Product Description: "The heroes of the Marvel? universe come to life in MARVEL HEROES: the Board Game! Thwarting robberies, solving mysteries, and rescuing citizens from danger are all in a day's work for members of the Avengers, the Fantastic Four, the X-Men, and the Marvel Knights ... unless there's a super villain involved! In MARVEL HEROES, 2-4 players each take on the role of a popular super-team straight from the pages of Marvel comics, including such well-known heroes as Spider-Man, Wolverine, Captain America, and the Fantastic Four. Simultaneously, they take the role of an evil Mastermind, whether it's the Kingpin of Crime, Dr. Doom, the Red Skull, or the mutant terrorist Magneto. They will fight crime and progress their story as super heroes, and work to complete their villainous plans as Masterminds, all competing to be the most successful at both tasks. The action unfolds in New York City, on an impressively detailed and accuratemap depicting Manhattan Island as well as Brooklyn and Queens. Players will respond to dangerous and crimnal events, represented by Headlines, that crop up across the city, sending members of their super hero team to rescue citizens, fight crime, and battle super villains. Meanwhile, the dastardly Masterminds work to their own purposes - and especially to defeat their Nemesis super-team!"

There is a lot to learn in order to play this game, however, it's well worth it for any Marvel fan. It was made with true continuity to the Marvel comics and features scenarios (like "House of M", "Onslaught") reminiscent of great titles. It also offers a plethora of Heroes and Villians to use and battle against. If you play with three other people you get more "Kapows" and "Booms" for your buck. One one one is also good, however.

I'm a big fan of board games, and when I saw Fantasy Flight was doing a Marvel game, I was more than excited. The game had been delayed, and the wait was long. Finally, I received the game as a Christmas gift. Was the wait worth it?
First, let's talk about the components. The plastic figurines are, for the most part, well sculpted. Plus, they're painted (not seen often enough in board games). I'd say they're on par with the better looking Heroclix. Some are better than others ... Read More
