'''''Sonic and the Secret Rings''''' is a 2007 platform video game developed by Sonic Team and published by Sega for the [[Wii]]. It is a spin-off of the ''Sonic the Hedgehog'' series, the first title in the franchise for the system, and follows Sonic the Hedgehog's quest to stop an evil genie named the Erazor Djinn. In addition to the basic platforming gameplay seen in previous ''Sonic'' titles, ''Secret Rings'' uses a system of experience points and levels, as well as special moves that are unlocked via leveling up.
