The Adventures of Hyperman (video game)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
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]
