Captain America and the Avengers
A side-scrolling
beat'em up (punctuated with occasional
shoot'em up sections) in which one or more players take on the
role of either Captain America, Iron Man, Vision, or Hawkeye as they
prepare to do battle with Red Skull and his henchmen. Each player
character has a different weapon or power that can be used throughout
the game to assist them in combat. Captain America uses his shield,
Iron Man uses his repulsor rays, Vision uses his solar beam and Hawkeye
uses his bow and arrows. There are also additional superheroes such as
Quicksilver, Sub-Mariner, Wonder Man, and The Wasp who appear at
certain points in the game to assist the player characters. Some of the
super-villian foes that await the heroes are Klaw, The Living Laser,
Whirlwind, The Grim Reaper, The Wizard, The Controllers, The Mandarin,
The Juggernaut (from X-MEN), Ultron and Crossbones. The game consists
of five stages.
