Platforming interludes task the player with suitably heroic fare like scaling burning buildings, navigating villainвЂ™s lairs rigged with deadly lasers, and rescuing trussed up New YorkerвЂ™s from perilous situations. The bone-crunching combat is obviously a highlight, but, of course, this being a Spider-Man game, swinging between buildings and wall-crawling also plays a big part. Environments also get quite spectacularly torn asunder as teams of bad guys try their damnedest to squish him. These frequent scraps are visually stunning, with Spider-Man careening around environments and ricocheting off walls like some sort of turbo-charged pinball. Gameloft implement this super power in a really neat way вЂ“ tapping a flashing onscreen icon at just the right moment during a brawl triggers a Bullet-Time-y special move, which sees Spidey narrowly avoid an enemy attack and retaliate all in one seamless, slo-mo feat of acrobatics. In addition to your mad kung-fu skills and web-slinging prowess, you can also make use of your spider sense. Skillfully stringing together combos (or indeed frantically mashing the buttons) sees our hero pull off an array of lightening quick moves, the likes of encasing a baddie in webbing, then using him as a human bowling ball to take down other foes.

A virtual d-pad handles movement, while a trio of action buttons take care of delivering kicks, punches and shooting webs. Ass-kickings are dished out via a pitch-perfect control scheme, with Gameloft capturing Spider-ManвЂ™s distinctive fighting style faultlessly. YouвЂ™re barely given a chance to drool over the gameвЂ™s eye-poppingly crisp, vibrant visuals before a gang of knife wielding goons arrive on the scene to welcome Spidey to this not so friendly neighbourhood.Д¬ue some of the fastest and most fluid combat ever to grace the iPhone.

With his spider sense a-tingling, Peter Parker strips down to the iconic red and blue spandex and swings into action. HereвЂ™s the dealio: Thanks to a mysterious explosion, a veritable whoвЂ™s who of supervillains have escaped the Triskellion building, a maximum security prison, and are proceeding to take a bite out of the Big Apple in their own inimitable style.

Total Mayhem begins with a very snazzy animated intro that nails the comic book aesthetic perfectly and also serves to set the authentically over-the-top plot in motion. Blockbuster production values are evident from the word go.
