Tails in Sonic the Hedgehog
About the Game
Tails in Sonic the Hedgehog is a fan-made game of the original Sonic the Hedgehog for the Sega Genesis. The hack replaces Sonic with Tails, allowing you to play through the classic adventure as Sonic's famous two-tailed companion. Since Tails did not appear in the original 1991 release, this project gives fans a chance to experience Green Hill Zone and the rest of Sonic's first adventure from a different perspective.
The game keeps the original levels, enemies, bosses, and story intact. The main change is the playable character.

โจ How Tails Differs
In the original Sonic the Hedgehog, Tails was not yet part of the series. He first appeared in Sonic the Hedgehog 2.
This game edits the game so Tails becomes the playable character. Depending on the version of the hack, his abilities may match Sonic's movement exactly. Some versions also include limited flying abilities, while others keep the original Sonic mechanics.
Because multiple releases exist, features may vary slightly between versions.
