Spider-Man 2

About

Released in 2004 for the Game Boy Advance, this hack-and-slash adventure from Digital Eclipse is based on the Spider-Man 2 film and draws on Marvel's broader roster of characters. Players control Spider-Man across 19 levels that expand beyond the movie's plot, incorporating original storylines involving classic villains such as Vulture, Shocker, Rhino, and Mysterio alongside the primary antagonist Doc Ock. Gameplay centers on traversing New York City through swinging, wall-crawling, and jumping while engaging enemies with a variety of combo moves. The levels span street level and rooftop environments rendered in 3D graphics, and the overall scope of the city was noted as particularly large for a superhero game of its time. The narrative follows Spider-Man's efforts to protect New York's civilians from escalating threats throughout each stage.
