The Story Behind Spider-Man: The Video Game
Black Cat is athletic and acrobatic like a cat, using a combination of her claws, grappling hook and cables to defeat enemies. Unlike many games of this type which assigned a certain character to a certain joystick, any player can choose any character (as long as another player isn't already controlling them). A citizen of Atlantis, Sub-Mariner uses water based projectile attacks, such as a hydro-electric blast, in combat.
Spider-Man: The Video Game, also known as is a 1991 arcade video game developed by Sega based on the Marvel Comics character Spider-Man. Spider-Man is the game's main hero and protagonist. Recognizable as one of the Avengers, Hawkeye's attacks and abilities revolve around the use of his bow and arrows.
How Spider-Man: The Video Game Plays
Spider-Man: The Video Games soundtrack is also composed partially of songs from Sega's 1986 arcade game Quartet, notably the tunes "Oki Rap" and "FM Funk" (for instance, "FM Funk" appears in the second stage in Spider-Man, while it is featured in the third stage of Quartet). The game was divided into four acts, encountering various villains, including Kingpin, Venom and his symbiote clones, Doctor Octopus, Electro, Lizard, Scorpion, Sandman, Green Goblin, Hobgoblin, and finally Doctor Doom. Spider-Man and his allies must retrieve a mystical artifact first from the Kingpin, then Doctor Doom.
The game was released as a coin-operated arcade title based on the Sega System 32 hardware. Spider-Man is the game's main hero and protagonist. A citizen of Atlantis, Sub-Mariner uses water based projectile attacks, such as a hydro-electric blast, in combat.

In Japan, Game Machine listed Spider-Man on their November 1, 1991 issue as being the fourteenth most-successful table arcade unit of the month. Each hero has a unique set of moves and attacks/abilities, which could be used to beat up the bad guys, that suited their powers and characteristics, as well as basic attacks and jumps (assigned to each of the two buttons).
