CONTROLS: Look out for in-game hints, but the basic controls are as follows: A = Attack (on its own to aim low, with a direction to aim high) B = Block A+B = Grapple R = Run (double tap to jump or fly) A+R = Big Attack P = Pick-Up / Drop (with a direction to throw) R+P = Set fire T = Taunt, use prop, release hold S = Special power * Tap the portrait to transform (once activated). * Touch the clock (or bottom of the screen) to pause the game. * Tap the speech bubbles to speed through conversations. * Pinch the middle of the display to zoom in or out. This game depicts a fictitious universe. Any similarities to real characters past or present is purely coincidental.
