### 3/5 — Fan made stuff?

*2026-07-29, version 2.32.0*

Hello, I was wondering if you could add project longstrider, sonic.EXE and last but not least, sonic.EYX. So could you please add them as some new events, it would probably make the game more famous, thanks for listening, Bye!

### 3/5 — Great, but add bosses

*2026-07-23, version 2.32.0*

I encourage anyone who reaches to get it. It’s a very addicting game and I’m playing it for a little bit but it’s so hard to get these characters like you have to add tokens and that’s really annoying. What about if you make it to some point you can unlock characters that’s just my opinion and please please please add bosses. You have two Eggman and Zazz can you please SEGA I KNOW YOU CAN DO IT. PLEASE ADD MORE BOSSES.

### 4/5 — Fun but

*2026-06-04, version 2.31.0*

Useless subscription of arcade. There is almost no addition to sonic dash with the plus version

### 5/5 — Very Good

*2026-05-16, version 2.30.0*

Hi, my name is NPC 123 and I would like to say this game is phenomenal. I have I’ve already been one day into this game and it’s already been better than all the games since 1990.

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2026-05-15, version 2.30.0*

I waited to leave a review until I had all 89/89 achievements. Well, now that I have them, all I can say is that I have loved this game. The running is fun and exciting and becomes more challenging and difficult as the run goes on. My favorite part is all the cool characters you can unlock. There is an insane amount of playable Sonic characters and some of them are very cool; you’ll easily find one you’ll play all the time. I also randomly loved the progression system of unlocking things for the badnik animal things at each level. 

Some downsides I have to the game: the gems are useless after unlocking all the building stuff. This also makes it annoying to be awarded gems when they can’t be redeemed for anything after a while of playing. If we could spend gems to buy a small amount of red coins or something that would be awesome. 
The character set is too diverse - which is great for playable characters, but the achievements that need you to do something with a specific character kind of stinks. One, for example, is the Popstar Amy or something like that, where getting the character is hard enough, but you then needed to do something that took a lot of time to get the achievement. Not knowing when a certain character will be available for unlock again is kind of frustrating when trying to 100% the achievements but that is likely not a deal breaker for most people. Another thing I disliked was the boss battles. I would typically just back out of a run if I ended up in the boss battles because they’re tedious and don’t add much to the run for the amount of time they take to finish. It’s nice having them in there as a change of pace, but for me I didn’t really care about them. They are very fun though, they’re animated and have voice lines, it’s just that it doesn’t ever change so there isn’t much reason to revisit them. 

A glitch I found was when you pause and end a run right after you hit all the arrow movements to unlock a reward at those end spring things, occasionally it would crash the game. The best part is that if the game crashed the moment you unlocked a new character, you are awarded the 500-ish character tokens as extra tokens which ends up being a huge help as it saves you the 125 or so extra that you need to be able to fully max each character’s level with.
Another random thing is if you swipe left or right really quickly in the middle of a jump over a hole or something you can make the character zip into the abyss and it ends your run. Which is funny to see when it happens.

To wrap this up, this game is great. I played it pretty much since it was released on Apple Arcade and I’ve enjoyed it and loved seeing all the awesome Sonic characters in the game. I recommend this to anyone who enjoys Sonic, endless runners, and/or someone who enjoys a casual game where you can just play and shut your mind off a bit.

Thank you, SEGA!

### 5/5 — Goodie

*2026-05-07, version 2.30.0*

Love you

### 5/5 — Lag

*2026-04-25, version 2.30.0*

The game keeps on loading and won’t let me play so can you fix the bug

### 2/5 — Review

*2026-04-17, version 2.29.0*

It never counts all the money I collect and it has major bugs going on. Would be pretty funny if it actually would work

### 5/5 — Me likes!

*2026-04-03, version 2.29.0*

Ok, no, I’m not 2 from ^ up there, I just felt like that, now I can get to the real reason I am writing a review. More metal sonic FUN stuff. I mean Neo and Reaper are good, but I’d like something fun, like Panda Amy or Nutcracker Silver. That would be fun and cute because I LOVE Metal Sonic he is my fav. My idea of something: you should have Ninja Metal Sonic, you have NINJA EVERYTHING ELSE so why not Metal? I reeeeeeeally like this game even if I complete everything, like that other guy said, It’s still fun as all get out! So great game I recommend for someone who doesn’t mind having completed a game and still plays it for new content! I 😍 SEGA!!!

### 4/5 — Solid runner game

*2026-03-30, version 2.29.0*

This game is great to pickup whether you just have a few minutes or even longer stretches when I’m trying to get a character through an event.

That said I have a couple of suggestions to improve enjoyability. It would be nice if I stopped getting character tokens for characters that I have either maxed out or already have 999 tokens for.

It would also be nice if there was a way to convert gems into either rings or character tokens. I’m currently sitting at 17k gems and can’t spend them on anything because I have maxed out the buildings and my xp modifier is maxed out as well. This leaves me with zero reason to do the daily missions since they only give xp and gems. Maybe allow those to reward rings and red stars?

### 5/5 — I love sonic dash

*2026-03-19, version 2.29.0*

I love how sonic dash gets me so into this game and I just love how fun this in

### 5/5 — Fun

*2026-03-18, version 2.29.0*

It’s so fun when I play in the afternoon you get more wins

### 5/5 — The best game

*2026-03-15, version 2.29.0*

I just love it

### 5/5 — Nostalgia and straightforward gaming fun

*2026-03-15, version 2.29.0*

I loved the “Sega” sound as a child. It’s a core memory. This is a straightforward game play. No asking for tokens you “buy” with your money. Strategic game play gets you the stars, coins, and credits for upgrades. It’s so refreshing to play for fun and not for a run on my bank account. A great way to enjoy an old school style of gaming and have achievable goalposts in gameplay.

