User blog comment:TheWarGame/Sonic Exodus - a 3D sonic fan game done right/@comment-167456-20130408173756/@comment-3027069-20130424195341

Sonic and the Secret RIngs is fun, once you get the hang of the controls. But in there lies the frustration. If you're anything like me, you will be screaming your head off five minutes in but will be laughing on the ground a few hours later.

Overall, its not as bad as many people think it is.

As for the fan game, it looks interesting but SEGA might feel threatened if the game is too good. In which case I would not want to be the developers.
