In the Nintendo 3DS version of Sonic Lost World, the words "Game Over" immediately appear and the screen slowly darkens. If the player presses, the game goes back to the Title Screen, leaving any unsaved data lost. Pressing here subsequently restores the player's life counter up to nine lives, and the player returns to the World Map (if the player has not finished Windy Hill Zone 1 yet, however, that Zone is replayed). The Game Over screen of the Wii U/ PC version of Sonic Lost World is heavily reminiscent of the Continue screen from the original Sonic the Hedgehog. In games like Sonic Forces and Sonic Frontiers, the playable character is sent back to the last Star Post they passed regardless of how many lives they lose. Instead, the games will make the player start the level again from the beginning instead of at the last passed Star Post. Sonic Adventure 2, Sonic Heroes, and Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) are some games in the series which do not feature a Game Over screen.
While very rare at first, Sonic games are increasingly abandoning the Game Over along with the life feature, with the player being instead given infinite lives in those titles or the option to disable them.
In several games, such as Sonic Adventure, Shadow the Hedgehog and Sonic Generations, if the player gets to the Game Over menu, the game asks to continue playing or return to the title screen or menu section of the game. In the SegaSonic the Hedgehog arcade game, when the player gets a Game Over, they have to insert more coins into the cabinet within ten seconds to continue or get a Game Over. With the introduction of the save feature in Sonic the Hedgehog CD and Sonic 3 & Knuckles however, the player would instead be forced back to the first Act of the Zone where they got a Game Over. To compensate, they can also use a Continue to continue playing. In earlier Sonic games, due to the lack of a save feature, getting a Game Over makes the player restart their progress from the very beginning, generally from the title screen or the menu section. The Game Over screen, from Sonic the Hedgehog 2.
