The adventure world is a floating island (similar to most adventure worlds in the game) that features many locations from Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Sonic the Hedgehog 3, Sonic & Knuckles, and Sonic Adventure. Throughout the zone, there are races, quests from characters and rebuildable objects. Star Posts also appear that once punched, open a portal to the special stage, similar to Sonic the Hedgehog 2.

Plot

In Green Hill Zone, after collecting the final Chaos Emerald, Sonic runs to Tails' Lab to tell him the good news. However, Dr. Eggman reveals himself and has trapped Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Shadow and Big. Eggman demands Sonic to give up the last emerald so that he would not harm his friends. Eggman also tells Sonic that he planned to use all the emeralds to power his Keystone Device in order to have complete control of the Dimensions. Sonic then compliments Eggman's moustache, which distracts the evil scientist as Sonic secretly freed his friends, except for Amy who mysteriously disappeared. Eggman's Keystone Device then overloads and opens up breaches to other dimensions. One portal transports Eggman and the six Chaos Emeralds he had away while the other Emeralds transport Knuckles, Shadow and Big away. Sonic quickly tells Tails to think of a plan as he goes after Eggman.

Sonic eventually catches up to Eggman on the Death Egg and has to face his three of his robotic counterparts; two models of Mecha Sonic and Metal Sonic. After Sonic defeats all of them, Eggman flees through another portal and the hedgehog gives chase. Unknown to them, another breach opens which releases a trail of water. The water suddenly rises up and forms Chaos. While traveling through the portals, Sonic manages to snatch the Keystone Device and transports Eggman away. He then opens up another portal which Omochao, Knuckles, Shadow and Big jump out from. Sonic tells them that though he has the device he still needs to find the rest of the Chaos Emeralds. Big reveals that he saw one in Labyrinth Zone and despite having bad memories there, Sonic decides to head to the Zone quickly.

Sonic manages to get a few more Emeralds and returns to find Wyldstyle, Gandalf and Batman having a short meet with Knuckles, Shadow, Big and Omochao. After they leave, Tails arrives and tells them that Eggman had the other emerald with him while rebuilding the Death Egg again. Sonic leaves the Keystone Device with Tails and comes face-to-face with the Eggman, who is wielding the Death Egg robot. Sonic manages to get the upper hand on Eggman. However, their battle is cut short as Eggman escapes to get away from Chaos. Sonic concludes that it may have been looking for the emerald as well. Chaos hits Tails out of the sky and absorbs the Keystone Device.

While Sonic fights Chaos, Amy manages to knock out Eggman and retrieves the Chaos Emerald. She gives it to Sonic and the latter finishes off Chaos with Super Sonic by piercing its brain. The Death Egg then turns to one side which forces Amy to fall out of the Death Egg. Super Sonic manages to open a breach in order to break her fall and Eggman escapes through after, stating he would have his revenge. Super Sonic thanks Tails for his help and they enter through the portal.

Levels

The level is titled Sonic Dimensions. It features Sonic going through several locations from the series' history in order to obtain the Chaos Emeralds. At one point, the Breakfast Kingdom from Adventure Time appears as a hidden area.

Mentions and references

  • When talking to Lumpy Space Princess from Adventure Time, Sonic will mention his previous encounter with another princess but will quickly try to discard the conversation talking about it after he remembers what happened as a result of that. This likely references the backlash that the game Sonic the Hedgehog received after the infamous scene where Elise kisses Sonic.
  • One of Sonic's lines when entering into the game is "Oh yeah! This is happening... That sounded better in my head." This is a reference to Sonic Adventure as the first line Sonic said was "Oh yeah! This is happening!"
  • Another one of Sonic's lines when entering the game is "Gotta go fast!" which is the name of the Sonic X theme song, "Gotta Go Fast."
    • Sonic also uses a variation of this phrase: "gotta build fast", during the Metropolis level.
  • When teamed up with Marcenline from Adventure Time, Sonic relates to how she can turn into a wolf, referencing Sonic Unleashed.
  • Sonic will sometimes say "I can feel the sunshine, it's brightening up my day." This is a reference to the song "Can You Feel the Sunshine" from Sonic R, another game made by Travellers Tales.
  • Upon entering the Vortex for the first time, Sonic says “Whoah! Where am I? A Special Stage? Where are the rings? There's usually rings!” This is a reference as to how the Special Stages in the Sonic games usually have rings to collect.
  • The first Sonic cutscene for the game is based on the intro for the first game, but with Sonic waving a ring rather than his finger due to not having one.
  • Dr. Eggman repeatedly says "get a load of this" in his dialogue. This is a reference to the Egg Walker boss battle in Sonic Adventure, in which the line is repeated excessively.
  • At one point in the game, Shadow brandishes a gun and Knuckles quickly throws it away. This is a likely reference to some of the backlash that the video game Shadow the Hedgehog received regarding Shadow's use of firearms.
  • When the player completes Big the Cat's mission he says, that he is getting a call from a person named "Sanic". This is a reference to the popular Internet meme Sanic the Hedgehog.
  • In one of the levels, Eggman almost calls himself "Dr. Robotnik", but stops himself and calls himself Eggman. This is a reference to the inconsistency of Eggman's name early on in the series, with "Eggman" being his native name in Japan and "Robotnik" being his name in Western territories. This still remains a subject of dispute in the fanbase.
  • During one of the boss battles, Eggman calls Sonic "Needlemouse" which is a reference to Sonic's original name "Mr. Needlemouse."
  • In the second cutscene, Dr. Eggman can be seen juggling the Chaos Emeralds similarly to how he does on the bad ending screen of the original Sonic the Hedgehog.
  • The boat Sonic uses the pieces of to build the Sonic Speedster resembles how it looked in its boat form in Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed.
  • During the first boss fight against Dr. Eggman, Sonic will claim his mustache is fake, referencing an unused line from Omochao in Sonic Adventure 2.
  • Sonic once again calls Eggman "Baldy McNosehair", as in Sonic Colors and Sonic Lost World.
  • In the cutscene when Big mentions the details of Labyrinth Zone, Sonic has a flashback of him drowning. This is a reference to Labyrinth Zone causing player to drown.
  • When there are two Sonic figures on the toy pad Sonic will say either, "Hey, That's my line!", "I've found you, Faker!" or "I'll make you eat those words!" These reference the lines Sonic said in Sonic Adventure 2 when he meets Shadow the Hedgehog for the second time.
  • During a cutscene, a Sega Genesis can been seen falling out of a wormhole.
  • In the Marble Zone, the infamous Barrel of Doom from Sonic the Hedgehog 3 appears.
  • Whilst fighting the Death Egg Robot, Sonic mentions it's "the fourth time [Eggman's] used it." This is a reference to the Death Egg Robot boss battles in Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I, and Sonic Generations.
  • Whilst fighting Chaos, Sonic will exclaim "I'm taking you down like it's 1999." This is a reference to the American release date of Sonic Adventure and Chaos' introduction into the series.
  • When talking to Big, the name "Big's Big Fishing Adventure 4" will hover above his head. This is a reference to the commissioned fan game Big's Big Fishing Adventure 3.
    • Gene Fujimori of Sega confirmed that they had no inclusion with this easter egg.[2]
  • Tails' Lab is modeled after its design in Sonic the Fighters.
  • The Tornado's appearance is based on its appearance in Sonic Adventure. Upgrading it allows its design to be replaced with the design for the Tornado 2 and the Tornado from the Genesis games. The Tornado 2 design also appears in the level and Tails' Lab.

