Notes: Action game based on the one of the most legendary showdowns in comic book history. If you’re familiar with it, then you know what to expect. The graphics are generally good, and you get to face six of Spiderman’s most famous enemies.
Notes: Out of all of the games released by this company, this one is without a doubt the greatest of all. It basically plays just like “The Legend of Zelda,” but overblown with tons of born-again Christian ideals and morality. You get to take on Satan at the end after you collect the armor of god and the fruits of the spirit.
Notes: Features the retired character from 7UP soda. Gameplay is basically the same as “Othello,” but much, much better. Four people can play at once, so it can actually be a lot of fun if you get a group of friends together.
Notes: Racing/action game taken from the arcade version. Other than graphics that have been stepped down slightly, it plays exactly the same. Avoid, shoot, or otherwise disrupt enemy cars while you race ahead. Eventually you get to change vehicles.

Notes: Two-player action/strategy game based on the legendary characters created by Prohjas for Mad Magazine. You can play against a friend or the computer. Gameplay involves collecting items and using them to plant traps to defeat your opponent. Not bad at all. Note that the upper portion of the label reads simply “Mad Magazine’s Official.”
Notes: An early release that has been really overlooked. Takes the basic shooter concept and places it in the ocean with you at the helm of a submarine. Plays like “Gradius” underwater.
