Gameplay
Like the original Sonic Jump game, the goal is get to the Goal Plate at the end of each act by jumping up from each platform to other. Like normally in Sonic games, collecting rings will protect you from Badniks or spikes. The only way how the player can defeat Badniks is attack under of them. However if the playable character falls down, the player has to try again at the beginning of the act. Also as the player bounces higher, camera follows as well and does not scroll down if the player does falls down. Some of platforms are different as more sensitive of them collapses when the player steps on them once. Each of playable characters have their own abilities to survive from many situations.

In addition to rings, the game has three collectible Red Rings per act. The game has springs which bounces the player higher. The game has also monitors, which usually contains different kinds of shields, bombs, magnets and shoes. There's also ring banks, which deposit of the rings what have you been collected. With these rings you can purchase them in store, to unlock characters, power ups, etc.The player can also purchase rings with real money to and thus buying power-ups.

The game has two modes, story and arcade. Story mode includes 48 levels, as each zone contains 12 acts and follows the game's plot. The story mode has also three bonus missions per act.
