The premise, in the publisher's words
Spider bites can sometimes turn you into a superhero, as in the case of Peter Parker in Spider-Man: The Movie. Assume the role of Peter, a good-hearted teenager bitten by a genetically engineered spider, which gives him muscles, incredible strength, and spider-like abilities. You’ll have to learn how to control your powers including Spider Sense, web-slinging, and wall crawling, and the all-new aerial combat moves.
