History VideoGame / SonicShuffle

* ButThouMust: If you're not aware of Sonic's special move at all times (playing the same number on consecutive turns doubles the amount of spaces you can move), you can overshoot where you're trying to go, since with the double-move you ''must'' move the required double amount of spaces. This problem is all the more baffling because Big has a similar special move, only he CAN stop anywhere within the double-move.

* TheComputerIsACheatingBastard: Regardless of the difficulty, they seem to hit exactly the right numbers and steal your best cards. Even when every player has a full deck, and they have the exact card they need, they'll steal it from you anyway in a manner that almost seems to suggest the AI has achieved sentience and is apparently a massive JerkAss. Good luck trying to find one you need from their deck because [[MyRulesAreNotYourRules you can't see their cards]]. They're also very good in Mini-Games, even luck-based ones, and are almost flawless in Mini-Events. Plus, they have a higher chance at blocking the effects of Force Jewels. It's to the extent that a player will need to [[SaveScumming save-scum]] to complete the one-player mode.

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: One of Amy's unlockable photos is of her mid-flip, with her panties in full view. The caption says "Amy shows off her Hammer Jump! (Hey! Stop taking pictures!)"

* AttackOfThe50FootWhatever: The mini-game Gargantua has Eggman turning one character giant. Your defense? [[ImprobableWeaponUser Pop guns.]]

** The ''one'' dumb thing AI players will constantly do is pick Eggman cards at critical moments.

* SodaCanShakeup: The "Sonicola" mini-game involves Dr. Eggman shaking up a can of soda and hiding it a vending machine, then hiding behind a bush when Sonic and friends come to it. There are four players, but five cans of soda, meaning either one player will be unlucky enough to take the shaken can and get squirted by it, or all four players will get non-shaken cans and Eggman's plan will be foiled.

* BackFromTheDead: Gamma, who was brought back "by the strange power of the dreams of Maginaryworld".

* ThePhoenix: [[spoiler:The Fire Bird turns out to be one]].

* AlliterativeTitle: '''S'''onic '''S'''huffle

* EvilIsPetty: Eggman has no real reason to be in Maginaryworld and doesn't appear in-story, but he messes with Sonic and friends on the boards and in minigames anyway. One of his evil schemes? "Sonicola", in which he shakes a can of soda and jams it into a vending machine. As LetsPlay/{{pokecapn}} and crew find out, ''[[http://youtu.be/uJJI2tcQR4o?t=10m27s it is possible for this to fail.]]'' He also appears in several Mini-Events (if he does, it usually means he will rob your Ring count.)

* {{Expy}}: Lumina, for the Sega character VideoGame/{{NiGHTS|IntoDreams}}. And Void for Reala, from the same series.

* EasterEgg: Playing on Christmas Eve will replace Lumina with VideoGame/{{NiGHTS|IntoDreams}}, and playing on AprilFoolsDay will replace her with Reala.

* HolidayMode: Playing on Christmas Eve will replace Lumina with [[VideoGame/NightsIntoDreams NiGHTS]], and playing on April Fool's Day will replace her with Reala.

* AnvilOnHead: Eggman's punishment to the player furthest from the Precioustone.

* LethalJokeCharacter: Two unlockable characters, [[spoiler:Big the Cat and Chao]], have special moves that, while not overly powerful, can be quite useful. [[spoiler:Big's]] special move lets him roll a 6 and stop anywhere within the number, which is useful for precise movement, and [[spoiler:Chao]] has a battle ability that stops it from taking damage during an enemy's turn and losing a turn as a result.

* OutOfCharacterMoment: Amy's line after they arrive in Maginary World: "Forget about Sonic! Just look at my clothes!"

* EvilIsPetty: Eggman has no real reason to be in Maginaryworld and doesn't appear in-story, but he messes with Sonic and friends on the boards and in minigames anyway.

* NintendoHard: The crocodile escape minigame is almost impossible to do with human hands.

** PressXToNotDie: The mini-game 'Over the Rainbow' was this.
* RandomEvent: 'Accident' mini games. Mini Events are randomized, too, as are the Force Jewels you collect.
