Storyline

You are Superman.

Receiving a tip on a bomb scare, you rush to the Metropolis waterfront. Dropping into a nearby phone booth, you change into Clark Kent, mild-mannered reporter for the Daily Planet, and continue toward the Metropolis Memorial Bridge.

As you approach the Bridge, it explodes! Lex Luthor, arch enemy of SUPERMAN, is seen leaving in a heli-pack. Some of Luthor's henchmen rush from the scene. A helicopter flies by carrying Lois Lane. Is she in trouble, or has she hired the helicopter to scoop the story?

This is a job for Superman! You rush back to the phone booth and emerge as the Man of Steel. “Up, up and away” you fly to capture Lex Luthor and his gang. But beware! Lex Luthor has released three Kryptonite satellites that will seek you out. If any touch you, you become weak and you will lose your ability to fly, to capture and to hold on to things...
