Green Hill Zone's loop-de-loops and tropical scenery make for one of the most iconic stages in Sonic The Hedgehog. Sonic Mania's version of GHZ adds new complications and complexity that's turned it into one of the game's most hotly contested speedrun courses.

Sonic Mania released on PC yesterday, bringing its colourful levels to even more players. However, many of them were inconvenienced by protection software that prevented them from playing offline. Sega has responded to concerns and fixed the issue following outcry from players.

Sonic Mania is a celebration, a digitised block party of blistering speeds and bright worlds. Sega's decision to hand their famous mascot over to fan creators and artists has paid massive dividends, creating a game that is not just a welcome return to form but a raucous, delightful experience.
