In MARVEL HEROES, each player takes the role of both one super team and also the arch-villain Mastermind that is Nemesis to one of their opponents. Over the course of the game, they will meet allies, foil crimes, fight super villains, and work to further the mysterious aims of their Mastermind.
Two to four players each take the role of one of four super teams: the
Fantastic Four, the Avengers, the X-Men, or the Marvel Knights. Once
teams have been assigned, each player also takes the role of the
Mastermind that is Nemesis to the super team controlled by the player
to their right. The Avengers are opposed by Red Skull, the Fantastic
Four must contend with Dr. Doom, Magneto threatens the peace the X-Men
fight to protect, and the Marvel Knights are constantly at odds with
the Kingpin.
Each game, a scenario is afoot. Apart from influencing gameplay in a variety of ways, the scenarios also set the victory conditions. One game may be won by the first team to defeat Magneto, another by whomever reaches a set number of victory points first. The different scenarios make for a fun, engaging, and replayable game!
