Superman was a game I never understood as a kid. Wanting to understand it, it was one of the first games I got for my 2600+ (I'm up to over 80 carts since Xmas, so yeah...) and I'm so happy I took the time to learn how it works. It's now among my top 10 favorites. It's a bird! It's a plane!

This game and E.T. are two games that are so underrated. No one understood the mechanics of E.T. because no one took the time to read the manual. Everything people didn't understand was explained perfectly in the manual. Once I read that and understood what the player was supposed to do, it was a pretty decent game. I think Superman also fits that category. Now, Raiders of the Lost Ark, on the other hand, was also a hot mess of a game and the manual didn't explain anything. But, if you were able to figure it out, it was another decent game. It just made you work for your fun. 😂

Despite the fact that I did not understand how to play this game back in the day, it was still a game I played a lot. I was around at 6-8 years old at the time, so I was still learning to read AND I was also learning English (native Spanish speaker). In time, I figured out how to play EXCEPT for turning back to Clark Kent and going to the daily planet. At age 9-ish, I was trying out other games and this game was just one I had. It was not until relatively recently that I learned how to beat the game (and ET interestingly enough) from a different KZitemr. Thank you for the run and for the memories. I really did love playing this one.

The greatest thing about this game is that the better you get, the shorter the game. I remember getting tired of playing games like Pac-Man because I was good enough to play those games for hours and just didn't want to spend that much time playing. But with Superman, you could play for literally less than 60 seconds per game when you got good at it.

Superman has a slight glitch. When you first start the game, instead of flying down to the phone booth, use your vision to look around. Sometimes, he'll skip the phone booth and you can fly straight to the bridge and you can immediately start scooping up bad guys and bridge parts. The bridge will blow up into parts, but will still be intact at the same time.

Move to the left one screen which is the Daily Planet and win the game in 5 seconds!

I used to find several glitches and Easter Eggs back in the day. One involved capitalizing on the Select button, which paused the game. While paused, the screen jumps around to other scenes. It turns out that if you resume the game while Superman (or Clark Kent) is superimposed with a subway entrance from another screen (or even the Daily Planet), you can effectively warp there, despite it not being on the screen you originally paused from! With just a little creativity, you can have the broken bridge screen warp Clark Kent to the left. And with even more creativity, you can bypass the initial phone booth at the beginning of the game! Doing this gives you a crippled version of Superman that tries to fly but immediately goes back down. But you can still travel south, just never north unless you're in a subway or the Daily Planet. Furthermore, you can even find the broken bridge pieces inside the subway if you use the above tricks to bypass the bridge screen. Doing so will allow the coexistence of an intact bridge plus the 3 pieces! And even funnier still, you can do the initial transformation to Clark Kent, warp to the Daily Planet and "win" the game, even while Lex Luthor's minions are still roaming around! And if you're still creative enough, you can "win" in just a few seconds, or even zero seconds!

There's two options. One is a cheat using select button as pause, then the screensaver kicks in and you can hit the joystick when the Daily Planet comes around to win at 0 seconds.

Putting one of the difficulty switches on A, to stop Lois Lane (or maybe Miss Teschmacher from the movie) from coming to your rescue is just sadistic. You've really got to reset when the Kryptonite hits you. However, it's possible to win without touching them, though they blink or flash like crazy, and the silver one is really fast with the other difficulty on A, too.

I played a ton of Superman as a kid. I remember getting frustrated the first time I played because I didn’t know how to finish the game, and It took over 20 minutes to beat it. After I got the hang of it, my best time was 1:45. It’s the only game I’ve ever ver tried to speed run, and I used multiple exploits to reduce my time, like resetting the game each time the counter started at 1 instead of 0, and not waiting for the bridge to explode before running to change back into Superman. Fun times!!

I think I might have played it, but it's too far back to remember exactly. I better remember the NES and arcade games. Still, it looks like good ole simple fun.

I had this game and knew how to play it, but I think my mom bought it used at Goodwill well after the crash without instructions. I can't figure out how I learned to play it. I played it recently and it was amazing how it was still ingrained in my muscle memory! I was able to beat it faster than this video!

Just good game design. Would be great if this game was revised with modern day graphics and sound. I think it would be better than many other Superman games that flopped over the years.
