Ren and Stimpy Show Time Warp

Ren & Stimpy 3 - Final Blight


Genre: action - beat em up

Publisher: T*HQ

Year: 1994

System: SNES


Gameplay Score: 0

Gameplay Notes:

Plays a little bit like a Final Fight-style beat-em-up in that you can move forward and back. Jump, punch, run, and a button to duck and crawl along the ground. Not sure why So basically just a simple button masher. No way to know how much health you have. Sound effects and animations play all the time so hard to tell when you've even taken damage.


Level Design Score: 0

Level Design Notes:

Encounter a Stimpy-alligator hybrid mutant within 10 seconds. He swarms to you and eats you when he gets anywhere near you. He does this 4-5 times and you're dead. That's it. After 7 tries I finally figured out how to get past him. I doubt most people have the patience to figure this out. You have to lure him to stand beside an open manhole which locks him in place so you can attack him from the other side of the hole. If you fall into the hole he stun locks you by eating you as soon as you climb out. Enemies swarm to you and have no shadows so it's next-to-impossible to tell where they are in relation to your character. Enemies pop out of the background to hit you with unavoidable attacks. No idea how to play this stupid game.


Theme Score: 2

Theme Notes:

This game looks and feels like a silly Ren & Stimpy game. Fans will like the ambiance.


Art Style Score: 2

Art Style Notes:

Massive improvement over R&S 1 or any other THQ game for that matter. Tons of excessive animation, although the animations are generally just two frames so they look horrible. The hud is huge but shows absolutely nothing of value.


Audio Score: 2

Audio Notes:

Not terrible but nothing worth raving about either. Tons of


Overall Score: 10
