Excerpt from Genesis Game Guide by The Scribe

NAME:             Time Killers
AUTHOR/VENDOR:    Incredible Technologies/Black Pearl Software/T*HQ
RELEASED:         1993
TYPE:             Fighting
LANGUAGE:         English

PREMISE:          Throughout time, Death has tried to overcome his enemy,
                  Life....  After centuries of plotting his ultimate
                  revenge, Death has taken these heroic warriors from the
                  entire span of humanity's past, present and future, and
                  pitted them in a ferocious battle in which there can be
                  only one winner.  Now these great champions stand frozen
                  in time, ready to do battle in the ultimate contest of
                  fighting skill - against Death himself - for lasting
                  immortality.  All the action of the original arcade hit
                  from Strata! (box promo)

IMPRESSIONS:      Action yes, but asthetics?  No.  This is a horrid-looking
                  fighter that somehow manages some nice touches of black
                  humor.  Laden with jerky animation and ragged gameplay.
                  Its style reminds me of that old Epyx classic Barbarian,
                  so far as it goes.

Pimp Daddy Has F'n Spoken:

Man, I remember this from the arcades, my friends and I used to line up to play this shit cuz at the time it was so cool, and we needed something a little different from playing Mortal Kombat religiously.

Maybe the graphics aren't as advanced, especially not compared to the original arcade version...

But there's just a 'coolness' about it that can't be viewed by screenshots or explained in a review, you'd have to play it for yourself.

Some may agree with me about this, others may not, but all I knew is, you've got a league of cool characters, you can pull off some really hot combos that result in dismemberment of arms, legs, heads, you name it.

Throughout a fight, I can slice off my opponents arm and he's still good to go, but with 1 less arm through-out the rest of the battle.

This game looks Mortal Kombat look like a walk through the park in regards to the gore factor, but in a more cartoonish time of way.

I'm trying to get my hands on a copy of this as we speak, and probably after this review you are too, hahaaa
