    While it doesn't really bring anything new to the infinite runner genre the charm of your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man makes it enjoyable nonetheless. With a mission based structure and boss battles it's one of the more action oriented runners. With tons of different Spider-Men to collect there's plenty of reasons for any fan of the wall crawler to give this one a look.

    While it doesn't really bring anything new to the infinite runner genre the charm of your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man makes it enjoyable nonetheless. With a mission based structure and boss battles it's one of the more action oriented runners.

    Some issues with the touch-screen controls arise for time to time. Those who have played similar games will be used to making quick, short swipes, but doing that here will cause for your inputs to not be recognized. As you would expect this leads to a cheap death. Precise, longer swipes are required here. It's awkward at times, but not game ruining.

    In order to progress you are going to have to level up one of your Spider-Men, each taken from a different universe or chapter in Spidey comics. The rareness of your Spider-Man determines how much it can level up. As soon as you get a really rare one your time is best spent focusing solely on it. Collecting the others would be easier if there wasn't a limit on how many you could have at one time. That limit can always be upgraded though.

    Overall the tight gameplay, multiple Spider-Men (and women), and free-to-play nature make it all worth checking out. It doesn't do anything new for the genre, but it still gives you plenty of reasons to keep coming back. It does make a few grabs at your wallet every now and then, but there's really no reason to spend any money on it. So yes it can in fact be truly free-to-play.
