Superman: The Man of Steel is a 1989 video game, based on DC Comics' flagship character Superman. It was developed and published by UK software company Tynesoft under license from First Star Software.
The game is split into distinct levels including 3D flying, overhead vertical scrolling and side scrolling sections. The number of sections depended on format (e.g. part seven is missing from some versions). Sections are linked by comic book graphics telling the story.
The first level is a pseudo-3D forward scrolling flying level (similar to Space Harrier) where Superman, en route from Metropolis to S.T.A.R. Labs, is attacked by Parademons.
Part two is set on a ship where Lois Lane is being held hostage by terrorists. This takes the form of a side scrolling fighting game with Superman fighting off terrorists to reach and free Lois.
Superman: The Man of Steel is abandonware and no longer sold or supported by its publishers. Files are archived here for these platforms:
