Spiderman was the second of the Questprobe series of games - a deal set up between Adventure International and Marvel Comics. The theory was that a game and a comic would be released simultaneously so, in theory, new audiences would be found. Unfortunately the games tended to be simplistic and the comics tended to be weak. The deal ended when Adventure International went bankrupt.

How it begins

We start with Spiderman stuck in an office block with many of his old enemies. His task: to collect a selection of gems.

Notable features

Released along with a comic.
