History YMMV / Somari

* ThatOneLevel: Labyrinth Zone. Water hampers your movement speed even more than in ''Sonic 1'', which, combined with the rough controls already present in the game, make this zone a nightmare.

** The Crabmeats, originally [[TheGoomba a very pathetic enemy]], are also made the bane of your existence in this game. They move much faster and constantly shoot out of their claws at random intervals, with only a very brief telegraphing of their attack, and they're smaller enough that they're much harder to land a hit on. Combine this with your limited view of whats ahead, sloppy level design and wonky physics, plus the games habit of throwing the crustaceans into your path at every opportunity, and you're forced to move the game at a snails pace just to avoid bumping into them.

* PortingDisaster: While Hummer Team did a pretty impressive job on bringing Sonic's gameplay into 8-bit, that job is not impressive enough to not hurt the gameplay. (although it's arguably better than ''Jurassic Boy 2'' by Sachen)

* ThatOneBoss: If you thought Final Zone was hard in the original game, this hack manages to make it even harder by introducing some nasty FakeDifficulty. Robotnik's crushers move much faster now, which can not only blindside you, but makes it so that you can't telegraph which crusher you can attack him in, basically turning the fight into a LuckBasedMission where you can just hope you wind up in a spot you can hit him in. And if that wasn't bad enough, the electric sparks he shoots out can now ''change direction'' if you move past them, making them extremely hard to dodge. All this with no rings, and you're in for one nightmare of a fight.

* SoBadItsGood: It's a very wonky 8 bit port of Sega's flagship game with hair pulling difficulty tweaks, but it's worth playing at least once for sheer novelty value.

** The buzz bombers in Green Hill Zone have turned into this. They will snipe at you at point-blank range with almost no warning.

* PortingDisaster: Despite Hummer Team doing a pretty impressive job on bringing Sonic's gameplay into eight bits, that job is not impressive enough to not hurt the gameplay. (although it's definitely better than ''Jurassic Boy 2'' by Sachen)

* SensoryAbuse: Depending on your opinion, the soundtrack is either vaguely passable or DarthWiki/SoBadItsHorrible.
