Description
Galactus has summoned his herald, the Silver Surfer, to do battle with a horde of villains from the realms beyond. In Silver Surfer, players control the famous Marvel character as he fights his way through six worlds. Silver Surfer must fire shots at enemies to destroy them in every stage, while evading those he cannot shoot down along with dangerous terrain. Collecting power ups can upgrade the Surfer’s weapons to include orbs that follow him around, firing extra shots. Players can also unleash a powerful bomb attack to clear the screen of foes.
Each stage is guarded by a boss from the comics that include characters like Mephisto and Possessor. Stages are broken up into side scrolling and overhead sections that have to be completed before Silver Surfer can face the boss.
