Marvel: Ultimate Alliance

Marvel: Ultimate Alliance on Game Boy Advance is a version of its own of Activision's superhero game (2006). It is not a conversion of Raven Software's console versions: Barking Lizards Technologies developed it independently with their Whiptail engine, and it differs significantly from them.

How It Plays

It is a 2D side-scrolling beat 'em up with minor RPG elements, such as the ability to alter the characters' stats. The graphics are simplified for the handheld and the character roster is smaller than on consoles.

• Teams of three plus a striker: you form a team of three characters and have a non-playable fourth one, the striker, who can be summoned to perform a powerful attack against on-screen enemies.

• Roster: 10 playable characters and 6 strikers.

• Extra modes: S.H.I.E.L.D. Simulator, Time Challenges, Scavenger Hunts and a Survival mode.

• Reception: according to Wikipedia, it was the game's most poorly received version.
