IIRC the game is based on the Mars Attacks trading card, not the Mars Attacks! movie. The movie is also based on the original trading cards, but the game devs could not buy the rights to the movie.

So this article is a bit misleading, I guess it will be updated when someone from Warner Bros notices it.

Those cards gave me nightmares, but the movie was hilarious. The intervening years were a definitely a factor, though.
