Captain America and the Avengers is a faithful port of the arcade game by Data East. It stars Captain America, Iron Man, Hawkeye, and Vision. Its somewhat unique combat puts a strong emphasis on projectiles.
CAPTAIN AMERICA - Picked for the experimental 'Super Soldier' project during World War 2. Trained to become a one-man army. A combat expert, his special skill is his shield-throwing ability.
IRON MAN - President of Stark Industries, he is an inventor of new weapons. His power comes from his steel suit of armor. With his armor he can travel under water or into space.
VISION - An artificial being with great knowledge of biology and engineering. His power comes from light gathered by the gem in his forehead. He uses this light energy to fire his solar beam.
HAWKEYE - Hawkeye received his training under Captain America. He is also a naturally skilled marksman with any thrown or aimed weapon. He has superhuman power of sight and is skilled in the bow and arrow.
The Genesis version of this game is almost identical, except it has for more voice-acted dialogue.
The Sentinel boss that appears at the end of the first shooter section is originally from X-Men.

Captain America is a competent yet mediocre brawler. It's combat is alright, but enemies don't get stunned so much as they become invincible so it's awkward. The sound and graphics are well below average. The sprites are disappointingly small and bland, and the music is catchy yet hokey.
