This is my list of which Mortal Kombat games are fun and balanced for casual players such as myself in single-player.
Highly recommended:
Mortal Kombat (360) - Medium difficulty a few continues
Mortal Kombat 1 (PS5) - Medium difficulty a few continues
Recommended:
Mortal Kombat (Genesis) - diff 1/5
Mortal Kombat II (32X) - diff Very Easy
Mortal Kombat 4 (PSX) - 9 continues on 3/6 difficulty
Mortal Kombat X (PS4) - Medium difficulty a few continues
Mortal Kombat 11 (PS5) - Medium difficulty a few continues
The jury's out:
Mortal Kombat II (Arcade)
Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance (PS2)
Mortal Kombat: Deception (PS2)
Mortal Kombat: Armageddon (PS2)
Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe (360)
Not recommended:
Mortal Kombat 3 (PSX) - Motaro sucks on the easiest difficulty
Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 (SNES) - Motaro sucks on the easiest difficulty
