It's really just the rigid Flicky collect-a-thon nature and the dodgy controls/hit detection that sink it. The graphics and music I'd say are just as good as the Genesis titles, while the level design has more thought put into it than given credit for with its isometric format (hidden rooms, emphasis on non-linear level structures, and retaining some focus of stage gimmicks). Out of the four, it's the one where you've have to put the most work in to turn it around into a halfway decent game.ДЈD is a game that I don't think is as bad as it's said to be, but at the same time I feel there are definitely that had some design choices been addressed earlier in production, the game would improve significantly. The level design is outright bland by Sonic standards and rudimentary by general platforming standards and it seriously hurts the core co-op tether mechanic, which wasn't well implemented to begin with. Really nice graphics and music, but the actual gameplay is extremely uninteresting.

I am interested in giving it another shot in the near future and trying to play it through to completion.Д¬haotix I'd say is definitely a game that gets its somewhat-revered status for its rarity far more than its actual quality. But from what I can recall, the physics/controls (which were nowhere near as good as the Genesis titles) were just hard to get past. I actually like the 'antithesis' concept of it (going from platforming games with pinball physics towards a pinball game with platforming sections) and would like to see it revisited in another game (presumably as a smaller element within a traditional game, instead of being a separate spinoff title). Spinball is a game that I could never really get far into when I played it in the past.
