Sonic at the Olympic Games

Not to be confused with Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games.

Sonic at the Olympic Games is a mobile phone game released as part of the Sega Mobile service offered by Sega.

Gameplay

In this game,

Sonic, Tails, Knuckles and Amy Rose compete for Olympic medals. There are five events: 1500m Hurdles, 400m Hurdles, Triple Jump, Discus, and Javelin. The game has one-button controls for the events, saves progress automatically, and features varying difficulty levels (Qualifying Round, Heats, Semi Finals, and the Finals). There is a high-scores board that the player can upload their scores to and compare nationally. Points are gathered by finishing an event first and gaining Rings.

Trivia

• The most likely reason for Mario and the Mario franchise characters not appearing in this game is because of Nintendo not making apps for iPhone and other iOS systems at the time.
• There was a sequel for iOS devices titled Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games, which also ditched the Mario characters. Oddly, however, the game was withdrawn from the App Store shortly after release.
