Being from the UK, the name ‘Rita' never ever rather sat ideal with us for Power Rangers. It sounds excessive like Rita from down the chip store, who may ask if you desire salt and vinegar with that; or Rita from round the corner, who might or might not be a juvenile overdue using entirely excessive makeup.

Power Rangers: Rita's Rewind is a brand name brand-new belt-scrolling beat 'em up from Digital Eclipse, a designer much better understood for their retro remasters and collections in the type of Atari 50 and the current Tetris Forever. Based upon the initial '90s version of the program– a Japanese-American co-production that mish-mashed Japan's Super Sentai action scenes with US-filmed stars– Power Rangers is a sensible prospect to sign up with the 2D scrolling beat-'em-up renaissance.

The story itself hearkens back to the program's genesis, with Rita having actually constructed a time module that carries her back to 1993. The initial cast are then tossed into a time paradox problem where 2 Rita's are all at once creating chaos in their timeline.
