Eggman is one of the two bosses that appear in Sonic Dash, and its updated port Sonic Dash+, alongside Zazz. He was added to the game in update v1.10.

Dr. Eggman can be fought in any Zone with any character (except PAC-MAN and Ms. PAC-MAN). To trigger the battle, the player has to hit a Spring with an orange screen and a black Eggman Empire symbol on it. A short while after the playable character lands on solid ground, Eggman will appear in his Egg Mobile and hover on their left, introducing himself and starting the fight.

Boss guide[]

The boss battle is divided into three phases. During the first one, Eggman will position his Egg Mobile behind the player and fire missiles from his hovercraft towards the playable character, which the player can avoid by making a well-timed jump or by moving to the sides. After firing a total of nine shots, Eggman will proceed to the second phase of the fight, in which he will fly ahead of the player, from where he will drop Bombs on the road in different formations. Like with the missiles, the player can avoid the Bombs by moving to the sides or by jumping over them. Once the player approaches a section with three Springs, Eggman will mock the player and fly away.

In the third phase, after touching the Springs, the playable character will be launched into the air, right behind Eggman. The player then has to tap the green target reticles that appear, which will make their character attack Eggman. After successfully landing three hits, Eggman will be defeated and the player will receive points. If the player misses a hit though, the doctor will escape and the player will receive a small score bonus.

Eggman will get more aggressive the more distance the player covers in a single run. The doctor will fire his missiles and Bombs at a much faster pace, giving the player less time to react. In the third phase, the green targets will move much faster, increasing the chance the player misses a hit. However, if Eggman is successfully defeated, the player will be awarded more points.

Trivia[]

• The music that plays during this boss battle is the same one that plays during the Egg Hornet boss fight in Sonic Adventure.
• Eggman, alongside Zazz, were removed in early 2020 in promotion of the Sonic the Hedgehog film, being replaced by Dr. Robotnik from the Sonic the Hedgehog film series instead. They both were added back to the game after the event was over.
