X-Men: Mojo World is an action game for the Sega Master System and Sega Game Gear, based upon the X-Men comics. The Game Gear version was exclusive to North America, while the Master System version was exclusive to Brazil.

Internally the game was referred to as X-Men 3, being a successor to X-Men: GamesMaster's Legacy.

Story

X-Men Mojo World, X-Men.png

X-Men

Spiral, a beautiful, six-armed television producer and denizen of Mojo World, pits the X-Men against their all-time toughest foes in a televised slugfest, The Greatest Battles of the X-Men.

Gameplay

The game is a side-scrolling action platformer. Wolverine and Rogue are initially selectable, but a new character is rescued and becomes available to play after each level is completed. The player can choose which character to play before each level (though, unlike previous entries, the player cannot choose the order in which to play the levels). There are two difficulty levels: "Maniac" (the easier option), and "Suicidal" (the harder option).

Characters move with Left and Right and crouch with Down. They can move while crouched with Down-left and Down-right. They attack with 1 and jump with 2. Characters can double jump by pressing 2 again in midair. The player can toggle the character's mutant ability by tapping  START , which replaces the character's regular attack. Using mutant abilities drains the mutant power bar. Rogue can fly using mutant power (instead of double jumping) by pressing 2 again in midair and using the D-Pad to move around.

The player can pause the game by holding  START ; pressing 1 while the game is paused returns to the level hub, allowing the player to change the character (but restarting the level).

Characters have a health bar that goes down when they take damage from enemies or other hazards (including high falls). If a character loses all health, the character is lost for the rest of the game and the player must restart the level with a different character. Falling down bottomless pits restarts the level from the beginning instead of costing the character. The game ends if the player loses every character.
