I like this game a lot, but I really think it could have improved. The enemies are relatively easy to kill. The bosses are a bit harder, but the overall difficulty isn't too high. You probably won't find yourself going back to this title very often. I reccomend it mostly to big fans of the X-Men. The graphics are nice and powers are depicted well, but Activision should have upped the difficulty and maybe included some puzzle solving features. The game isn't totally lacking though, you can play as Wolverine, Storm, Gambit, Iceman, or Cyclops and work with either anytime. You do have to use their powers to get past some obstacles so you could say it does have a small ammount of puzzle solving. For a little bit of replay value, you can go through the game playing only the bosses. I like the way the developers made the levels a side scroller and then made the boss battles more of a Street Fighter like play. All in all, its a fair game and would be good for those younger X-Fans and X-Crazed people. Be sure to pick up the X-Men Movie DVD along with this game!

I concur with the other reviewers. This game is pretty fun and I like the characters. I've been using it on the GameBoy Advance and it is pretty nice.

This game is very fun to play. It has lots of levels and each character has there own special moves. It has a boss at the end of each level which is cool also. If you like X-men or action, get this game!

Activision has a dubious track record for making great and near excellent Spider-Man games and making poor and lacking X-Men games. Why this is is anyone's guess, and X-Men: Mutant Wars for the GameBoy Color is one of these types of games featuring everyone's favorite merry band of mutants. In this 2-D side scroller you get to pick from Wolverine, Storm, Cyclops, Iceman, and Gambit as you take out hordes of generic baddies and then take on bosses, most of which are most well known even to casual X-Men fans. The graphics are nice and colorful and look surprisingly good, and each character's powers are presented well, but the overall feel of the game just feels unfinished and the levels are poorly designed. If your a GameBoy gamer of any kind and are a fan of the X-Men then this game is worth a look, but don't expect anything remotely redeeming from it.

this game is not brilliant but can include all the action a gameboy could give....the enemies are pretty easy to kill but the bosses( some of them ) are not, especially the last boss..... includes all the x-men including one called 'iceman' which i have never heard before with all their special attacks and special moves. if your an x-men fan buy it if not don't.

good selection and all but it had lack of dificultie. If you liked the playstation version, this is half as good.
