Story and Setting: Dr. Eggman’s Toybox Chaos

Sonic Rumble unfolds in a twisted toy world crafted by Dr. Eggman, who traps Sonic and friends as playthings in obstacle-filled arenas. Players control toy versions of Sonic characters (Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Shadow, Dr. Eggman, and more) in Jumanji-style challenges—race, survive, and collect Rings to escape Eggman’s clutches. Iconic Sonic tunes and vibrant stages (e.g., Green Hill-inspired obstacle courses) immerse you in high-speed mayhem.