### 3/5 — No combo meter?

*2026-03-05, version 2.28.0*

I personally prefer the old menu design this version used over the static background of the standard version, but the combo meter from Sonic Dash 2 added a reason to try and near-miss obstacles and made the gameplay more entertaining and skill-based, I think it and things like the faster dash panels should be added to this version of the game.

### 5/5 — Sonic dash

*2026-02-28, version 2.28.0*

Sonic dash is a game were you have to run collect coins and defeat eggman.It’s so fun and it’s for free!

### 5/5 — Grate game

*2026-02-16, version 2.28.0*

I rate your game 5stars

### 4/5 — Missing potential

*2026-02-05, version 2.28.0*

The only thing keeping me going are new character events, that by itself isn’t a great incentive to buy a monthly subscription. It would be great to give the game a few exclusive zones and different ways to obtain characters. As of right now this feels lackluster compared to the free version or Sonic Prime Dash considering its exclusive zone despite the lack of updates.

### 5/5 — When

*2026-01-24, version 2.27.0*

When does the movie sonic event start?

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Buggy and poor customer service

*2026-07-09, version 2.32.0*

In app purchases do not work when I contacted the support they closed the case without assuring there was a resolution

### 1/5 — Good for a what it was

*2025-09-04, version 2.24.0*

I had fun until I finished all of the content and it only really took a week. Upgrading the builder was fun and gave me motivation to keep playing until it was completed now there is no more upgrading. The only thing keeping me going is new characters but that’s getting tiring too. I expected more levels to be updated and therefore more builders while gaining more characters but nothing seems to be added. Even more bosses would be fun even if the mechanics are the same.

### 1/5 — Never works

*2025-06-24, version 2.23.0*

I have downloaded this game several times. It crashes at the beginning every time.

### 1/5 — Meh boring

*2025-06-03, version 2.23.0*

Like boring like add sticks the badger and the characters that you forgot and plus your costumer service is not working

### 1/5 — Constantly crashing

*2025-05-26, version 2.22.1*

It was a lot of fun while it worked for a week. Now it doesn’t even open. Tried on several devices and doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Plagued with adds even after purchase

*2025-04-14, version 2.21.0*

No good

### 1/5 — Leadership boards

*2025-03-31*

Update- so I deleted the app and re-downloaded it hoping that maybe it would start letting me post my scores on the leadership board. It’s been almost 24 hours and my iCloud account still has not synced my information so I can get all my characters and levels back that I’ve already unlocked, yo what is up with your game man!!. I’m leaving one star purely because I can’t for the life of me figure out why my scores have never made it unto the leadership board. My sons got my playing the game, mainly to help them get a character, and I noticed my score was never on the leadership, I once hit over 2 mil and still nothing. Then I get both of my sons there own device with sonic dash+ installed and they are both on the leadership board with only a few thousand? What gives? Fix this!! Why are my points not being recorded to the leadership board?

*2025-02-08, version 2.20.0*

It won’t loaddddddddd :((((( I want to get the limited characters but can’t 😭 AND AFTER I GOT MY IPHONE UPGRADED ALL MY PROGRESS IS GONE

### 1/5 — Game has bug on prize wheel

*2025-01-31, version 2.20.0*

When you win dashes(regardless if it’s the 1,3,or 5 prize dashes) on the prize wheel, about half the time they aren’t added to your account. Game needs to be patched to fix this.  Other than that fun game

### 1/5 — This game is horrible

*2025-01-02, version 2.19.0*

When ever I got rid of it to save room for Roblox and when I redownload it made me start over

### 5/5 — Multiplayer??

*2026-08-30, version 2.32.0*

Nice game, but please add multiplayer.

### 5/5 — Needs update

*2026-08-23, version 2.32.0*

The game is great I love it but it needs a serious boss update

### 5/5 — SO FUN!

*2026-08-09, version 2.32.0*

This game keeps going and going but there’s six stages so I want more stages to this game

### 5/5 — Very good this was pure nostalgia

*2026-07-01, version 2.32.0*

Sonic dash💔 sonic dash+ ❤️‍🩹

### 5/5 — SO FUN! But…

*2026-07-01, version 2.32.0*

Well there are a few more things that is wrong. 1. When I got on it took so long and 2. There are a lot more characters that I can’t keep track of it.

### 5/5 — Fang the Sniper / Nack the Weasel?

*2026-06-21, version 2.31.0*

I love Sonic Dash+ especially with no ads! But I'm hoping one day Nack the Weasel/ Fang the Sniper will eventually be a playable character in game. Most of us Sonic fans grew up with Nack/Fang, he was one of the original 4 characters in the Sonic games. Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Nack/Fang... make it happen Sega :)

### 5/5 — Why so fun

*2026-05-28, version 2.31.0*

I love sd +

### 5/5 — Fun game!

*2026-05-27, version 2.30.0*

For a sonic game with endless running, this game is quite good to pass the time but as well as get other sonic characters like super sonic and beat high scores! Highly recommend

### 5/5 — Weird bugs and glitches

*2026-05-25, version 2.30.0*

Hello sega team, Im a huge sonic fan and love everything sonic. In this game (in which I love the most of) there are some weird bugs that I have introduced. These bugs and glitches consist of, random end of runs without me ending or crashing, running in the air after using the jump pad at the and of the run, going through obstacles (phasing), dash and shield sometimes don’t work for protecting, and more. I’d love to get with you guys and give you every single issue. Anyways love the games

### 5/5 — Defeating the boss

*2026-05-17, version 2.30.0*

Every time I defeat the boss I win!
Every time I don’t defeat the boss I lose.
