This is a game you need to play in your life if you are a gamer. Besides the fact that it has muscular toads who fight, it really was one of the most unique gaming experiences you will have, especially for Nintendo. You might think it is a beat'em up, or got stuck on the third level, you know the one, where you had to move your floating car up and down to avoid the walls that pop up. But if you kept playing you would see that every level is different. Completely. Each level had a different gameplay mechanic, a rarity (and yes that is an awesome pun), as games tended to change the levels and bad guys but never the game.
I will go through a few of them to show you. Yes, the first level is a regular, thought fun, beat-em up where your foot turned into a big boot when you finished a combo. When you beat that level you had to repel down a shaft where you can kick off the wall and fight birds. Then the third level, which did have some beat'em up, had the flying cars, a level that any gamer who played them probably remembers. Beyond that there is a level where you need to outrun a mouse to an explosive. A level where you need to jump from snake to snake before they enter a portal and a level where you need to climb a tower to fight the last leader. It really was an impressive range for one game and each level still felt like Battletoads.
It took me some time, but after a friend got me a copy of it for Nintendo (which still worked) I made it my mission to beat it. It was a glorious night when it happened, I should have taken a picture :p.
Where you one of the lucky people who played this game?
