Not sure what Midway was thinking when they released this game. Admittedly, the hype was kind of high considering this was the first non-fighting Mortal Kombat game so the curiosity alone generated hype among fans and most Nintendo 64 owners craving for more games to be released on the system.

Calling this one of the worst games of its time it's not an over-exaggeration; the controls are terrible with specific buttons to change the direction you are facing, as well as nearly impossible to control platforming segments that made the game incredibly frustrating and unfair.

I still scratch my head to this day as to how a game of such high profile gaming series got approved and passed internal QA/QC process.
