The variety of enemies is similarly disappointing: you'll run into a maximum of only 2-3 enemy types per level. The levels are quite bland, with none of the nifty variety of Maximum Carnage (such as the rooftop scenes). Two player can play both characters simultaneously - which means the plot has been devised to justify the superhero working alongside the villain: both of them must co-operate to stop the alien symbiotes from creating an unstoppable army. His power-moves include a powerful uppercut and pounding the ground to hurt everyone in the vicinity. Venom is stronger, but slower than Spider-Man. Spider-Man is faster and more agile than Venom, and his special "power-moves" include a grab-and-kick move and a tornado kick. Both characters have different strengths and attack moves. Much like its predecessor, Separation Anxiety places you in control of either Spider-Man or Venom, a criminal vigilante who possesses Spider-Man's powers and even greater strength. Unfortunately Maximum Carnage was never released on PC, so PC gamers will have to take comfort in the fact that while Separation Anxiety is inferior to its predecessor in every aspect, it is still a much better game than many other beat'em ups in the market.

Spider-Man & Venom: Separation Anxiety is the sequel of Maximum Carnage, one of the best superhero action games ever made.
