This 1996 video game for the Sega Saturn, Sony PlayStation and PC was published by the then owners of the Tomb Raider franchise Eidos Interactive and was based on a storyline from the Incredible Hulk comics.

The game begins with you (as The Hulk) trapped in the Pantheon headquarters and the first few levels see you making your escape. The Hulk himself has basic fighting moves, including punching and kicking, and he can also pick up and use objects he finds along the way. As you defeat each end of level boss, they will join The Hulk to fight alongside him.

Although there are heavy fighting aspects, the game does require you do plenty of exploring and solve some fairly rudimentary puzzles if you want to progress. The last part of the game requires you to beat the Super Villains, which include Trauma, Lazarus and Maestro.

The game was poorly received by the gaming press, explaining why you might not have heard about it, but will probably please fans of the big green beast.
