Sonic Blast, known as G Sonic (Ｇソニック) in Japan, is a platforming game for the Sega Game Gear and Sega Master System that was released in November 1996. A similarly titled game, Sonic 3D Blast, was released in the same month for Sega's Genesis and Saturn consoles, though the games had different gameplay, plot, and a separate development team. In this game, you can play as Sonic or Knuckles as they go off to stop Dr. Robotnik from collecting the Chaos Emeralds again.
