Inspired by the March 2007 CGI film, TMNT takes the fearsome foursome through a series of acrobatic battles amidst the dark and gritty streets, sewers, subways, and rooftops of New York City. The Game Boy Advance version features a side-scrolling perspective as players punch, kick, and pummel thugs in classic Double Dragon-style action. Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello, and Michelangelo all feature distinct abilities, with players able to swipe weapons such as baseball bats or swords from foes, toss items such as trash cans, and perform similar on-the-fly moves to help clear each screen of enemies and advance to the next stage.
