Metamorphic Force Arcade Game Review - MAMECADE 54

Game Play

An ancient evil has arisen from the past. Now the four shapeshifters known as the Metamorphic Force have been summoned by the Goddess. One to four players cooperate through side-scrolling beat-em-up levels. A very cool gothic soundtrack with great special effects highlight this game. There are lots of great characters and the gameplay resembles Konami's other arcade hits such as X-Men, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Crime Fighters. A character similar to the trolls in Golden Axe walks randomly through the game. Kick him to receive power-ups and goodies. The boss characters also have quite a lot of voice.
