The levels are huge now. While they were pretty big before, they were basically straight forward. Not anymore.
This cart isn't about depth, it's all about flash and energy, and I mean that in a good way. [May 2003, p.40]

The 2nd one is amazing with better levels, better bosses, more characters, more variety, more addicting, and more entertaining and combine those and you get a great game.

May not present significant advances beyond his GBA debut, but it's a solid action title with great game play and lots of secrets. [Mar 2003, p.137]
People looking for a good side-scrolling game will enjoy it and Sonic fans everywhere will be delighted at another chance to return to the old-school roots that made Sonic so great back in the day.
Lacking in serious challenge, Sonic 2 does feature decent level design, imaginative graphics, and impressive velocity. [May 2003, p.94]
What it doesn't have is originality or depth, making this sequel more subsonic than supersonic.
Sonic Advance 2 is better than Sonic Advance in every way!Positive: Better Music, better graphics, a lot faster than before since you go really fast, A great new character, super fun zones fun but challenging bosses , The fact that you have to unlock characters, a story plot, Awsome tricks , new moves, more ways to do a level and more! Negative: Very hard and annoying ro get special rings for special stages, A few bad acts and no choa garden. Overall this game is a must get for all gba owners or emulator owners.

Attempts a new format of gameplay surrounding a new mechanic called "boost mode". Visuals, music and character animations are a sizable step up. Unfortunately, the gameplay is a slight step down due mainly to the Gameboy Advance's limitations. This was the fastest game in the series at the time though the Gameboy Advance's screen is too small for the player to see much coming. Despite this, the levels don't take advantage of this oversight too often for it to ruin the game entirely. As a matter of fact, the new boost mode mechanic makes this one of the most influential and important games in the series as it would pave the road follow up games would follow. The bosses are the best of the Advance series with three exceptions: Aero Egg, Egg-Go-Round, and Eggrobo Z. Special Stages are the worst in the series especially since the Chaos Emeralds are not longer shared among characters. Would recommend primarily for its influence on nearly every game in the series going forward.

More hedgehog-based, speedy, colourful and not-quite-as-good-as-Mario platforming fun.

Ever wanted to play Sonic Forces in 2d with the last 3 levels entirely consisting of beginners traps. Well here you go.

A god-awful excuse for a sequel with no substance. Sonic Advance 2 takes the first game, and throws out any of the good parts and invites some of the worse parts in. "Hold right to win" has never applied more than here, this one is a miserable waste. Skip it.
