80I don't feel threatened at all. Then again, Sonic HAS passed, so... not so scary anymore. Also hello, Master System. And goodbye, Master System.

Sonic the Hedgehog is a 1991 platform video game in the Sonic the Hedgehog series that was released on October 25, 1991 for the Sega Master System and on December 28, 1991 for the Sega Game Gear. Developed by Ancient, it is the distinct 8-bit version of the more popular 16-bit game. In addition to its original release as a cartridge, the game was later built into some versions of the Sega Master System II in Europe. It was the last game released for the Sega Master System in North America. A sequel, titled Sonic The Hedgehog 2, was released one year later.
The game sees players playing as Sonic the Hedgehog as he travels across South Island to steal it from the evil Dr. Ivo Robotnik. Sonic is able to attack enemies by performing a Super Sonic jump Attack, either by jumping into the air or rolling on the ground, the latter of which can also send Sonic off ramps. By collecting rings, Sonic can protect himself from damage from enemies and obstacles. Sonic will lose a life if he is hit without carrying any rings, or if he drowns or falls into a bottomless pit. Items found throughout the game include extra speed, speed shoes, everlasting invincibility, shields and checkpoints. Throughout the game, Sonic travels through six zones, each consisting of two main acts and a boss battle stage. At the end of each main act, the player hits a Goalpost which can award bonuses depending on how many rings Sonic is carrying. If the player has over 50 rings, they can access a bonus stage where more rings and continues can be collected. In each zone, there is a Chaos Emerald hidden somewhere in one of the acts, with a good ending awarded if the player finds all of them and completes the game.
