Superman is one of the most iconic characters in popular culture, inspiring audiences for nearly 90 years. However, his video game adaptations have been largely unsuccessful. Early games like those on the Atari and Commodore 64 failed to capture the character's essence, offering simplistic gameplay with little narrative depth. A 1992 Genesis game briefly showcased his powers but lacked distinction from other action-platformers. Although the Death and Return of Superman game was somewhat better, it still did not truly represent what makes Superman unique as a superhero.
Superman has remained an inspiring figure for nearly 90 years across various media, yet video games have struggled to authentically portray his unique strengths and character.
Early video games, such as those for Atari and Commodore 64, failed to capture Superman's essence, offering simplistic gameplay rather than meaningful narrative or varied heroic actions.
