and Glitches - 6 Secrets - 4 Personal tipsSecrets:
Where is Super Sonic in Sonic Colours and how can I unlock him?
After playing all the levels, defeating the final boss, and completing the rest of the game Sonic Colors, there's only one thing that seems to be missing: where is Super Sonic? Every game featuring our favorite blue hedgehog has a final boss that is typically defeated by Sonic's well-known golden transformation. However, upon finishing this game, you'll likely be disappointed to find that Super Sonic is nowhere to be found. What now?
Don't worry: Super Sonic is indeed present in this game as well, but he's just a bit more hidden than in previous games. Instead of simply playing through the story as usual, you now need to make sure to collect all the red rings (a total of 180) and then complete all the levels of the Sonic Simulator. Only then will you unlock Super Sonic as an option in the Options Satellite of Sonic Colors.
If you think this sounds like too much work, just remember that in this game, you can use Super Sonic not only for the final boss but for every level throughout the entire game...

How can I earn extra lives and rings by attacking numbers on the results screen?
Do you feel like you don't have enough lives to move on to the next level right after completing one? Make sure that in the results screen (where you see your time and points) you attack as many of the numbers on that screen as possible. If you manage to break them, usually extra rings will come out, but sometimes even extra lives! Give this trick a try in Sonic Colours.

Personal tip:
How can I dodge all the boss's attacks in Sonic Colours?
Luc |
 | 11 jaar |
At the final boss of Sonic Colors, you can easily dodge all attacks.
Laser attack: simply jump over the lasers.
Cubes: use the quick step to avoid them (if he also shoots balls, you need to jump about three, two times, and when he combines it with the laser, don't use the quick step but walk in the middle)
Balls: jump and when he gets closer, use the homing attack. Keep doing this until you have one of each type of wisp (if you deal enough damage to the boss, you will get one or two wisps) and use the combined colors. The final boss will then be defeated, and you will see fireworks in the shape of an Eggman head.
