The " Blue Spheres" minigame from Sonic 3 & Knuckles is also included, along with an all new version called New Blue Spheres, which added additional sphere types from Sonic Mania (2017). New modes include a boss rush mode a mirror mode that reverses the level layouts and a mission mode featuring 60 additional standalone challenges, such as collecting a target number of rings within a time limit or reaching the goal without destroying any enemies. When played through this mode, the games are in chronological story order, meaning that CD is played in between 1 and 2, rather than after. A "story mode" allows players to play through the four games sequentially in anniversary mode, with new animated cutscenes that bridge their stories, which are also seen when launching for the first time or clearing each game in either mode, respectively. Both modes use the Retro Engine version of each game, aside of the emulation of the original game in classic mode. Origins features two versions of each game: "classic mode" is the original format, presented in 4:3, while "anniversary mode" features support for widescreen displays, replaces lives with coins, and allows Sonic to use the "drop dash" from Sonic Mania. Unlike the originals, the player can control Tails and Knuckles in most games. They traverse side-scrolling levels at high speeds while collecting rings, defeating enemies and bosses, and finding secrets. The player controls Sonic the Hedgehog, Miles "Tails" Prower, and Knuckles the Echidna as they attempt to stop Doctor Eggman from stealing the Chaos Emeralds.
