Gameplay

The gameplay is similar in form to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series developed by Konami. Each character can attack, jump, and pick up and throw certain items such as bricks or barrels. In addition, each hero has his own special attack and the ability to block certain types of attacks. Most opponents that meet on the way, as a rule, die from just a few hits. At the end of each level (in some cases - in the middle) there is a meeting with bosses, who offer more serious resistance. Among the bosses in the game there are such characters as Chloe, Living Laser, Whirlwind, Sorcerer Supreme, Grim Reaper, Juggernaut, Mandarin, Ultron, Crossbones and Red Skull. The rest of the Avengers, such as Wasp, Quicksilver, Wonder Man, and Namor, perform only cameo roles.
