Superman is a classic action-adventure game that brings the iconic superhero to life on the Atari 2600. The story follows Clark Kent as he must transform into Superman and save the day after Lex Luthor destroys the Metropolis bridge. With thugs, a helicopter, Kryptonite satellites, and even Lex Luthor himself in his way, Superman must be careful not to get caught.
The gameplay revolves around guiding Superman through various levels, collecting items like a first-aid kit and avoiding obstacles like the helicopter. With three Kryptonite satellites to destroy, Superman must navigate through different environments while staying one step ahead of his enemies. Along the way, he can find Lois Lane for help if he's caught by a Kryptonite trap, allowing him to regain the ability to fly.
