Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge

If you have any nostalgia for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles as they existed in their ‘80s heyday, Shredder’s Revenge is a pitch perfect encapsulation of the vibes of the pizza-eating ninja reptiles all wrapped around a really solid beat-em-up. You can play as any one of the turtles, each of whom play very distinctly from each other to reflect their weapons and fighting styles, but some side characters like April and Master Splinter are also on the roster. It’s a rather short game to beat on your first run, but it’s pretty replayable, and has cooperative play, which gives you a reason to go back into it with friends. It’s a perfect game to try on Game Pass if you might be hesitant to buy it outright.

A Good Match For: Those with a lot of love for classic TMNT or just want to see some really slick sprite work in motion.

Not A Good Match For: Those who hate the titular turtles.

Rough Average Playtime: 2.5 Hours
