The question is how big a per cent do you really need to get hooked when you're shifting such crazy quantities?Įurogamer contributor Rich Stanton found Sonic Dash to be a moderately enjoyable, if ultimately forgetable sojourn in Sonic's return to relevance. Of course it never really breaks down that way, as some folks never touch it and others get really invested. That sounds impressive until you factor in how many people played it and realise the average time spent with the game was only 1.23 hours, so basically about 74 minutes per person. In the following infographic boasting about its impressive figures, Sega noted that Sonic Dash has been played 123m hours, which it likened to 140 centuries. Of course, Sonic Dash is free-to-play and it's unclear how many folks actually spent any real coin on this mobile mini-game. Heck, even the Wii U's combined software sales across all games has only come to 56.7m. Given its mad popularity, it's hard to judge Nintendo too harshly for branching into mobile when even its heaviest hitter on Wii U, Mario Kart 8, only managed about 5.1m in sales worldwide as of 31st March 2015. The mobile offshoot was first released on iOS in March 2013, then followed suit on Android in November 2013 and Windows Phone in December 2014.ĭeveloped by Sega's mobile studio Hardlight, Sonic Dash was created by a team of only 15 people over the course of eight months.
