Sonic Wings Reunion is a sequel to Sonic Wings, which I haven’t played, but it’s a shoot-em-up with a zillion bullets flying all over the place, and usually, right at me!
I do like a shoot-em-up, but there’s only 8 stages, though. Is this meant to be such a short game? I guess the replayability is in playing as the different characters (not that that changes the gameplay), as well as trying the different levels of difficulty and seeing if you can get through with zero continues?
Well, I think I only managed that last bit on one occasion.
Abu Dhabi was the only level with a challenge, because the main baddie just blasted me constantly until I somehow managed to get past him! However, when I get a ton of bullets flowing at me, I don’t find that fun, because it’s almost impossible to evade them.
As an aside, I did find after the end credits, Sonic Wings Reunion did continue with Stage 8, 9, etc… but just repeating the levels already seen, even if there did seem to be slight differencee in one of the main baddies.
Sonic Wings Reunion is fun for a brief time, but how on Earth is this £50 on Steam?! Who’s paying that for less than an hour of shoot-em-up? It’s also £48 on PS5, but £33 on Nintendo Switch. However, as per the links below, you can currently get the Limited Aero Edition for both consoles at £60, so not much more than PS5 and Steam!
