Enemies include Foot Soldiers, Mousers and Roadkill Rodney among others. If a Turtle runs out of health, he is captured and the player must select another Turtle to pick up where he left off. If all four Turtles are captured, the game is over. One can recover a captured Turtle, as well as regain lost health, by winning the hidden mini-games scattered throughout each stage. The player can also recover health by finding pizza, which is located in certain locations or dropped by defeated enemies.
