    An acceptable set of Spider-Man, is not open world, but you play with partners, both heroes as villains, a basic history, not surprisingly, also with a simple gameplay, you have to keep fighting the enemies coming, and sometimes it appears some mini-game, just to vary a little phases, in the end, is not such a good game as well.

    Bland 3D beat 'em up where you're partnered up with characters with different abilities. Except there's very little imagination or invention on show - for example only Black Cat can use a door...*eyeroll*. There are a lot of Spider-Man games on the DS and not only is this not the best, it's not even one of the better ones. Try Lego Batman instead.

    The use the game makes of the double screen and the villain variety boosts this game's luster much more than other Spider-man games would've for its time.

    The adventures are fine, the story is decent, and the playable villains are the most enjoyable part of the game. Unfortunately, the game doesn't offer anything in terms of re-playability. It's visually unappealing (even for a DS game)

It's visually unappealing (even for a DS game) and it's linear and contained approach leave no room for bonus content or anything compelling once the credits roll.

    Overall, it's a decent DS game experience for a good price so if you can find it for a severe discount, it's worth checking out.

  1. The Nintendo DS version of Friend or Foe is by far the most different, but it’s also the most in line with previous Spider-Man games on its respective platform. Friend or Foe’s addition of enemies and solid coop mode make it a solid addition to the Nintendo DS’ Spider-Man lineup.
  2. I loved Spider-Man: Friend or Foe on the console and the DS version offers a fun and challenging smaller scale version of that same game with some clever touchscreen puzzle elements thrown into the mix.
  3. A likeable, challenging and entertaining portable action game that has its share of problems but is fun enough for young Spidey fans to enjoy.
