That 71 average hides a game its 162 fans would defend to the death. An adventure game leaning hard into science fiction — more about the journey than the destination. Solo only, and better for it — this is a one-player experience through and through.

About this game

Developed by Treyarch and published by Activision, the game has you playing as Spider-Man in the events of the movie while also adding new enemies like the Shocker and Vulture. The gameplay consists of successive levels where you need to defeat thugs with your fists and web and save someone/something from multiple sources of danger until you reach the boss of the section. You either fight in enclosed environments or swing around New-York City in "aerial" sequences.

Spider bites can sometimes turn you into a superhero, as in the case of Peter Parker in Spider-Man: The Movie. Assume the role of Peter, a good-hearted teenager bitten by a genetically engineered spider, which gives him muscles, incredible strength, and spider-like abilities. You’ll have to learn how to control your powers including Spider Sense, web-slinging, and wall crawling, and the all-new aerial combat moves. The world’s toughest villains, including Shocker, Vulture, and the Green Goblin will all be after you. Are you up for the challenge?
