Item Description

Every Badnik on Flicky Island has a prisoner inside. Dr. Robotnik has discovered that the island's Flickies, small birds able to travel between dimensions through giant rings, can help him hunt down the Chaos Emeralds, so he has been sealing them inside his robots. Sonic's job in Sonic 3D Blast is to smash those machines open, gather the freed Flickies trailing behind him, and deliver them to the big ring that carries them to safety. It is a different rhythm from the side-scrolling games, part speed and part search, played out from an angled isometric view that gives every stage a toy-diorama look.

Each zone is a self-contained stretch of island with its own personality: the grassy loops of Green Grove, the crumbling stonework of Rusty Ruin, the bumpers and springs of Spring Stadium, the snowfields of Diamond Dust, then Volcano Valley, the factory corridors of Gene Gadget and finally the clockwork toy-box of Panic Puppet. Flickies come in different colors with different habits, some following obediently while others wander off and need to be chased down, and one hit from an enemy scatters the whole flock. Hold on to fifty rings and track down Tails or Knuckles hiding in a stage, and they will open the way to a bonus round with a Chaos Emerald up for grabs.

The Saturn release is the version with real extras. Traveller's Tales built the game, but on Sega's 32-bit console the bonus rounds were rebuilt by Sonic Team as fully 3D runs down a winding track, and the visuals pick up richer effects throughout. The music is different too: Richard Jacques composed an all-new score for the Saturn, a bright, melodic, very late-90s set that sounds nothing like the Genesis soundtrack and has its own following among Sonic fans.

Sonic 3D Blast also holds an unusual place in Saturn history. With the ambitious Sonic X-treme cancelled, this was the closest the console came to a new starring platformer for its mascot, arriving for the 1996 holiday season alongside the Genesis version. Playing it on the Saturn means hearing Jacques' music and running Sonic Team's bonus stages exactly as they were made for the system, which is reason enough to choose this edition over the cartridge.
