Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical Takedown

New game announced for steam https://www.pcgamer.com/games/teenag...letop-tussles/

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical Takedown is the first-ever turn-based TMNT video game. Inspired by the classic cartoon, you'll experience a bold new approach to the world of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles! Splinter and Shredder are dead, and as the Turtles approach adulthood, they're not just growing up... they're growing apart.

Battle the Foot Clan as a powerful new leader takes control in action-packed campaigns that showcase each Turtle individually. Carve through enemies in 20 constantly-mutating levels that grow, shrink, and add new threats with each turn, inspired by classic TMNT games! Rack up points for high scores while experiencing a powerful original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles story from acclaimed indie studio Strange Scaffold. This is the next step for Michelangelo, Donatello, Leonardo, and Raphael--and you can experience it with flying, slashing figurines in graphic novel-inspired splendor.

Features
20 action-packed levels, divided into campaigns focusing on individual characters.

A unique take on the world of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles from the minds at Strange Scaffold (Space Warlord Organ Trading Simulator, I Am Your Beast).

Innovative turn-based beat-em-up combat, complete with mutating arenas.

Gorgeous graphic novel-inspired art style, with paint splatter, figurines, and diorama setpieces.

Customizable movesets to shape each Turtles' playstyle

Thumping multi-genre soundtrack from award-winning composer RJ Lake (Unbeatable, El Paso, Elsewhere).

What are they talking about? Wasn't TMNT: Legends from like 10 years ago a turn-based video game? And I'm not even sure THAT was the first one.

I just saw a preview for it on youtube. It kind of looks like a tactical rpg like Final Fantasy Tactics or Fire Emblem. I hope that it eventually comes out for the Switch.

Is the TMNT license worth like $5 nowadays?
It seems everyone and their mom is making new figure lines and video games, not to mention all types of merchandise from companies I'd never heard of.

Losely based on the years leading up to the events of Once Upon a Time Machine?

Looks like this is getting a Switch and XBOX release next week. Might have to check this out. I feel like this will definitely show up Thursday on the Indie World showcase for Nintendo.

I am stoked about this news. I can't believe how many Ninja Turtles games we have been getting. Now I have to decide if I want to go Digital or wait for a physical.

So has anybody played this yet? I bought it the day it came out, but I haven't touched it yet because I am deeply into Tears of the Kingdom. I hope it's good.

I saw the game advertised as part of the trailers before the 35th anniversary theatrical re-release.

So this game is decent. I think it deserves points for creativity because I have not played a tactical game quite like this one. There are some cool unique ideas here. However, the music was pretty terrible to me, and the story was lackluster. However, the actual game was kind of fun. It only took me a couple of hours to beat it. I like how towards the end of each level, the enemies come in so strong that you are basically just trying to survive until the level ends which you never know when it does. I think that 10 bucks would have been a better price. I highly recommend playing this one.

I've been wanting to try this out, but I'm shocked they've been so hesitant to put this on sale. Maybe it's just me, but $20 feels steep for a game of this style, license fees being what they are and whatnot. Splintered Fate offers WAY more variety, and that's always on sale.
