===Tabletop role playing game===
In 1985, [[Palladium Books]] published ''[[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles & Other Strangeness]]''.<ref>{{Cite book|title=Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles & Other Strangeness|first1=Erick|last1=Wujcik|date=1988|publisher=Palladium Books|last2=Laird|first2=Peter|last3=Eastman|first3=Kevin|isbn=0916211142|edition=Revised|oclc=20101871}}</ref> It is a standalone game, but uses the many key mechanics from Palladium's [[Megaversal system]] and is compatible with material from other Palladium games. It introduced rules for creating anthropomorphic animal mutants. Examples of mutants are included in the appendices as potential antagonists, including the Terror Bears, Caesars Weasels, and Sparrow Eagles, as well as including stats for the Turtles and other characters. A series of supplements were released over the next few years, which remained in print until, due to the cost of maintaining the license, Palladium decided to end its license with Mirage Studios in January 2000.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Siembieda |first=K. |author-link=Kevin Siembieda |date=January 2000 |editor-last=Smith |editor-first=W |title=Good-Bye, Ninja Turtles |journal=The Rifter |location=[[Taylor, Michigan|Taylor, MI]] |publisher=[[Palladium Books]] |issue=9 |pages=7–8 |isbn=978-1-57457-037-3}}</ref>
