Tails Adventure, also known as Tails Adventures, is a Metroidvania game in the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise. It was released for the Sega Game Gear in 1995. It is one of three spinoff games that Tails received, the other two being Tails' Skypatrol, which was also on the Game Gear, and Tails and the Music Maker, which was for the Sega Edutainment System, the Sega Pico.While taking a nap outside his house, Tails is woken by an explosion, and finds the surrounding forest ablaze. The Battle Kukku Army has invaded the island in order to find the Chaos Emeralds, and it's up to Tails — aided by a veritable laundry list of gadgets and inventions he can obtain along the way — to retrieve the gems first and send the belligerent birds packing.This title is different from other games in the Sonic series in that the emphasis is on exploration, visiting and revisiting different stages in a similar vein to Clash at Demonhead, and making use of all kinds of different items that can be found (and made) to access new areas and solve puzzles within them. Also, unlike previous titles, Tails actually reaps benefits from collecting just one Chaos Emerald — namely, an increase in HP and Flight stamina — and collecting all six gives him the maximum 99 Rings and a 15-second Flight Timer.The Japanese manual says this game takes place on Cocoa Island before Tails first met Sonic, while the Western manual says it takes place after Sonic and Tails' last adventure and Tails is on vacation on Tails Island. In recent years though, elements of the two different backstories have a tendency to overlap.It has a comic book tie-in in Sonic Universe, though it took a few liberties with the plot (such as it is). The Battle Kukku Army, referred to as the Battle Bird Armada, has since taken on a role as one of the major villain groups in Archie's Sonic series.Not to be confused with Sonic Adventure (although the game is an unlockable bonus in the GameCube re-release). | |

Early Game Hell | |
| Tails Adventure (Video Game) / int_1527d90d | comment |
Early Game Hell: Tails' default speed is as slow as molasses in January, has a weak (non-attacking) jump, low health and can only fly for a few seconds, and his bomb attack is slow and weak and suffers from erratic hit detection. The game gets significantly easier as you acquire more power-ups. | |

Power-Up Letdown | |
| Tails Adventure (Video Game) / int_18683fc2 | comment |
Power Up Letdown: The Speed Shoes, which can be acquired in Poloy Forest as soon as you have the Remote Robot. While it does increase Tails' default walking speed, it has to be equipped as a separate ability, meaning Tails can't even attack while using it, and its momentum only carries into your jumps while holding down the run button beforehand, not from a standstill. On top of that, the method of using it is rather counter-intuitive; you have to tap the action button twice while moving to activate it. | |

| Tails Adventure (Video Game) / int_1c3d047e | comment |
The Rival: Speedy (Grand Battle Kukku XVI), who Tails has to outmanoeuvre early in the game. Speedy returns as the penultimate boss of the game — equipped with mechanical arm extensions that let him fire off electrical and fiery bursts — and the first opponent in a double-boss fight to end the game. | |

| Tails Adventure (Video Game) / int_31a2a33c | comment |
Stuff Blowing Up: Tails uses bombs that he can throw or drop as his main weapons, and has several variations, such as the Regular Bombnote The very first item you start off with. Explodes on contact to blow up enemies and basic barriers., Large Bomb,note One big bomb that has a set detonation time, but can destroy reinforced barriers and wipe out all on-screen enemies. Napalm Bomb,note Explodes into flames and can burn through long grass and flying enemies easily. Remote Bombnote Slides along the ground until it stops, and can enter narrow gaps and be detonated at any time by pressing the button again. and Triple Bomb.note Stronger version of the Regular Bomb that has a wider blast radius. | |

Mad Bomber: Grand Battle Kukku XV, the final boss of the game. His main form of attack — besides a close-range one where he grabs and shakes Tails by the neck before throwing him — is to throw dozens upon dozens of bombs from every which way. | |

| Tails Adventure (Video Game) / int_3f0310d6 | comment |
Magikarp Power: Tails starts off the game incredibly weak — only being able to walk, jump, push objects, throw basic bombs and briefly fly, all with very low health — but gets increasingly stronger as he picks up more Chaos Emeralds and assorted gadgets and weapons, to the point where the game gets easier as it goes on. | |

Ability Required to Proceed | |
| Tails Adventure (Video Game) / int_3f2503af | comment |
Ability Required to Proceed: Tails can only do five things on his own; walk, jump a short height, fly for a few seconds, grab ledges and throw bombs, and none of these alone will get you through most of the game's roadblocks. For example, in order to get past Volcanic Tunnel, you need to get the Remote Bomb item (and if your inventory is already full, you have to backtrack to Tails' house to add it to your inventory), and in order to get that, you need to have the Remote Robot first (and learn how to properly use it). Tails' moveset in general considerably expands as you go further through the game. | |

| Tails Adventure (Video Game) / int_66c725b6 | comment |
Inconsistent Spelling: In the Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut summary, Cocoa Island and Great Battle Kukku were properly translated, but they were respectively mistranslated as "Kokko Island" and "Great Badoru Kukku" in the Sonic Gems Collection manual. Also, Kukku Island is similarly known as Coco Island when the game is set to English - which may mean that it was supposed to be "Cuckoo". | |

