Released: 1992
Toxic Crusaders is a side-scrolling beat-em-up that's based on the 1991 cartoon of the same name.
+ Avoiding damage allows you to upgrade your mop so it unleashes projectiles, which is a nice reward for skilled play.+ Includes a password system to continue your game, and there's some neat graphical touches, cut-scene artwork and music.
- Gameplay is mind-numbing, as you'll face the same handful of enemy sprites while having barely any moves to defeat them.
- Swarming and relentless enemy A.I. is brutal, and it doesn't help that the collision detection is utterly atrocious.
- For some bizarre reason, your strongest attack uses the Select button, which is uncomfortable and unwieldy.
- Level 4's skateboarding section is ill-advised, as it removes your projectile weapon if you're fully powered-up.
- Boss battles are unimaginative and their basic, repetitive patterns make for some truly boring fights.
