Sonic and his friends have banded together with leading RPG developer
BioWare (Mass Effect, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic) to create
a stylish blend of strategy and speed for Sonic’s first RPG, Sonic
Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood™. Exclusively for the Nintendo DS™,
Sonic Chronicles mixes a rich story, hand-painted visuals, fast-paced
team combat, and wireless collectible trading into a uniquely compelling
adventure.
Players will customize their party and characters, choosing from Sonic,
Tails, Amy Rose, Knuckles, Shadow, Rouge, and more, and prepare to
defeat a menacing new enemy. Rhythmically tapping and dragging with the
stylus in Sonic-style battles, players can level up and use Rings to buy
new special attacks as they progress through 20 different and
beautifully hand-drawn areas including new and classic Sonic locales.
With an engaging storyline, lightning fast attacks, high production
values, and impeccable visuals, Sonic Chronicles allows gamers to
experience Sonic in a whole new way.
Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood is a 2008 role-playing video game developed by BioWare and published by Sega for the Nintendo DS. It is a part of the Sonic the Hedgehog series, and is its only RPG entry. Sonic Chronicles initially focuses on the events surrounding the kidnapping of Knuckles and the disappearance of the Chaos Emeralds after the defeat of Doctor Eggman, before moving on to follow the cast of characters across two dimensions as they encounter a new ally, Shade the Echidna, and seek to stop the invasion of their world by Ix, the leader of Shade's tribe, the Nocturnus. The game is mainly played using the DS stylus, with players either exploring the overworld, or attacking with multiple characters in combat.
