Mutant Apocalypse is your typical SNES beat em up with an X-Men skin that tries to be different from the rest with it's level selection system.
The main gimmick is that you can play as several members of the X-Men, namely Gambit, Wolverine, Beast, Psylock and Cyclops. Wolverine can climb walls, Beast can climb platforms, Psylock can jump high, Cyclops can shoot laser and Gambit can throw his cards around. Every member has a mission that is unique to him and you can retry each of them 2 times before a failure. The levels are very short, almost every one of them ends with a boss fight, and the ones that do not are mostly just "punch and kick this thing until it breaks".
Some of the special moves are required to progress forward, so for those who do not know how to use them, a quick tip:
Gambit needs to use his cards against his "boss fight", which can be used with up+up+attack.
Cyclops can shoot laser with down+left or right+attack.
The second set of missions were way too frustrating because they needed to ramp up the difficulty to strech out the length of the game (Wolverine boss with the alien looking thing is outrageous). However, if you really like the X-Men, check this one out because it is made by Capcom, it looks nice and you can find some value in it. I am sure that at the time, this was super fun, I just do not find it that fun and I believe there are plenty of beat em ups on the SNES that are better in every way.
