(Don't worry, they just look tough!)Īt the beginning of each game, you get to choose between us four turtles (pick me! pick me!) and our respective weapons: Leonardo with his swords, Donatello and his bo stick, Raphael with his sais, and yours truly with his nunchuks! In addition to your weapon, you also get an unlimited supply of ninja throwing stars! (Rad!) (And like I didn't even use a calculator to figure that out!) At the end of each stage is one of Shredder's main goons, who's really tough to squash. The game has five really rad stages with three levels per stage.so that's like 15 different levels in all. Konami's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is an awesome game that lets you take each one of your four favorite turtles on an adventure to rescue our friend April who has been kidnapped by that gnarly Shredder dude.
A fun rental, especially if played with a friend. That said, the game's levels are good-looking and varied, and its cut-scenes should please fans of the cartoon.
And if you fail to defeat a boss, expect to replay the entire hour-long stage in order to try again. eschew traditional patterns of alternating attack and vulnerability-they're all offense, all the time. Worse, the game's bosses are completely merciless. To prevent this, practical players will rely heavily upon the three-button combo that hits multiple foes, rarely using the Turtles' other moves. Swarming foes will keep you paralyzed as they pummel you into turtle soup. The Turtles thump and slice their way through hundreds of Foot ninjas, street thugs, robots, and mutant lizard-men before saving the world in a totally tubular fashion. Like their most popular game, the 1991 coin-op, this is a straightforward beat-em-up. The quartet of former quadrupeds returns to videogamedom, sportin' a sweet art style lifted from the hit new animated series.
