About
Marvel Super Heroes in War of the Gems is a beat'em up platformer developed by Capcom for the SNES in 1996, based on the Infinity Gauntlet storyline. Players choose from five heroes, Captain America, Iron Man, Spider-Man, Wolverine, or Hulk, and battle through stages to collect the six Infinity Gems. Each character has unique attacks and abilities, with special moves borrowed from Capcom's Marvel fighting games.

Trivia
When a character is defeated, they must be revived individually with the appropriate item. Some stages have different routes for each character, so bigger characters have to break through a wall and smaller characters who can't break through a wall have to climb up a wall and take a different route.
