I'm a 26 year old man, and I sincerely enjoyed this game. The gameplay is very similar to a Super nintendo type Spider-man game, but much more fun. It's pretty short, and it basically quadruples in difficulty toward the end of the game.

Fun game, good controls, kinda short (~5 hours of gameplay to finish, total 7 hours to get +90%).

Spider-Man has had a pretty good track record on the DS thus far, and Spider-Man: Web of Shadows is no different. Using the same formula of 3-D character models on a 2-D side scrolling plane that the last few Spidey games on the DS have, Web of Shadows is a solid and fun, albeit short, ride that is fun while it lasts. Symbiotes have taken over New York City, and naturally it's up to Spidey to take 'em all down. You have the ability to play in either the classic costume or the black suit, which makes Spidey more powerful. The game looks good and sounds great, and is simple enough for anyone to pick up and play. The flaws of Web of Shadows on the DS are, as said before, that the game is quite short, so short in fact that you could easily finish it in one sitting. There's also a little bit of backtracking involved that dulls down the gameplay, but as a whole, the game is a more than solid offering. All in all, if you own a DS and are a Spidey fan, Spider-Man: Web of Shadows is most definitely worth checking out.

Our two sons -- ages 6 and 4 -- are die-hard Spidey fans.
We already own Spider-Man: Friend or Foe, Spider-Man: Battle for New York and Spider-Man 3 but none of those Nintendo DS games offered the simple, intuitive controls of Spider-Man: Web of Shadows.
When my sons want to enjoy a little web swinging and wall crawling they don't want to have to think about how to do it. Spider-Man: Web of Shadows is the sixth game on the Nintendo DS but it is the first one to get the Webhead's controls right.
The game has too many Marvel Comics characters -- heroes and villians -- to list them all but here's a few that should excite your die-hard Spidey fan: Venom, Rhino, Nightcrawler, Kingpin, Vulture, Electro, Luke Cage and Green Goblin!
My sons also loved the fact that they can change between the original red-suited Spider-Man and the newer black-suited Spider-Man with the click of a button. The storyline is a little darker than the other Spider-Man titles but there's nothing here that will induce nightmares; the gameplay is stictly comic book and there's relatively little gore compared to most action-adventure titles available.
In summary, Spider-Man: Web of Shadows is the superhero's best title currently available on the Nintendo DS. Kids young and old will appreciate the easier controls and the large cast of comic book characters provided.
