The gameplay feels fresh and-without denying-has a certain appeal to it. And that certainly adds to the atmosphere of a Marvel superhero game. And no, I’m not saying the character sprites couldn’t be sharper-god damn it, do you even antialias, Data East? But, and it is but with a capital B, the background graphics look like an actual comic book printed on paper. Sure, the texts in menus and cutscenes do look like they came straight out of some ‘el Cheapo’ indie game. Although the Game Gear version of the game received only mixed reviews, because of its below-mediocre visuals and audio (and I reckon other ports didn’t do any better), the original arcade game is all but a mix of crappy sprites and even crapier music. Now, Aliens vs Predator aside, I’m not much of a brawler fan. Note however, that it also prevents you from selecting another character, since the game gives you that option only when you die (and the timeout appears). This way (if you’re a noob like me and die a lot) you can skip the ‘Continue?’ timeout counter that normally flashes out on the screen once your health drops to zero. If the coin-counter value is greater or equal to ‘1’, the game even let’s you restore your health by hitting the start button mid-play. Just hit the coin-bay button and keep playing. And fortunately, it won’t cost you a penny anymore (even though your ego may still get hurt nevertheless). I mean, it’s nothing really brutal on ‘normal’ difficulty setting, but unless you’re a real pro, you will die. The point is to get your money, and in order for the arcade to get your money you have to die. Seems simple enough, right? Well-not so surprisingly-the reality is somewhat different from the expectation. The characters move in a side-scrolling isometric scene, they can jump and use both melee and ranged attacks (see controls chart below), and the goal is to pass all stages by eliminating all the nemies the game throws at you. The game features a classic single-player mode and two player MP, with four available characters to choose from: the eponymous Captain America and three of the Avengers, namely Vision, Iron Man and the Hawkey. Now, that’s something that must be stopped! And just who’s gonna to do that? You guess three times. The evil Red Skull has gathered an army of super-villains and plans to take over the world.
