In modern popular culture, it is difficult to find a more popular superhero than Spider-Man. Originally appearing in the Marvel comics, he later became one of the most recognizable characters in superhero films and TV series, as well as computer games.
The best Spider-Man games that have been released on PC since 1984 will be discussed in this collection.
Spider-Man
A 1984 adventure game, one of the first PC games dedicated entirely to Spider-Man. This is a typical two-dimensional quest with pixels in half the screen, which can only interest ardent fans of classic games today. But at one time it was a very interesting and innovative game.
The Amazing Spider-Man
2D platformer from Oxford Digital Enterprises, released on computers in 1990. The main enemy of Spider-Man here is the insidious Mysterio, who kidnapped the superhero’s girlfriend. The scene of action is an abandoned film studio, converted by Mysterio into a villainous lair. This means that the Spider is expected to face the evil robots serving Mysterio, as well as numerous deadly traps, cleverly hidden throughout the complex of the film studio.
Marvel Comics Spider-Man: The Sinister Six
An old adventure game, the gameplay of which has been augmented with RPG elements. Spider-Man can be pumped, giving him access to new superhero abilities. Despite the fact that the game is very old (it was released in 1996), it has a pretty nice visual style, which recreates the design of old superhero comics. The hero’s opponents are six villains at once, taken from the original universe about Spider-Man. Another nice feature of the game is the presence of several endings at once, which can serve as an incentive to replay.
Spider-Man: The Movie
An action game released in 2002 to celebrate the launch of the first Spider-Man movie. Its plot is almost identical to the plot of the movie. Except perhaps for a few not-so-important scenes. There is no open world and spectacular graphics familiar to modern gamers, and the gameplay is implemented rather casually. Still, the game received mostly positive reviews. It is in great demand even in our time. Especially for those with weak computers who are unable to cope with the newer Spider-Man games.
Ultimate Spider-Man
Released in 2005, Ultimate Spider-Man is one of the fan favorites of the Spider-Man universe. There are many reasons for this. One of them is the presence of incredible graphics stylized as bright modern comics. Another important reason for the success of Ultimate Spider-Man is the presence in the game of an incredible storyline based on the confrontation between Spider-Man and Venom, who is considered almost the worst enemy of the superhero. True, the project also has one serious drawback – the game is incredibly short. It takes just 3-4 hours.
Spider-Man: Web of Shadows
A game about Spider-Man, who is once again forced to fight the evil Venom and save the city from the symbionts he created. Quite a pleasant game in terms of graphics, with vigorous action and the presence of an open world of medium size.
Spider-Man: Edge of Time
In this game, the Spider travels back in time to correct the mistakes made by his counterpart from another dimension. The plot as a whole is very confusing and interesting. There is an open world with nice modern graphics. In addition to a large number of interesting main tasks, there are also many auxiliary ones that greatly increase the duration of the gameplay.
Amazing Spider-Man: The Game
A game based on the updated Marvel Cinematic Universe, dedicated to the solo adventures of Spider-Man. The main advantage of the game is its independent plot, which is completely new and unique, and does not copy individual events previously shown in the films.
