Sonic the hedgehog, the fastest runner in the west, east, south and any other compass directions you could possibly think of.
Famous for running around and moving fast, it's hard to imagine him standing still for a single moment.

But what if that were to change? What if he suddenly decided he weren't going to move an inch? The games would be completely impossible, right?

Well, not in Sonic 3 & Knuckles if you're playing Sonic & Tails mode and a certain orange fox by his side. By using a second controller, Tails can be moved by another player. If he flies above Sonic's head, he can pick him up and carry him for as long as he can stay in the air.

Many years ago, back in the "I made too many Sonic challenges" era, the very first challenge I did was the Sonic Cripple Challenge, where I attempted to beat various acts from these games without moving Sonic at all and carrying him everywhere as Tails. Today, I decided to revive this topic...


The rules are simple. Just reach the end as many acts as possible without once touching any buttons on the first player's controller, excluding the pause button if you really need to stop for any reason. This leaves all the work to Tails. Can any acts be beaten this way? Watch the video and find out...


This challenge was also attempted in Sonic The Hedgehog 3, see the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULxv2mCrLQI
