"Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Arcade: Wrath of the Mutants is almost an insult to side-scrolling beat &s;em ups. Worst of all, despite this being a budget release, it costs more than the fantastic Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder&s;s Revenge from …"

"Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Arcade: Wrath of the Mutants provides simple beat &s;em up entertainment that can be kind of fun for a couchful of chums. However, its middling nature certainly leaves a lot to be desired. 🍕"

"If you find yourself itching for some more Turtle beat-em up content after exhausting everything from Shredder’s Revenge and the Cowabunga Collection, Wrath of the Mutants provides a brief serving that’s simply more flashy and less fun."

"Ultimately, Wrath of the Mutants can&s;t compete with Shredder&s;s Revenge or the better Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles games out there. Still, thanks to its smooth controls, shallow-but-satisfying brawling, and diverse settings, it&s;s a competent beat-&s;em-up."
