Sonic and the Black Knight won't blow you away, nor is it bringing Sonic back to his glory days. Thanks to the inclusion of some unwanted sword gameplay, the usual Sonic gameplay is pretty much thrown out the window. The controls aren't that great, and can be a bit frustrating to work with at times. While the overall presentation is great, it doesn't really help out on how troublesome the gameplay is.
If you're a fan of Sonic's recent titles, then this will certainly satisfy you. Nintendo Now would recommend to at least give the game a try in order to see if it's something you're able to tolerate. They did have some fun with the game, but those hoping to play a Sonic game that's reminiscent of the old times won't find that in the Black Knight.

Actually I am in my 20's and have gone back and played many of the Sonic games made, personally I find a lot of the older games to be absolutely awful with a particular nod to the original Sonic the Hedgehog. I know a good game when I play it and the games on my list and ones that are truly great and the pinnacle of the Sonic experience.
Well. I guess an opinion is an opinion.
But just because you can't make it through a game doesn't make it bad.
"Classic sonic for life!"
and sorry...I just can't let the "absolutely awful with a particular nod to the original sonic the hedgehog" slide

For me it would be.
1. Sonic Adventure
2. Sonic 2
3. Sonic and Knuckles
4. Sonic 3
5. Sonic the Hedgehog 1991
That's pretty much my list, only I'd put S&K and Sonic 3 at 1 and 2. And maybe drop Adventure for Sonic Chaos for GameGear/Master System, I had so much fun with that game.

Being a Sonic fan for a majority of my life, I’ve played nearly every Sonic game that’s ever existed. As such, I’ve played each game so many times that I’ve even began collecting them as of recently. Doing so, I’ve had the opportunity to play games I haven’t even looked at in several years.
I’ve never been big on the classic Sonic games, or really anything before 1999 when Sonic Adventure for the SEGA Dreamcast was released, so don’t expect to see anything before then in my list. To celebrate Sonic the Hedgehog’s 24th anniversary, here are my top 10 favorite Sonic games of all time.
