Sonic Rush (also known as ソニック・ラッシュ, Sonikku Rasshu in Japan) is a super-fast platformer video game. It was made by Sonic Team and released by Sega for the Nintendo DS in 2005. This game is part of the exciting Sonic the Hedgehog series.

In Sonic Rush, you get to play as two cool characters: the speedy Sonic the Hedgehog and the fiery Blaze the Cat. The game looks like a classic 2D adventure, but the characters are actually 3D. This mix makes the game look like a cool style called 2.5D! A sequel to this game, called Sonic Rush Adventure, came out in 2007.
