I have decided not to allow websites other than Gamefaqs (www.gamefaqs.com),
IGN (faqs.ign.com) & Gamespot (www.gamespot.com) to host my FAQs from now on.
Please don't ask, because I will not grant permission. It's just that too many
sites don't keep their version of my FAQ up to date which makes for a lot of
hassle in my mailbox.
So if anyone sees this FAQ on any site other than those mentioned above, please
let me know and I will take care of the situation, thanks.
Just to make things crystal clear for some people, this FAQ is not to appear
anywhere at the following URLs:

(E) WALKTHROUGH
###############################################################################
Bricklayer J. Gastronomy
You must travel through each stage surviving enemies and traps to reach the
stage boss and successfully beat them in battle. You only have one life
and one continue to do this in, and to make matters worse your energy DOES
NOT get restored between stages.
However you do get energy back by killing enemies, so if you're low on
energy be sure to kill some enemies for some health.
###############################################################################
STAGE 01: ELECTRO TAKES CHARGE OF THE SITUATION...
###############################################################################
Once the stage starts you can kill the enemy or jump over it, as Spidey can
jump pretty high. Continue right and jump the pair of green boxes, then jump
a larger stack of boxes. Jump another enemy and quickly jump onto the fence
beyond.
Drop to your right and pick up the webbing, then jump over some boxes followed
by another enemy and up onto a fence. Head right and jump a box and a pair of
enemies before jumping onto a fence.
Drop right and carefully jump onto the next fence while avoiding the missiles.
Jump straight up and shoot the guard on your left without getting shot
yourself, then jump to his fence.
Jump to the box on your right, then jump the guard and head right to the next
fence. Avoid the lightning as you jump up onto the fence, then look at the
ground on your right. You should see two blinking mines, it should go without
saying that you DON'T want to land on these.
Jump the mines and land on the box, then avoid the lightning as you jump more
mines to land on another box. Avoid more lightning then head right a little
and dodge another dose. Jump over the hidden mine at the telephone pole, then
jump some more mines just beyond it. Dodge the lightning and land on a box,
then jump to the fence.
Head right and jump over the missiles and the first mine in the same jump.
Jump and kill the pair of enemies when it is safe to do so, then jump over
their boxes. Head right and carefully jump three mines, continue right a
little and shoot the guard. Jump the mine and jump/shoot the guard, then
jump the box and head right to the next area.
Drop down the series of ledges and avoid the shooting guard until you land on
some boxes. Head right and jump up the platforms while avoiding the guard and
broken electrical socket. Go right and jump onto the boxes, then shoot the
guard above you.
Carefully work your way past the turret above you, then head right and avoid a
pair of electrical outlets. Drop down the platforms and quickly jump up out of
the way of the turret before it shoots you. Shoot the guard above you and grab
more webbing, then drop down and head left until you reach a door.
Attack the door to get past it, then head left and jump on the boxes. Drop all
the way down and jump left over the electrical outlet, then kill the guard and
head left. Drop down and avoid the turret and guards as you head right, then
jump the electrical outlet. Kill the guard and use the key he was carrying to
open the door and enter the next area.
=============
BOSS: Electro
=============
Drop down and head right, you will see Electro charging himself up. You will
not be able to beat him with the machine on so jump over him and jump kick the
on/off switch on his right to turn the machine off.
Now he will start flying around and throwing lightning at you, I find it
easiest to kick him from the top of the machine. Once you get about eight hits
on him you win and move on to the next stage.
###############################################################################
STAGE 02: SANDMAN APPEARS WITH A FIST OF FURY...
###############################################################################
Head right and jump the enemy, then fall down the ladder and drop left.
Continue left and jump onto the boxes, then fall down the hole on your left.
Go right and jump the boxes, then continue right and climb up the three
ladders.
Go right and drop down the first hole, then get the dynamite at the bottom.
Climb back out of the hole and go right to the rope, then climb it to the top.
Jump left and get the detonator nearby, then go back to the rope and fall down
it to the bottom.
Climb up a little and jump right to the block beside the green one, then jump
on the green block and immediately jump right as it breaks away. Work your way
down the blocks and go right to the room full of chains. Climb the chains and
work your way to the upper right, then jump up to the guard and shoot him.
Continue going up until you see the red box, walk up to it to set the dynamite.
Go down a little to set and use the detonator, then go through the open passage
to fight the boss.
=============
BOSS: Sandman
=============
As you move around the room Sandman will rise at your location every so often.
If you stay close to him he will try to punch you, if you are not close he will
shoot sand at you. He may also just sink back into the ground, he is a pretty
tough boss. I found the best way to beat him was to get in close and punch
him as this seems to do a lot of damage. Then you can finish him off with
kicks or webbing.
###############################################################################
STAGE 03: SPIDER-MAN HUNTS FOR MYSTERIO...THE MASTER OF ILLUSION
###############################################################################
Run right from the start and don't stop until you hit a wall, now go left and
jump unto the platform above you. Continue right and when you can't go right
any more jump the enemy and enter the door above you to reach the next area.
Climb the ladder and jump to the top of the screen, then work your way
carefully left to a ladder. Climb it and continue left, avoid the missiles as