Music

Due to legal rights, none of the music from the Genesis games appear in this game. However, music from the two Sonic Adventure games do appear.

  • Azure Blue World* (appears in Emerald Coast)
  • Fight for My Own Way, the rival battle theme from Sonic Adventure. (Appears when enemy waves appear in Sonic the Hedgehog World)
  • Dr. Eggman's theme from Sonic Adventure. (appears in cutscenes, boss battles against the Eggmoblie, the metal counterparts, and Eggman Parade Float in Ghostbusters level)
  • Egg Hornet music (appears during Death Egg Robot fight and cutscenes)
  • Chaos' theme (appears during first part of Chaos boss fight)
  • Open Your Heart instrumental* (appears during second part of Chaos boss fight and level results screen)
  • Believe In Myself instrumental* (appears when talking to Tails in adventure world, first version)
  • Unknown from M.E. instrumental* (appears when talking to Knuckles in adventure world, first version)
  • My Sweet Passion instrumental* (appears when talking to Amy in adventure world)
  • Lazy Days (Livin' in Paradise) instrumental* (appears when talking to Big in adventure world)
  • E.G.G.M.A.N. instrumental* (appears when talking to Dr. Eggman in the adventure world)
  • Throw It All Away instrumental* (appears when talking to Shadow in the adventure world)

Items marked with * can replace the music in any Adventure World that has its Jukebox built.

Trivia

  • LEGO Dimensions have Studs as the games form of currency. The studs are replaced with rings similar to those used in the Lord of the Rings sets. They even sound like rings when Sonic collects them.
    • A Red Brick can be obtained in the Sonic Adventure World that transforms studs in all levels and worlds into rings.
    • Getting harm by Badniks will make you lose studs, these lost studs will have same gameplay logic from studs found from breaking scenery objects in Adventure Worlds making it possible to recollect them before they vanish.
  • The enemy LEGO Buzz Bombers comes in two colours, purple and yellow. This is because they are based on the Buzz Bombers from Sonic Generations which come in these colors.
    • The yellow Buzz Bombers are based after the Buzzers, the successor Badniks to the Buzz Bombers.
  • Sonic appears in the 2016 Ghostbusters Adventure World as a parade balloon. Likewise, a ghost balloon version of Dr. Eggman is a boss in the Story Pack alongside ghost versions of Buzz Bombers and Moto Bugs as minor enemies.
  • Although non-canon, this is the first time that Mecha Sonic and the Super Emeralds have appeared in a game in years (not counting remakes).
  • In-game, due to Sonic's inability to swim, he wears a life jacket and swims using backstroke.
  • This is his second time as a toy that can be used in games, the first time being an amiibo made for the Super Smash Bros. series.
  • One of Sonic's idle animations features him taking a nap and dreaming about his 16-bit Genesis form.
  • Another idle animation has Sonic looking at his wrist, and stamping his foot. This is a reference to the original idle animations in the original 1991 game.
  • Sonic currently has the least abilities of any year 2 level pack character.
  • Sonic is one of the only playable characters that's fast enough to run on water so far.
  • When Knuckles prepares to throw away Shadow's gun, he removes one of his gloves, revealing a smaller glove.
  • If Doctor Who is there, Sonic will say "Hey, you're THE Doctor, right? I heard you named a screwdriver after me! How cool is that?!" This is a reference to the Sonic Screwdriver the Doctor uses in his franchise.
  • When teamed up with Bart Simpson, Sonic will tell him if he sees a gold brick, that he should "just take it! Take it, take it, take it, take it! Take it!", referencing a cameo of Sonic that appeared in one episode.
