The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers is a unique take on the popular franchise, featuring full-motion video (FMV) with real footage from nine different episodes of the TV show. The gameplay is based on classic arcade-style timing-based challenges, where players must press buttons at the correct moment to avoid taking damage or falling into traps.
The game requires players to pay close attention to the action on screen, as failure to press a button in time will result in continued playback of the footage, but also lead to loss of lives. As the player's lives dwindle, the game becomes increasingly difficult, ultimately leading to a game over if all lives are lost.
