Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric (Sega for the Wii U) is an awesome game! The goal is to defeat the villain, Lyric, a gigantic snake with a cyborg body who’s trying to create a world of robots and twisted metal.

You play with the main heroes: Sonic the Hedgehog, who is superfast and uses his homing attack to destroy enemies and uses his spin attack to get through obstacles and enemies.

Tails the Fox uses a projectile attack and can hover when you need to get across long spaces. Knuckles the Echidna uses his super strength to annihilate his enemies and can climb on walls when you need to get places. Lastly, Amy Rose, a pink hedgehog, who’s very strong, uses a hammer to bash her enemies and can triple jump to high places. The heroes can use energy beams, which allow them to swing throughout the map.

With everything at their disposal, they have to get the eight Chaos Crystals and prevent Lyric from using them. Team Sonic has to fight robots with swords and lasers and also has to deal with the evil Dr. Ivo “Eggman” Robotnik and his evil robotic creation Metal Sonic.
