Spin a web as fast as you can!

Spider-Man Ultimate Power is a an arcade runner game in which you star as the arachnid super hero.

Trouble in the neighborhood

The premise of Spider-Man Ultimate Power is pretty straightforward. You run through the various scenarios, jumping the platforms and smashing bad guys as you go. The story is nothing very original: the bad guys are up to no good and it’s up to Spidey to stop them.

Spider-Man Ultimate Power has two game modes: Story and Survival. In Story mode you must complete missions to progress through the storyline. Missions are varied and include tasks such as destroying a set number of bad guys, or collecting things.

You can earn/purchase game currency in Spider-Man Ultimate Power which can be used for upgrading Spidey’s powers, applying boosts, or unlocking different suits to wear.

On the web

The action in Spider-Man Ultimate Power consists of running, jumping, swinging and shooting. The controls for all of these are pretty simple to grasp and Spider-Man automatically runs so you only need to control his actions.

It’s all very fast and furious but it’s good fun. Pulling off combos or wrapping up a bad guy in a web is very gratifying!

Comic book style

The graphics in Spider-Man Ultimate Power aren’t stunning by Android superhero game standards. They are bright and colorful and the characters look more or less as they do in the cartoon. The animation is pretty basic, though.

A fun superhero romp

Super-Man Ultimate Power doesn’t break any new ground in terms of gameplay. That said, it is fun to play and if you’re a Spidey fan you should enjoy it.
