Gameplay

The Adventures of Hyperman is a game in which players assist Hyperman and Emma C. Squared in locating scientific objects favored by the villain Entrobe. These objects are placed into a containment warp field to lure Entrobe and his sidekick Kid Chaos back into captivity. The game provides access to Emma’s laboratory, where players use scientific tools such as a simulation terrarium to observe environmental effects and an electron microscope for examining materials. Certain sequences require operating devices like a catapult used to launch Hyperman toward a castle. To activate it, players determine the correct relationship between weight, velocity, and angle to achieve the intended trajectory. [2]

Reception

CNET said "Hyperman isn't as funny as The Tick, and it's hard to imagine youngsters giving up their favorite Saturday morning cartoons to learn about science". [2]

Computer Game Review said "This will appeal to kids because of its very well done cartoon graphics style and excellent sound effects". [6]

Television series

A television series based on the game premiered in 1995. [7]
