Sonic's Schoolhouse -- Oh man,
we almost got away scot-free, too. Gameworld is really just a
bunch of mini-games and Music Maker is a music game. They
weren't so bad. This is the real three-R's,
Barney-generation, you're-gonna-LEARN-something-from-this
contingency in the Sonicverse. Oh well, at least you know what to
get your idiot little brother for Christmas...

Story -- It's a day at
school...Sonic style! We've been through all of this already.
Apparently if kids are to learn, you have to insult their
intelligence. I've had my intelligence insulted all my life, and
just look how I turned out...

Gameplay Info -- Everyone's
favorite blue hedgehog puts a zing and a twist on the standard "day
at school" routine, in a 3D virtual schoolhouse environment. The
object is developing skills in the three R's as kids earn gumballs
for a Sonic pass, the ticket to a cool field trip adventure.
(Whatever that is.) Kids start by entering any one of four
classrooms, then checking out the problems on the blackboards and
hunting down the answers. Each correct answer earns a gumball, and a
series of correct answers opens the door to other classrooms. (But
keep an eye on that bully Robotnik, who'll try to steal your
gumballs!)
Unusual to an edutainment title is the 2-player
split-screen mode. Gameplay (for lack of a better word) is
identical, only your opponent may also try to steal the gumballs
you've earned (and vice versa). It's hard to imagine why on earth
kids would try to earn gumballs from correct answers when they could
just sit around trying to steal them from their opponent...

- They didn't list Schoolhouse in the Sonic Jam Hall of
Fame. Go figure.
