Justice League Task Force is a competitive fighting game produced by Sunsoft and distributed by Acclaim for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System and Genesis in 1995. The Super NES version was co-developed by Blizzard Entertainment and the Genesis version by Condor, Inc. (later known as Blizzard North).
This fighting game pits some of the world's most famous (and not so famous) DC comics heroes against one another and against the forces of darkness in a series of one-on-one slug fests. Superman, Batman, The Flash and other Justice Leaguers are forced to not only beat up on the bad guys, but on each other and themselves as well. These fights are all part of alien emperor Darkseid's nefarious plan to rule the universe.
Justice League Task Force features three modes of play. The Hero Mode is for one player only and follows a comic bookish plotline. You must choose a hero and stick with him the entire contest, and after defeating all your super hero friends you must face Darkseid's allies Cheetah, Despero and ultimately Darkseid himself. The Player vs. CPU Mode is also a one-player game. This mode allows you to play as any of the heroes or villains. You can choose your opponent, the background and the difficulty level. In the Player vs. Player Mode you and a friend can choose any character you like, hero or villain, and then punch, hit and kick the snot out of each other. In every mode of play, the characters are capable of executing special moves that fit their comic book abilities. For example: Wonder Woman brandishes her Magic Lasso, and Superman is equipped with heat vision.
