Summary
The Fantastic 4 on Game Boy Advance takes the movieâs storyline and squeezes it into an isometric, actionâpacked adventure. I guide each member of the team through levels that echo key film moments, swapping between Mr.âŻFantasticâs stretch, Invisible Womanâs cloaking and telekinesis, the Human Torchâs fireâandâflight, and the Thingâs brute strength to solve puzzles and blast enemies.
Combat feels like a beatââemâup with a twist: a combo meter fills an orange bar that, when full, unleashes a characterâspecific super move, and you can even âbuffâ a teammateâInvisible Woman can encase Mr.âŻFantastic in a protective bubble for a few seconds. Hidden F4 Tokens unlock arena battles and bonus interviews, while extra difficulty settings reveal secret Latverian stages and, with a cheat, a fiery Hell level.
The gameâs soundtrack is a quirky nod to earlyâ2000s indie rock, featuring bands like Taking Back Sunday and Jurassic 5 as theme songs for each hero. Though the GBA version mirrors its console counterpart, the blend of exploration, puzzleâsolving, and teamâbased combat gives it a distinct flavor that still feels fresh for handheld fans.
Storyline
The Game Boy Advance title Fantastic 4 opens with Reed Richards, Sue Storm and Johnny Storm knocked unconscious on a rooftop by a blast from Doctor Doom. Sue awakens first, uses her force field to block Doomâs electric attack and summons Ben Grimm, who is emerging from a transformation chamber after his rockâlike exterior has been removed. The narrative then flashes back to the beginning of the movie: the team signs a pact, flies into space, is struck by a cosmic storm that grants them powers, and returns to Victorâs medical compound where they recover.
Back in New York, the newlyâformed Fantastic Four confront a wave of strange creatures invading Grand Central Station, defeat the Mole Man and his giant pet, and later travel to a Mexican jungle to retrieve a cosmic meteor needed for Reedâs mutationâreversal machine. Their quest is interrupted when Alicia Masters is kidnapped by animated mummies and dinosaurs at Victorâs museum exhibit; the heroes rescue her but cause massive damage, angering Victor.
Victor then sends Doombots after the team, leading to a massive battle in Times Square that ends with Nick Fury imprisoning the quartet in the Vault. After a chaotic breakout involving Dragon Man, Fury releases them on the condition they investigate his sabotaged laboratory, which is overrun by mutated plants and insects. The team secures a power source, fully charges Reedâs machine, and returns to the Baxter Building.
Victor uses the poweredâup system against the Fantastic Four, luring Ben into the transformation chamber and stealing his strength. The remaining three struggle against an empowered Doctor Doom but are beaten until Ben, remorseful for abandoning his friends, reâenters the chamber, regains his Thing form and launches a brutal rooftop assault on Doom, allowing his teammates to finish the battle and save the city.
