Justice League Task Force is one of those weird little fighting games from the mid-90s that feels like it should be way cooler than it actually is. You get to pick from six DC heavyweights—Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, etc.—and mash buttons in awkwardly animated fights. It's got that unmistakable Blizzard jank before they hit it big with Warcraft and StarCraft.
The roster's small, and some of the moves are clunky as hell (good luck landing Batman's grapple consistently), but there's something charming about how rough it is. The stages are these weird, flat backgrounds that look like someone slapped together comic panels in MS Paint. Still, if you grew up with a Genesis, you probably wasted an afternoon or two on this one.
It's not great, but it's a fun little time capsule of when superhero games were still figuring things out.
