Full house for The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog and its million downloads

What started as a well-crafted little joke turned into a real phenomenon. As an April Fools' Day prank, SEGA offered us the amazing The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog for free on Steam. A small free game in which the player must solve the mystery surrounding the disappearance of our dear blue hedgehog. This very successful visual novel was warmly received by players.

So much so that The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog has already been downloaded more than a million times in just five days. Moreover, the game is ranked 61st in the list of the best-rated games on Steam. A real feat for a title that is not short of derision.
