Play as the turtles as you fight Shredder and his minions from the TV and comic series. Iconic villains such as Rocksteady, Leatherhead and Shredder all appear as boss battles. A game unique to the Genesis but is based on the TMNT arcade game. This version has a different story, and fewer but longer levels than the SNES Turtles in Time.

8It's not the deepest beat'em up and it does get repetitive but it is a fun game that works great in multiplayer. Why is Bebop not in the game?
