Mortal Kombat is a 1992 Arcade title that was also ported to the Sega Game Gear (1993).
+ Supports two-player competitive battle and the fatalities are satisfying to work out due to them not being listed in the manual.
- Kano isn't available as a playable character, and there's only two stages which makes the combat feel repetitive.
- The pit death fatality is entirely absent, which is a major feature of the Arcade game that gave it its gory edge.
- Frame-rate is shocking and the controls are unresponsive, meaning that executing attacks and fatalities is often pot-luck.
- Collision detection is dreadful and your character will regularly make contact with an opponent to no effect.
- Music is incredibly repetitive and the wimpy sound effects don't provide you with the necessary tactile feedback.
