Back in my day, we had to literally make our own Sonic board games. I ended up making a lap-based game based off of Sonic R where up to 4 players simultaneously compete to reach 1st place. It never got past the board design, but I think if I worked on it more it would’ve features power-up monitors and alternative pathways for each player character’s unique abilities.
Have you played Sonic Battle Racers?
"back in my day" 🧓
There actually was an original Sonic board game by Milton Bradley, which I did have as a kid. Though it was based off the original Sonic game.
I absolutely love the Sonic Roll art by Tracy Yardley and I'd definitely find this to play
2:32 As far as board games with unlockables, there’s a subgenre called “legacy games,” where aspects of the game change across play sessions through things like adding stickers to the board, destroying cards, etc. Those games often have sealed compartments like this one that you open when certain conditions are met.
I still have a copy of Risk Legacy that has unopened pouches 😅
Chaos Confetti comes to mind.
Nick seriously you have an uncanny ability to make any topic interesting, you got me into TMNT, Klonoa, and now you’re making me interested in tabletop gaming
great video as always
Sonic when he rolls or something idk isn’t out yet

For those curious: many tabletop games do have a solo player mode and unlockables, just not the overly casual ones (Monopoly, Uno, Ticket to Ride)
If anyone wants to try something beginner friendly I'd recommend Pandemic (which has a legacy version where previous games carry over) or Charterstone, where you play a group of settlers in a new land building a kingdom. The playing map starts empty but you start filling it up with buildings (in the shape of stickers) as you progress in the campaign. By the end of the game you can even scratch out/void rules if you desire. Its a pretty interesting experience.
There's one solo board game I just bought called Hornet Leader where you command a squadron of navy fighter jets and it's a fantastic solo board game.

To be fair Nick, neither do the characters (nor the writers) know how to play the game either.
I play yugioh, and I don't know how to play yugioh.
Hey same! @@skylerwoods7392

Join the club my friend.
This game is *excellent*.
Edit: You have to reroll every time you spend a die, unless it's a blue die, so in your example, you can't spend that 6 and the 5 without rolling again.
Definitely want to see you guys do a stream/youtube edit of it

Sneaky sleight of hand.
Someone should take this to Vegas and do a Casino Night Zone theme.

Game Apologist table top TLDRs are a great vibe! Thanks for sharing!
from a dnd fan and sonic fan this is one of the best things ever
But can the Carbuncle eat itself?
Bravo
Nice reference 😂
No, because the Carbuncle is not in Sonic Roll.
Funny coincidences that I start hearing about this game and go to search for a video on it only to find this one within an hour of its upload. Great look at the game and while it gives me similar vibes to another dice game based on a video game (the Cuphead dice game specifically) I can see the appeal and am curious about picking it up!
Saw this video the day it came out and immediately bought it. It came in last night! Super excited!
Labyrinths & Launch Bases.
Heh. I understood that reference
I used to roll the dice.
I hope that there is a advance/rush era version of this for more player characters. I just want a cream character card.
Sonic: GO DICE ROLL
Edit: 0:54 HA!
Huh I wonder who that handsome guy in the flannel is.
I like your funny words, green man
did you go to the speed cafe to show off playing it? that's actually so goated LOL
I LOVE YOUR VIDS
Esthetics are on point and game looks like fun. Hope you can get some people to play with ya.

CLASSIC
I am now convinced that the naming process behind Sonic projects for years now has just been make a list of words the fit the idea, choose a word, and slap it behind Sonic. Think I'm joking?
Sonic Shuffle
Sonic Heroes
Sonic Rush
Sonic Riders
Sonic Unleashed
Sonic Colors
Sonic Generations
Sonic Frontiers
Sonic Roll
Sonic Boom
Sonic Prime
Sonic X
Note: this isn't an attack on the franchise(I myself am a fan of it) it's just a funny detail that's kinda obvious lol
Cool video, but this just gave me a random thought. Remember those Luigi casino minigames from Super Mario 64 DS and New Super Mario Bros? What if there was official casino minigames in a Sonic game where Sonic could play poker or speed or something? I'd literally pay extra for that.
Cant wait to see people making homebrew character cards for their OCs
Time to roll the dice
Thank you Nick for convincing me to buy this lmao
I own a copy of Risk that has unlockables. My brothers used to blast through that game.
good job, GA, you got me to buy this game.
While its not sonic board game related, I do remember making a few games with Legos when I was younger. One of which was a board game where i believe you had to navigate the board to collect as many green balls as you could (don't ask) and the player with the most wins. Essentially Mario party, but at the time i wasn't privy on Mario party's existence yet. One if my fonder memories.
Considering this company made a similar Mega Man game, I wouldn't be surprised if the dice colors are blue, red, and yellow just because that's what they were in that game. this looks fun and cool. Definitely gonna get a copy of it.
This is where I admit having played in a DND conversion of shadow the hedgehog the game... And yes it was as chaotic as you imagine
Sonic D&D styled TTRPG when?
AYEEEE THATS ME!!
These rules are so complicated, if only they made a video game out of this
I'll presume the cover at 2:40 hides The Doomsday.
I need this
Funny enough, this game makes a decent starter pack for my Sonic TTRPG. My game uses handfuls of d6s and d10s, and having multiple colors helps separate out dice pools for different players. This would work for 3 players +1 GM!
YOOOOOOOO I JUST BOUGHT THIS AND NEEDED SOMEONE TO TELL ME THE DIRECTOONS WOOOOOO
Solo tabletop games are actually more common than you might realize. I got exposed to them with my favorite tabletop game, Power Rangers Heroes of the Grid.
When I saw the thumbnail I thought this was going to be a slot machine gambling game💀💀💀
Of course Sonic Rolls. He can become a sphere by curling up
Hm, interesting, i wonder how well it has done?
Also, perhaps you should try out the Tag Force Game Series, it was how i finally learned to play Yu-Gi-Oh! at least.
Cool game, can't wait for it to get digitized.
now im just thinking of how a sonic tabletop RPG would work
I wonder where this fits into the cannon
Before Sonic: The Card Game but after Sonic the Hedgehog: Crash Course
if you want another Sonic table top game
may I suggest Monopoly Gamer, Sonic the Hedgehog edition
Seems very intimidating

I want Sonic Roll

Hi game apologist whens the next sonic apeed reading?
Board game apologist 2nd channel when???
I want it so bad
Can someone link me to cube sonic at 1:05?
11:35 sonic runners reference???
antes tô see the different zones
That first look at the tabletop layout was so confusing looking to me. A lot to take in.
Think I'll stick to Sonic pinball.
Why do I have a feeling alot of people will buy this for the sole purpose of collecting it instead of playing it, or it could just be that I have no friends and still want it.
i have no interest in actually playing this but i deeply want to own it for myself
Mood
Watch this board game have implemented momentum better than sonic team has in the past 10 years
WHERE, S MECHA MARCH MADDNESS !
Somnic early copy 🗿
Congrats on getting this early!

The adventure review was coming in 2035.
Or 2095
My brain hurts trying to understand how this game is played. 😂
On your turn, roll dice.
Then try placing dice in the stage if it matches. Get to the end of a stage. Fight the boss. Get them emeralds. Win!

why is this sonic game so complicated
Roll is a Megaman character.
We also made a Megaman game 👀
sonic dnd
Funny you should mention that ...
Roll for anicative
Funny you should mention a tabletop RPG...
So is this another “not as hard to learn as it looks” game, where the rulebook is overdone and more complicated than necessary? This is typical in board gaming.
Dude.........................
There's bits in the comments.......................
Cool video!?
This looks cool however my adhd brain doesnt want to learn it lol.
