X-Men Origins Wolverine

X-Men Origins Wolverine is an action game based on the film, which uses its plot as a basis and supplements it with events that did not make it onto the screen. The narrative follows two timelines: the search for a meteorite in Africa and events three years later. The story is divided into five episodes, to which a prologue and an epilogue are added. The player controls Wolverine, a mutant with an adamantium skeleton obtained during the experiments of William Stryker. At the beginning, the hero is shown embittered: he fights his way through soldiers of an unknown unit. Fights are based on claws and quick combinations of blows. Logan regenerates, but this does not eliminate the need to evade. Enemies vary in weapons, and larger opponents require waiting and precise dashes. Some levels are completed secretly, but in others you have to go ahead. Additional tasks unlock costumes and bonuses. The setting changes from the jungle to laboratories. Claws leave marks on opponents and walls. Dashes help you avoid shots and finish off the wounded. Some tasks require disrupting an experiment or destroying equipment. Additional challenges unlock costumes. The design is gloomy, and the music emphasizes the hero’s anger. Between episodes there are inserts explaining the motives. Enemies are divided by weapons, so the approach changes. The equipment in the levels serves as both cover and threat. Some levels are completed in the dark and in the rain. No experience is wasted, so leveling is linear. Additional bonuses are unlocked for found tokens. For those who like superhero fights without long pauses, the game is suitable.
