It's not my favorite Sonic game but I'll try to break it down for someone who might have that opinion.

>The presentation is very good. You're treated with the intro, the good ending, and the bad ending.
>It's the first Sonic to have CD music. Being technically trendy in 1993 was just as important as being fun to play, right?
>Rather than just going straight for the emeralds like in 1&2, time travel and differences between each era for a level were added. For someone who liked the gameplay of the genesis ones here's a new captivating feature.
>Some will argue that the level layouts are annoying and badly designed but to each their own. I tend to think it was on purpose and thus giving the player incentive to learn where stuff is. Otherwise it would have been too easy.
People like this game because it's run and jump Sonic but taken in a unique approach. This was a big deal when it came out.
