Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants Unleashed falls short of expectations. What was anticipated to be a basic 3D beat ’em up turned out to be a 14-hour light RPG with repetitive levels and a lack of enemy variety. The game’s graphics mirror the hand-drawn appearance of the Mutant Mayhem film, but the limited enemy types and reused levels make it monotonous. While the combat is serviceable, the enemies lack intelligence, and the game heavily restricts exploration. The fixed camera sometimes obscures the player’s view, and the platforming sections suffer due to the awkward angles. Moreover, the game feels primarily designed for single-player, with limited support for multiplayer gameplay. The lack of enemy variety and repetitive side missions contribute to the overall sense of monotony in the game. Additionally, the time progression system and conversational component add depth to the story, but the pacing of the dialogue in cutscenes hampers the flow of the game. Overall, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants Unleashed has potential with its RPG elements and tie-ins to the Mutant Mayhem film, but it suffers from repetitive gameplay, limited enemy variety, and pacing issues in the dialogue.
