Sonic Jump has the most traditional story for a Sonic game out there, Robotnik steals the emeralds and you have to get them. The story is more in-depth than that, but it is a fairly accurate summary. Unfortunately in Sonic Jump 2, the Story mode is taken out, leaving you with an ending cutscene that won’t make much sense unless you have the original. Some other features that were taken away were the very nice Menu background from the original and lack of a jumping sound that the original has.
The gameplay is pretty much defined by the game’s title, you are forced to jump to your destination from floating platform to floating platform instead of running there, now don’t let that scare you away just yet, It is a lot more fun than you’d think. The controls are extremely simplistic but If you have large fingers, you won’t like using the number pad or navigation keys to control Sonic. And just like there were features that were taken out of the sequel, there have been some additions, such as a bonus level, the ability to collect Chaos Emeralds and a truly working double-jump(which is EXTREMELY handy).
The Graphics are an extreme improvement over the original. In Sonic Jump, his shoes were grey and he had no pupils, due to pallete and scaling limitations, but the problems seem to be gone in this version. Everything was beautifully redesigned in Sonic Jump 2 and the effects were really nice for a cellphone game.
As you can see, it looks pretty good for a cell phone game.
The music is probably one of my favorite parts of this game. All of the music is as perfect as MIDI can get. Due to limitations in the phone, you have an option to use sound effects only or Music only. The sound effects aren’t that great, so I’d strongly suggest the music.

Verdict: If your phone carrier has it priced less than $8 then buy it. While it is a nice game to play, it isn’t something you would play for hours on end.
