Overview
The strength of nostalgia and (perhaps) many, many pieces of New York pizza inspire Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge. Among the most adored Super Nintendo games of all time, Turtles in Time was released in 1992, right so when Heroes in a Half-Shell were at the height of it’s fame.
The fact that Shredder’s Revenge is virtually a sequel 30 years in the making shows how much the beat ’em up experts at Tribute Games adore both that game and the Turtles of the late ‘eighties and early ’90s. It faithfully recreates the elements that made Turtles in Time such a beloved brawler while also adding a few novel concepts to modernize the vintage 16-bit gameplay.

A lot of new features and several quality-of-life enhancements are also added in Shredder’s Revenge.

You no longer need to give up health to use these attacks; instead, a charge metre builds up as damage is dealt. If there is a break in the game, you can also taunt to load up the metre, which causes Michelangelo to perform an instant dance while Donatello takes out and plays a Game Boy. In addition to the apparent gaming advantages, these moments provide character.

Levels Of Game
However, the majority of the stages are wonderful, being both interesting and packed with humorous features. You chase Bebop through the Channel 6 News studio in the first level, for example. The Foot Clan’s inability to fit in with the surroundings is the subject of one of Shredder’s Revenge’s running jokes. They may be seen working on computers, mixing cake batter on the kitchen set, and coming out of an industrial freezer with chilled hams that are now useful projectile weapons as you go about the TV studio. A different level has you fighting your way through a mall wherein Foot troops are eating burgers and fries at the food court and playing video games in the arcade.
Final Comments
Whether or not you retry levels with different characters or on harder difficulties will determine whether you can get additional play from out Shredder’s Revenge. Despite its briefness, this is nonetheless a fantastic labour of love that honours the history of Turtles in Time and the brawlers that came before it. While new elements assist modernise the action without diluting its 16-bit charm, combat is fast-paced and simple yet gratifying.
