Superman Returns: The Videogame is a video game for the Nintendo DS that is based off the movie, Superman Returns. It was developed by Electronic Arts, and released in 2006. There was a similar title for the Game Boy Advance called Superman Returns: Fortress of Solitude.

Gameplay[]

The game has an 80 sq. mile free-roaming map, and the character is able to fly into the stratosphere generated in the game though not into the depths of the ocean surrounding the fictional city. Superman's complete array of superpowers are at the player's disposal, and the player is required to 'master' Superman's powers, because Superman might cause harm to the city if his powers are used incorrectly. If the player wishes to use heat vision, they must use the right power level, for too much power can lead to civilian casualties and destruction. Although at the beginning of the game you will start off using the most basic forms of Superman's powers and you will be required to upgrade them in order to achieve greater strength, speed, distance and damage. As for the flying in-game, the player will be able to fly at different speeds, the maximum being 800 mph, which is faster than the speed of sound. The faster Superman travels, the more the screen will blur. As stated above, each power will have different levels of energy.

Reception[]

Superman Returns: The Videogame was received poorly.
