Beat the game. First level was the underwater as Wolverine and I had a hard time. He barely got out of it with only a little health remaining. Since health is not restored for free I decided to be The Hulk in the ice level; surely that strength and mass will offset icy conditions. He owned the level and wrecked the boss coming out at full health. I next did Spider Man in the jungle figuring he would benefit from lots of trees and he did well. Iron Man went to Dr Doom's lab as I figured technology would beat technology. He was much harder to play and I actually had to learn his combos. He did seem well suited to the level. Next the spaceship as Captain America and I found him similar to Iron Man.

I did the rest of the game as Spiderman with the power gem and he wrecked everything. He has speed, low to the ground to avoid attacks, cheap attacks, good anti air, ranged paralysis and climbing. I mostly used normal attacks and found the paralysis difficult to perform. Never did any move advanced moves.

Overall decent game but could have been a lot better. It was fun but felt like the heroes lacked many of their powers, like Wolverine's regeneration. It is about on par with X men Mutant Apocalypse.
