It's like a platformer combined with speed. unlike some of the modern sonic games, sonic mania is a balanced comination of speed and platforming (Unlike the visual novel that is sonic forces, where you just hold 1 button that makes you boost). It has a story and some cutscenes, and the soundtrack is just amazing. there are 3 characters to choose from: sonic (the main character, of course), tails (Sonic's trusty sidekick) and knuckles (& knuckles). You can also play as sonic and tails in one game: you will be playing as sonic, and tails will be tagging along. each character plays almost the same, except for the fact that each character has his own unique ability. also, another fact to take in note is that knuckles in not as fast as sonic, and he doesn't jump as high. because of that, knuckles has his own paths in most of the levels, and he even has his own unique stage, track, and 2 unique boss fights.

I think I got too carried away :P

Also, don't worry: not all sonic fans are like that gang of 10-year olds (Well, I am not like that :) )
