Silver Surfer is a video game released for the Nintendo Entertainment System, developed by Software Creations and released by Arcadia Systems in November 1990 in the United States. There have been no known releases in other regions. The game is widely known for its extreme difficulty as a shoot 'em up game, so difficult it has been said to be one of the hardest games ever made.

In Silver Surfer, the player controls the Marvel Comics comic book hero Silver Surfer through various levels that alternate between a side-scrolling and an overhead perspective.

Each stage is divided into sections. At the end of each section, a mini-boss appears, and the Silver Surfer must shoot the main enemy while other enemies attack as well. This is the only place where the screen stops scrolling forward. The third and final section contains a super-villain from the comic book series who will take more hits to defeat.
