Sonic Darts (ソニックダーツ[5] Sonikku Dātsu?) is a mobile phone game released as part of the Sonic Cafe service offered by Sega. An updated version of the game was later released with enhanced graphics, which was also available in the United States and Europe through Sega Mobile, though slightly altered.[6] It was later made available in Japan through the Puyo Puyo! Sega service as well.[7]

Gameplay[]

In Sonic Darts, the player controls Sonic the Hedgehog in a standard game of darts against Shadow. The game can be played either against a computer or another person by passing the mobile phone around.

Soundtrack[]

The background music of Sonic Darts is a remix of a previously unused track from the cancelled 1992 arcade game, SegaSonic Bros.. The track in particular is the one used for levels 20-29 and 70-79.[9][10] Slightly different remixes are used in the different versions of the game, although it is unknown what the backing track of the original version sounded like as no footage exists online.
