Welcome back my fellow gamers and TMNT fans! In this special Prototype interview hosted by our very own Jaime “JJ” Johnston we are talking with Toronto based developers Swappz Interactive about a new TMNT video game that’ll hit store shelves ANY moment now. Jaime sits down with Andrew Kamondy and James Stewart to talk a new competitor into the mobile gaming world…TMNT: Mutant rumble! We learn about some of the cool tech which allow you to scan in collectable figures to unlock some characters in the game but also look cool in your desk and so much more. Does this game have the shell to compete with games like Skylanders and Disney Infinity? Well to be fair…the Turtles do have nunchucks and swords and a giant rat and what do the other guys have?