Dub-Induced Plot Hole | |
| Tails Adventure (Video Game) / int_6a9475c1 | comment |
Dub Induced Plothole: A lot of the supposed oddities in the gameplay pointed out by reviewers stem from this. Tails' inability to spin attack (unless he's using the Sonic item) and run fast are explained by the game being a prequel to Sonic 2 in Japan, meaning that he hadn't met Sonic and learned to mimic his abilities yet. Then again, there's items based off of Sonic, Knuckles and Fang, who Tails isn't supposed to have met yet. This was Lost in Translation, as the localization set the game after previous games. In addition, since the previous games' localizations left out Tails' status as a Gadgeteer Genius, the game's heavy focus on gadgets and machines in this game would have felt pretty random at the time. | |

Joke Item | |
| Tails Adventure (Video Game) / int_8af721f7 | comment |
Joke Item: The Radio. All it does is change the current level's soundtrack. The Super Glove. Its sole function is letting you pick up rocks or springs. At most, it's a mild timesaver that just wastes valuable inventory space. The Knuckles. Punching enemies just like the red echidna sure sounds good, but it's got a pitifully low range, isn't any more powerful than Tails' usual bombs and robs you of the ability to attack in mid-air. It mostly just serves to put you in danger, especially if you're not carrying any other weapon. | |

Hitbox Dissonance | |
| Tails Adventure (Video Game) / int_a5e998f0 | comment |
Hitbox Dissonance: The enemies have much smaller hitboxes than their sprites, making it rather aggravating to hit them with the regular Bombs at times. Napalm Bombs, hornets, and hornet hives behave strangely together. Napalm Bombs will damage both of these things (including the big one that appears from destroying the hive) as long as they occupy the same vertical space. Even if it the sprite passes well under them, it'll damage them for no apparent reason. | |

Convection, Schmonvection: Used in the Poloy Forest level. The entire forest has been set ablaze, but Tails strolls right through it without so much as breaking a sweat or running into a lick of the flames. The chicken-legged flamethrower mecha at the end of the level is another story. | |

Heart Container: The six Chaos Emeraldsnote Green, Red, Blue, Purple, Yellow and White function as these, with them each increasing Tails' Life Meter by 10 Rings each time until he obtains the last one, which boosts it up all the way to the maximum 99 Rings. They also increase his flight timer by about 3 seconds each, maxing out at 15 seconds. | |

Adaptational Wimp | |
| Tails Adventure (Video Game) / int_d500b978 | comment |
Adaptational Wimp: To fit in with the slower paced gameplay, Tails' default flight ability and speed are extremely nerfed compared to how he plays in the standard Sonic games. While the Chaos Emeralds do beef up his flight considerably, the Sonic item doesn't make him move as fast. This is averted in the Japanese version, in which the story takes place before Tails met Sonic, so it makes sense that he's not very fast nor knows the Spin Dash yet. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
| Tails Adventure (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: The game has a longer-than-usual length for a Game Gear game due to its slower pace and Metroidvania nature, so a Password Save is included. The newest password is also entered ahead of time for you if you get a Game Over and want to continue immediately. Items are kept permanently upon collecting. Even if you die right after getting it, it'll be saved to the newest password and you won't have to waste time backtracking to retrieve it. The Remote Robot has the ability to be teleported back to Tails at any time to save time on backtracking. Tails is also functionally invincible while using it, to prevent respawning enemies from getting cheap shots in. Certain items like the Chaos Emeralds act as permanent upgrades upon collecting, meaning you don't have to waste precious inventory space equipping them. Due to the small area of view, the screen lowers or rises when Tails crouches or looks up, respectively, to give a better view of offscreen obstacles ahead of time. | |

Gaiden Game | |
| Tails Adventure (Video Game) / int_dbd8e795 | comment |
Gaiden Game: A spinoff that features Tails as the main protagonist. Furthermore, this is one of the very few games in the series where both Sonic and Dr. Robotnik are completely absent. The Western backstory mentions Sonic in passing, but the Japanese backstory justifies this due to the game being a prequel that takes place before Tails met Sonic. There is an item in the game called Sonic with his face on it which lets do you a Spin Dash-like move, and he's also mentioned briefly in the manual bio (below) for the Speed Boots, but that's it. | |

Oddball in the Series: A Sonic game that not only isn't centered around running and spinning, but is a slow-paced, exploration-based Metroidvania sandwiched in instead of a linear arcade-like platformer. To say the least, it's a drastic change of pace for the series. | |

Sprint Shoes: The Speed Boots — found in Poloy Forest — do exactly what you'd expect them to. By equipping them and holding down the Action Button, Tails runs faster and can go up steep inclines more easily, but cannot attack while doing so. By tapping Jump twice while running, Tails can also fly at a faster speed. | |
