Sonic the Hedgehog’s murder might have looked like an April Fool’s joke. But nothing could be further from the truth and, although its launch was on April 1st and its approach might make us suspicious, the Sega of America game has earned a place among the highest rated games on Steam. .
Unsurprisingly, it has over eleven thousand positive reviews, which puts it in the position 61 of the best qualifiers on the Valve platform.
Sonic the Hedgehog’s murder goes from record to record
As revealed by the company’s social media manager, The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog surpasses one million downloads in just five days since its release. An impressive achievement for a game that departs from the typical Sonic game formula and presents us with a mystery to be solved in a point-and-click mystery adventure. Yes, its free nature may have helped achieve those record numbers, but at least it speaks very well about this type of proposition.
Over a million of you have grabbed The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog and it’s currently the #61 highest rated game on Steam EVER.
