Midnight Mutants is an action-adventure game that's exclusive to the Atari 7800.
+ Game's scope is impressive with plenty of interesting areas to explore and an array of upgradeable items to hunt down.
+ Great dichotomy of initially leaving you defenceless before allowing you to power-up to battle remarkably large bosses.
+ From the opening cinematic, the presentation is top-notch and the atmosphere brilliantly evokes a campy horror vibe.
- Has a seriously irritating habit of placing you on top of an enemy when entering a new area, resulting in unfair damage.
- Respawning bats are annoying and some foes can withstand a barrage of hits, even when you have the Mega Blaster.
- Isometric viewpoint conflicts with the standard four-way controls, leading to inaccuracy when judging spatial distance.
