  The Story:
Maginaryworld... A world in another dimension where Sonic and his friends will embark on a new adventure. A world where dreams and reality co-exist. Maginaryworld is held together by the power of the Presioustone, a jewel created from the hopes and dreams of people in different dimensions. One day, a monster known as Void appears in Maginaryworld and shatters the power of the Precioustone. Without the power of the Precioustone, Maginaryworld is faced with the danger of unraveling at the very seams of its existence. In order to save Maginaryworld, Lumina Flowlight, the Guardian Fairy, sends out a message to other worlds in search of a hero who can help restore Maginaryworld. The message is sent out, in search of someone with courage and heart...

And Sonic and his friends receive it.

Sonic and his friends must battle not only Void, but also Eggman, who learned of the power of the Precioustone and followed Sonic into Maginaryworld. Receiving a deck of Magical Cards and Forcejewels from Lumina, Sonic and his friends embark on an adventure to restore Maginaryworld.
 
  !?!?!? DID YOU KNOW !?!?!?
... that Sonic Shuffle was origionally going to be called Sonic Square.
 
  The Gameplay:
Sonic Shuffle easily shows that it was built to be like Mario Party, with which it never could compete. Although some Mini Games were fun, the rest of Sonic Shuffle needs work.

The Mini Games are the plus of the game, though at first they don't give you all the information you need to play a Mini Game, you'll get the hang of it.

The worst feature of Sonic Shuffle is the loading time, it takes tons of time to load up anything from Mini Games, to Events. Sonic Shuffle does have good features, so if your a hardcore Sonic fan then you should pick up a copy of this.
