Marvel Heroes Games

If your looking for games featuring Marvel heroes, I have a great suggestion for you and it's called Marvel Legendary.

Marvel Legendary is a board game featuring a big roster of the Marvel heroes who set out to stop various masterminds from accomplishing their evil schemes. The game itself is a deck building board game that is played co-op style with 1-4 players. The players will use their starter decks to buy hero cards that will help them build up enough attack to get rid of henchmen and ultimately stop the mastermind they are facing.

The heroes side of the roster is pretty good. You get all the major Avengers, such as Captain America, Iron Man, Hulk, Thor, Hawkeye, Black Widow, and Nick Fury. You also get a healthy amount of X-men such as Cyclops, Emma Frost, Gambit, Deadpool, Storm, Rogue and Wolverine. Of course, Spiderman is also included.

In terms of the bad guys you get 4 masterminds in Loki, Dr. Doom, Red Skull and Magneto. You also get their buddies like Hydra, the Brotherhood of Evil, Spider Foes, and the Masters of Evil. There's lots for them to do as well. Some of the schemes that they try include, the Super Hero Civil War, the Skrull Invasion, Converting Earths Leaders into Kill Bots, and Releasing the Legacy Virus.

So how does it work? Well, you pick a mastermind and a scheme first. You then pick his villains and henchmen and finish building the villain deck and shuffle it. You then pick 5 heroes and take their cards and shuffle them together to make the hero deck. You also give each player a starter deck with 12 cards.

To play a round, each player draws a villain card and reveals it. If it's an enemy it goes in the city and can be attacked, if it's something else you resolve it's effect. Then you play your hand which has cards for attacking and buying. You attack the villain if you have enough attack and then buy a new hero card depending on how much money you drew. You then put all your cards in your discard pile and draw a new set of cards.

Eventually, you will shuffle your discard pile to make your new deck with your new cards included and that is how the game proceeds until either your team takes out the mastermind or he finishes his scheme. It sounds a little complicated, but anyone that can read and is interested in the Marvel Universe can play this game easily.

So, if you're interested in a game featuring Marvel Heroes I highly recommend Marvel Legendary. It's got a good roster of heroes and villains to start out with and they are releasing expansions for it already to make it even deeper.
