Sonic Lost World adapted to 3DS, a planet-hopping platformer inspired by Super Mario Galaxy. Uneven handling and occasionally awkward camera. An ambitious curiosity with mixed execution.

Description
Sonic Lost World platformer on spherical levels. Published by Nintendo, released in 2013. 50+ levels, running on orbiting worlds, Six Deadly enemies, local multiplayer. Released in Japan, North America and Europe.
Japanese version of Sonic Lost World on 3DS, a region-locked edition running only on Japanese hardware. The game exists in the West, but the Japanese variant carries its own packaging and local dub, criteria Sonic collectors favor to distinguish pressings. Its appeal lies in this regional particularity rather than a marked print scarcity.
