master! Very challenging set and I loved playing it, I've always played Sonic 3 and Knuckless so I was quite surprised by the difference in the level design and the difficulty.
jaydee03 5 Jan 2024 04:10
Mastered. That Hydrocity Act 1 speedrun achievement sure is something.
DerMarcus 16 Mar 2024 21:52
Mastered! My first game to have the Mastered status on here and a very good game to start off from. Learned a lot of new things while doing the achievements!
AManNamedQuest 26 Mar 2024 04:06
Mastery #10 overall and Mastery #6 on my quest to master every Sonic game. Not a bad set, easy to master. Didn't love that tails glitch in ice cap 2, but still, an overall good, easy set
green1071 26 Mar 2024 20:07
mastered!
oaktea 6 Apr 2024 20:55
Mastered! This set is really great! I felt the Hydrocity one was a bit unfair, but maybe I just don't know the trick to get it without the cheese, lol

Thank you for making this!
RetroVanny 6 May 2024 08:22
Mastery #28! Sonic 3 and Sonic & Knuckles are my 2 favorite Classic games in the series, I’m glad to have them both done.
Now onto Sonic 3 & Knuckles soon!
Thanks for the set, guys!

Mastery number 10! And a quick one at that...man I didn't think I'd do that well. Awesome game like always.
CelestialBunny 13 May 2024 06:27
Having better luck here with the emeralds than over on the S+K side, one dreads to think what the combined will be like. At least I made some progress. Unlike in S2 which just won't let me finish off the set LOL
RedGuy0028 13 May 2024 13:50
Agreed, the S2 set is kinda the black sheep of the classic family. Ugh....
CelestialBunny 14 May 2024 00:05
OMG Marble Garden is being fucking stupid! You have a blue "switch" but no way to reach this so called "doorway" with an arrow right next to it!!! How DUMB is this? Take a look...

CelestialBunny 14 May 2024 00:30
Are you fucking joking me???!!! You HAVE to use the spike platform and guide it TO the pillar!!! Who the fuck would ever do that when it clearly just looks like guide yourself to the green area and jump off! OMG that is so dumb. No normal player would ever do it the way the map intends!
AManNamedQuest 14 May 2024 00:33
If you think that's bad level design, I hope you know about the barrel of doom 👀
RedGuy0028 14 May 2024 00:36
Doooooooom.....
natedavwise13 14 May 2024 00:37
FYI, you will probably despise Sandopolis in S&K if you hate Marble Garden now…
BrutallyDigital 17 May 2024 11:34
Mastery #13. This game still holds up well on its own. If you're not a speedrunner, you might have trouble with a couple of achievements.
leira 3 Jun 2024 11:26
Mastered!
Loliamstupid 1 Jul 2024 20:53
Mastered! That was pretty fun, except Two-Tailed Victory, it was boring
MakaiPhantom 31 Aug 2024 03:03
Half of my favorite Sonic game and a good set... well besides the no ring achievement idk why devs add this to some Sonic games.
