# X-Men: Mind Games - A Cancelled Sega 32X Action Prototype *X-Men: Mind Games* is an unreleased action game developed by Scavenger and intended for publication by Sega for the Sega 32X, a Genesis add-on. Announced in 1995 and showcased at E3 with a planned release in fall 1995, it was cancelled, likely due to the 32X’s poor sales, with only 800,000 units sold worldwide. A very early prototype, dumped by Ryo Suzuki of SegaSaturno in August 2009, reveals a pseudo-3D beat ‘em up where players control Bishop, navigating a temple filled with traps and enemies. Advertisements suggested Wolverine, Rogue, and Iceman as playable characters, with E3 footage showing Wolverine, but only Bishop is playable in the prototype. Featuring SGI graphics and motion-capture animations, it aimed for cutting-edge visuals but remains incomplete, with unfinished physics and collision detection. There’s speculation it may have evolved into *The Incredible Hulk: The Pantheon Saga* (Sega Saturn/PS1/DOS).[](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_32X_games)[](https://lostmediawiki.com/X-Men:_Mind_Games_%28partially_found_build_of_cancelled_SEGA_32X_action_game%3B_1995%29)[](https://lostmediawiki.com/X-Men:_Mind_Games_%28partially_found_build_of_cancelled_Sega_32X_action_game%3B_1995%29) ## Why Play X-Men: Mind Games? This prototype offers a rare glimpse into a lost *X-Men* game, showcasing ambitious 3D visuals for the 32X, developed by Scavenger’s ex-Amiga demoscene team known for pushing hardware limits. The beat ‘em up gameplay, with Bishop fighting through a trap-laden temple, provides retro charm despite incomplete mechanics. Its historical significance and E3 1995 buzz make it a must-play for retro ROM collectors and *X-Men* fans, though its early alpha state, limited character selection, and emulation challenges (requiring real 32X hardware or Kega Fusion) may limit appeal. Gameplay lasts 1-2 hours due to its unfinished nature.[](https://hiddenpalace.org/X-Men_%2832X_prototype%29)[](https://archive.org/details/x-men.-32x) ## Game Features - Play as Bishop in a pseudo-3D beat ‘em up with a debug camera - Navigate a temple stage with traps and enemies (other stages unknown) - Experience early SGI graphics and motion-capture animations - Hints of planned characters: Wolverine, Rogue, Iceman - Playable only on real 32X hardware or Kega Fusion emulator - Experience rare prototype gameplay on our retro ROM platform ## Play X-Men: Mind Games Online Unleash your mutant powers today!
