[edit] Gameplay
The gameplay in TMNT features many acrobatic segments in the vein of another Ubisoft game series, Prince of Persia. Ubisoft has stated the focus within the game is "on the four turtle brothers finding out their differences and getting through family problems." They also have said that TMNT features "mostly Single-Player campaigns for each brother."[2]
This game is told by all four turtles and Master Splinter, following the plot of the movie. It starts off with Leonardo in South America, then goes to Michaelangelo in New York, then to Raphael in New York as well and ends with Donatello in the sewers. Finally it tells the story of how all the turtles band together to fight evil once again.
[edit] Reception
Critical reception of the games has been mediocre at best, with IGN giving a score of 5.5. The Game Boy Advance version, however, has been highly praised by both the press and gamers for its 2-D sidescrolling presentation which is reminiscent of older arcade and NES games.
