Scaling a skyscraper using web lines allows Spider-Man to climb toward a super bomb placed by the Green Goblin. Players must swing back and forth to capture villains for bonus points, but colliding with enemies will cut the web line and cause a fall. Success requires reaching the high voltage tower at the top to defuse the device.
