Sonic Boom Dash

Endless running with Sonic characters

Sonic Boom Dash is an arcade endless runner for Android from SEGA. It suits players who enjoy quick reaction-based games, familiar Sonic characters, and runs built around collecting items while avoiding hazards. You choose a runner and guide them through 3D courses inspired by the Sonic Boom setting.

How the runs work

Gameplay focuses on moving through fast courses, jumping over obstacles, dodging dangers, defeating Badniks, and collecting Rings and Orbs. The game includes several playable characters, including Sonic, Tails, Amy, Knuckles, and Sticks. Each character has a different special ability, such as a ring-attracting dash, a ground slam, or Amy’s hammer attack.

Team play and progression

Team Play lets you run with up to three characters and switch between them during a race. This adds another layer to choosing the right ability for a particular section of a course. You can also collect and develop Sprites, take part in events and daily SEGA challenges, and work toward unlocking additional characters and rewards.

The game is listed in the Arcade category and has an average rating of 4.43981 from 761,557 reviews. With 100,000,000+ installs, it has a large Android player base. Its short, repeatable runs make it suitable for casual sessions, while score chasing, character abilities, special events, and tilt-based Enerbeam sections give returning players more to explore.
