Histoire

Professor Xavier and his Uncanny X-Men are the last line of defence against Magneto and his henchmen's rampage. The team, comprising Wolverine, Cyclops, Storm, Colossus, Iceman, and Nightcrawler, is prepared to confront Magneto.

Résumé

The Uncanny X-Men is an overhead-view action game. Players commence by selecting two X-Men from the roster, with the second controlled by another player or the computer. They then choose one of five levels, including a practice level. The objective in each level is to reach the concealed 'command centre' and demolish it. All X-Men share similar abilities, allowing movement in any direction, jumping, and attacking. Half of the characters (Storm, Iceman, Cyclops) possess long-range attacks, while the other half (Wolverine, Nightcrawler, Colossus) need to engage enemies in close combat. Each X-Man can endure a specific number of hits before being defeated. If both X-Men fall in battle, players can select two more to attempt the level again until all X-Men are used.

Power-ups include an "S" that stops time, temporary invincibility, and a health restore. Additionally, a Magnet power-down (symbolizing Magneto) temporarily immobilizes the X-Men.
