'DuckTales' and 'The Amazing Spider-Man' Games on Sale: McDuck and Masked Menace in Cahoots"
Probably not. I'm just asking the pertinent questions. Gameloft's The Amazing Spider-Man [$0.99] games and Disney's DuckTales: Remastered [$0.99] only have a few things in common. Both star classic American cartoon and/or comic characters. Both look pretty darned spiffy in action. And both only seem to go on sale this low once a year.

You play as Uncle Scrooge on a treasure hunt around the world, with the help of your friends, family, and trusty pogo cane. I rather enjoyed it, as you can see in my review.The only major quibble is that the touch controls can be a little tricky in places, so if you're not so good with virtual buttons and don't have an MFi controller, tread carefully.