you grab the IR-goggles. Carefully work your way back right and jump up to the
door and enter it to reach the next area.
This is the area that you need the IR-goggles for, otherwise you wouldn't see a
thing. Head left until you see some clawed enemies below you, these guys are
very deadly and can kill you quickly so jump over them. Continue left and
avoid the enemies then enter the door when you reach it to enter the next area.
Jump up the platforms and head right, fall down the ladder and duck to avoid
the enemy's shots. Kill him and continue right while avoiding the bombs, then
wait below the computer above you, just to the left of the enemy. Jump and
hold up, then you should bounce up on top of the computer. Kill the enemy and
watch the deadly enemy below, then when he starts to walk right drop down and
jump over him. Jump up to the guard and kill him, then continue right. Jump
up and head right, then jump up before the deadly enemy gets you. Continue
right and hide on the platform in the upper right corner. The next part is
quite hard, you need to drop down and jump kick over the lower enemy then run
through the door to the boss.
==============
BOSS: Mysterio
==============
Mysterio teleports to different locations and throws particles at you. If you
are close to him though he will punch or kick you, so try to keep your
distance. Just run until you see where he is, face him and duck. Now his
shots will pass over you, and you can punch him. Repeat until he dies, then
you will see that he was just an illusion and a door will open to the next
battle. After three of these battles you will fight the real Mysterio, and
once you beat him the stage ends.
###############################################################################
STAGE 04: VULTURE SWOOPS FOR SPIDER-MAN
###############################################################################
This stage is simple in design but tough in execution. Basically The Vulture
will swoop in from the right and drop bombs on you every so often. So you must
dodge them or jump over him. There are also cannons in the ground every so
often that pop up and fire at you so jump over them. Finally there are a
couple of guards that you can easily jump over. If you can make it all the way
to the end of the stage then you will fight The Vulture on the rooftops.
=================
BOSS: The Vulture
=================
Jump across the rooftops as you head right and avoid The Vulture's attacks,
once you reach the right end of the stage you can pick up some webbing. I
found the best spot to attack The Vulture was on top of the small red roof on
the right end of the area. Just use your webbing or jump kicks and he should
go down quite easily.
###############################################################################
STAGE 05: ONCE HE WAS HUMAN...NOW HE'S HOBGOBLIN
###############################################################################
This stage can be quite hard if you're low on health but it is possible.
Basically work your way right to get through the first area, you should jump
over the large enemy that shows up on the ground often and avoid his
projectiles. Try to jump on some flat tree stumps and branches and you may not
see Hobgoblin as often in the stage. He fires lasers downward at you when he
sees you, but you can jump over him quite easily. Once you reach the right end
of this area you will enter the boss battle with Hobgoblin in a cave.
===============
BOSS: Hobgoblin
===============
Drop to the bottom floor, then kick Hobgoblin and quickly pick up the webbing.
Now he should either fly at you or lurk below you, when he lurks just wait.
When he flies at you fire web at him and he will lurk. Sometimes he will fly
below you, now you should be ready to avoid his bombs. Repeat this basic
pattern and he should die easily, if you run out of webbing you can get more to
your right or just use kicks.
###############################################################################
STAGE 06: MASTERMINDING THE MAYHEM...DR. OCTOPUS IS BACK WITH A VENGEANCE
###############################################################################
Jump the enemy and run right to the fence, jump on it and kill the enemy there.
Now jump the three mines and carefully jump onto the branch, then quickly jump
the missiles. Jump the rats ahead and the guard beyond, then jump the fence
and run past the falling bombs. Jump the deadly enemy and jump onto the next
fence, then drop down and destroy the cannon. Jump the deadly enemy and
destroy the next cannon before jumping on the fence, then drop down and
destroy the cannon. Head right and jump the enemy, then jump the fence and
avoid the bats. Continue right and avoid a pair of enemies and more bats
before jumping on another fence, then jump some missiles and head right to
fight Dr. Octopus.
=================
BOSS: Dr. Octopus
=================
Get in real close to him and punch him while ducking until he dies, it's cheap
but it works really well. The doc fires projectiles otherwise or uses his arms
to go between floors if you let him. Once beaten you will be in a small cage
for a few seconds, after which you can go right to fight another Dr. Octopus.
Use the exact same tactics as you used on the first one and he should go down
just as easily. Once again you will be in a cage briefly before being allowed
to go right and fight another Dr. Octopus.
Use the exact same tactics that you've used so far and this battle will be over
in no time, then you have beaten the game.
"VICTORY!
Spider-Man triumphs over the Sinister Six..."

Big thanks go out to Mariner, thank you for all your help.

(G) EXPERIMENTAL
###############################################################################
For a little while now I've had a paypal link in all my FAQs at the very bottom
here. Mainly as a small experiment since a few other FAQ authors have also had
the same idea.
I had a few people email me before I put this link in because they wanted to
send money, so it's here for those people.
For the record I've received about $87 (which works out to a bit more in
Canadian lol) last I checked, so I've been getting cases of pop and making some
excellent progress on a few FAQs.
If you don't want to send money or can't then send me an email, it's nice to
hear what people thought about my work and there's always room for improvement.
My email address and paypal address for those that want to contribute are both

Many thanks, and I hope you continue to use my work!
