Teenage Muntant Ninja Turtles review - Nintendo Gameboy

The Turtles are back in town! The evil Foot Clan has been up to its usual nasty tricks, and only Donatello, Michaelangelo, Leonardo and Raphael have the skills to stop them and rescue poor April.

Starting in the streets of New York City, the player selects one of the Turtles to begin the search for the missing reporter. He then travels from left to right across the landscape, using his weapon to slash foes wherever they appear. Button B controls the jump, and each amphibian can somersault as well.

The action soon switches to the sewers, where the Heroes feel even more at home. Strange bird-like creatures attack and only the bravest of Turtles can hope to fight through and rescue his main squeeze!

What the Mean Machines staff thought

It's really hard to believe that another good Turtles game has been released, but Nintendo once again rise above the hype to give us a great slash 'em up. Foot Clan avoids the problems of the Gameboy by making the sprites large and well-defined, and the gameplay is fun even if a little repetitive after a while. One for Turtle fans everywhere!

This has got everything a turtle fan could ask for - great graphics, excellent sound and loads and loads of action! The game is thoroughly enjoyable, and offers plenty of challenge - even the most seasoned beat 'em up fans will find the going tough! If you're into the heroes with half shells, put this at the top of your shopping list.
