    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan is, at the very least, a serviceable co-op brawler infused with plenty of fun nods for longtime TMNT fans. However, its high price-point, lack of couch co-op, and repetitive gameplay are hard to ignore, making it a game which is best bought at a drastically reduced price.

    Fighting, moving, and pulling off cooperative attacks as the Turtles is enjoyable, but it’s difficult to find fun in the world and routine in which they exist.

    Completed in under 5 hours, with sloppy gameplay and no challenge whatsoever, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan looks more like a merchandising product for the movie than a real thought-out game.

    The first 15 minutes looked promising with an interesting combat system sealed by the Platinum Games experience, the rest of the game is half cooked with random, repetitive and boring elements that leaves this new Turtle’s adventure as a game that you will not have to play.

    A disappointing experience. Confounds the simple things with the annoying mechanics. Far away from the great games of the turtles and the excellence of the Japanese developers. Platinum Games are human too.

    The end result is a cluttered mess that constantly tries to keep you active with something, anything at random, in order to distract you from the poor design.

    The developers veer beyond the cartoonish nature of the TMNT television series and straight into the absurd.

    This is the TMNT game we've been waiting for. Each Turtle feels different Mikey's fast but doesn't hit as hard as the others for example.This is the TMNT game we've been waiting for. Each Turtle feels different Mikey's fast but doesn't hit as hard as the others for example. Traversing the levels is a blast grinding on rails and using a parachute like shell to glide ,climbing buildings swinging around poles etc. It's obvious a lot of love when into this game each characters dialogue fits them perfectly. The Boss fights have some hidden surprises and takes a bit of thought to take each of them down dodging at the right time etc. Not going to say there the most strategic boss encounters but fun none the less
    Don't believe the it's only 3-4 hours, The only way you're clearing this game that fast if your playing on easy and rushing through it. My friends and I spent over 2 hours alone completing the first level on the hardest difficulty.
    The game does not offer couch co-op( online multi-player only which sucks for anyone looking to play at home with friends /family
    For me personally that wasn't a big issue but I agree it should've had it.

    Este juego esta muy por debajo del nivel que suele ofrecer platinum pero a pesar de ello su espíritu se nota. Este titulo no vale los 60€ queEste juego esta muy por debajo del nivel que suele ofrecer platinum pero a pesar de ello su espíritu se nota. Este titulo no vale los 60€ que valió de salida en su momento pero por los 10€ que lo he adquirido recomiendo darle una oportunidad si eres fan de platinum o de las tortugas, yo me lo he pasado bien con el y tengo ganas de rejugarlo en máxima dificultad.

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan
    Turtles in a half-baked game
    Mutants in Manhattan in an open worldish beat em up staring the ninja turtles…
    At first I was really impressed with this game..
    You can climb up any and every wall.. You can use your shell to float across the Manhattan sky...
    You can find charms to boost health and skills...
    Spend points on new moves and freely level up these special moves as well as customize the 4 turtles specials in any way you please…
    You can also freely switch through the 4 turtles at any time…
    Unfortunately, after level 1 of 9, you’ve practically seen it all…
    Every stage has its own boss…
    To get to a boss you have to complete random tasks that pop up in these pretty dull open levels…
    There is really nothing more to it than randomly take out these bad guys.. Protect this item... pick up that item and take it there... defuse the bombs... rinse and repeat for every level
    There is no redeemable qualities in the gameplay…
    Not even 4 player online co-op can save it, as it’s the same thing but with friends…
    it’s flat out boring and monotonous…
    Just wait for a call… go to the spot the activity is taking place... collect some green orbs for combat boosts, weapons, or health…
    And do this until you’re told to go to the boss’s layer...
    The boss fights are appreciated… it’s nice to see such a variety of characters... but only a couple feel different than the rest…
    But all 9 really come down to just spamming attacks until their 5 life meters drain…
    Which brings me to the trophies and achievements...
    There are a handful that require certain shots during the brief second snap shots are taken after a boss is defeated…
    these trophies are near impossible and I can’t see anyone getting any joy out of hunting for this games platinum…
    The best part of this game is hands down the cut scenes..
    At the very least they exist...
    But the story and humor is poorly written…
    Just your predictable beat all the bad guys then beat the baddest of the bad guys, the end.
    I give Teenage mutant ninja turtles: Mutants in Manhattan
    a 5/10
