Review
A distinctly humorous action game, Battletoads pits two giant amphibians, Zitz and Rash, against the Evil Dark Queen. Aided by the vultureish Professor T-Bird, the duo launches an all-out assault to rescue their pal Pimple. The game's 12 levels are huge, gorgeously rendered and full of surprises. Besides beating up on foes, the 'toads contend with other challenges like climbing ropes and racing jet bikes. Character animation is fluid, and the controls are smooth and responsive. With Battletoads, Rare combines a great sense of humor (especially in the two-player mode) with a surprisingly good storyline and near-perfect gameplay.
