Doom Troopers adapts the Mutant Chronicles comic to Mega Drive with futuristic warriors facing demonic forces. The dark art direction and platform shoot action appeal despite high difficulty. Solid for 16 bit sci-fi comic fans, original in the Acclaim license catalogue.

Collector interest
Doom Troopers, an adaptation of the Mutant Chronicles tabletop universe, reached Genesis in September 1995, very late for the US market, which capped its print run. Published by Playmates rather than a major label, this run'n'gun moved in modest quantities. Its collector pull comes mainly from that late, low-key distribution rather than any standout reputation, since period reviews met it without enthusiasm. The price is driven by raw scarcity, not by lasting aura.
