Fantastic Four 1997

Developed by Probe Entertainment

  • Hack and slash/Beat 'em up, Action

The Fantastic Four video game, released in 1997 for the PlayStation, is a beat 'em-up action game based on the Marvel Comics superhero team. Developed by Probe Entertainment and published by Acclaim Entertainment, the game features playable characters Mr. Fantastic, The Invisible Woman, The Human Torch, The Thing, and She-Hulk, each with unique abilities. A version for the Sega Saturn was planned but ultimately cancelled. Players engage in combat, solve puzzles, and navigate obstacles across various levels, drawing from the rich lore of the Fantastic Four comics. Doctor Doom has developed a device that transports the Fantastic Four to various locations to battle various monsters and supervillains. Mr. Fantastic assembles a time machine that allows him to transport the team to Doom's tiny kingdom for a final battle. While Galactus does not appear in the game, it is clear that he is behind the destruction of the Skrull homeworld.

Answered from what people have written, never made up: a verdict, how much when it's a matter of degree, and the sentences that say so, quoted with their names. Reviews here first, then TMDB's reviews and the title's Wikipedia plot and reception. If nothing settles it, you can put it to the curators.
