Sonic 2 = Spin Dash introduced.
Sonic Adventure = 3d Sonic with the iconic soundtrack.
Sonic Mania = Decades of Sega not making anything of note, to the point fans had to come and restore the feeling.

Honorable mention to Sonic and Knuckles.
Sonic 3.
And Sonic-CD

I went the whole first page with only one mention of Sonic Mania and that’s insane to me. It’s literally a perfect Sonic game. For me it’s. Sonic Mania, Sonic 2, Sonic 3 and Knuckles.

I don't have a distinctive third choice, but Mania and 2 are definitely on my list
