About this game

Sonic 2 XL changes the familiar ring-collecting rules of Sonic the Hedgehog 2. Onion rings make Sonic heavier and slower, changing how players approach movement and obstacles. Co-creator Captain Bozo discusses the modification and credits Ranger in a published interview. The pictured cartridge also names both creators; its physical edition and exact build remain unverified.
