Munchkin Marvel Edition, 120 months to 1188 months

The thematics of this game fit exceptionally well within the Marvel universe. One might expect that players assume the role of classic heroes such as Iron Man or Captain America, however the prose of this specific Munchkin game seems to focus on the players building up their own, unique heroes from some generic, predetermined classes, represented by oversized character cards. These dual-sided character cards, in addition to displaying the passive and active skills inherent to that card's role, also contain nifty level markings, which can be marked by the transparent markers included with the game.Classic heroes can be acquired as allies, and the player can also ally themselves with various factions that replace the classic class/race cards. The game also includes the unique addition of Powers cards, which are executed very smartly. Every Powers card is ranked from 1-4; players can equip as many powers as their level can hold. For example, a level one player can equip one level one power. A level two might equip one level two Powers card, or two level ones. Apart from that, the cards in this game seem to contain many more variables, which leads to more exciting, engaging playsessions. A very welcomed addition to the Munchkin franchise; I'll be waiting eagerly for this game's two expansions to release later this year - specifically the Guardians of the Galaxy expansion.

If you love Marvel Superheroes or card games with Take-That and competitive games, get this. It's super fun and if you have a good set of freinds you can play this multiple times and always have it turn out differently. If you ever get lucky enough to get a good set of cards to "build" a super hero you know, like spider-man, then you're going to be super strong. It's so much fun because suddenly someone can play a cards that humbles you. The rules are super simple with every now and then some combination of cards or loosely written text that makes you question the rules or effects of the card but the bickering that comes with it is so fun in my opinion. You also get a really cool custom die.

Great game, easy to learn after playing through a round. Once you know how the game works, the intensity heightens in both competition and fun. It’s an easy game to also show new people how to play, doesn’t take hours to teach. Keeps everyone entertained with the fun design of cards and gameplay. Definitely a worth while buy for any family game night, or just among friends.

This game is a ton of fun. It's a pretty typical Munchkin game that's re-skinned with Marvel characters, but it definitely has that Marvel charm to it. The most difficult thing is to explain the rules to someone new, as there's a lot to take in, but after a round or two it becomes simple.There are some really overpowered cards in the deck, so be prepared for some person to more than double their power at any given time. There are also a few cards that break the forth wall. For example, there's an Electro boss card that gives him extra power based on the amount of electronic devices on the game table...so, it could be fun to stash a bunch of extra ones before playing to make him really powerful. If you were evil, that is.I look forward to purchasing the add-ons for this one!

It’s a great and fun game I just wish the creator would make the expansion pack available again. But I guess legal reasons would get in the way of that

The power cards were a little confusing at first to some that have played other munchkin but ass humans we adapted and moved forward within a minute. That being said, the art is off the charts amazing. The cards that the humans play are not the heros, they are an AGENT OF SHEILD. the heros can only be allies (like thor who is +4). Some of the cards are just plain mean and total game changers. I love it. So much tension, so much chaos, so much of the betrayal. Can't wait for the expansions. I don't play this often, and maybe thats why its so much fun (maybe 3 or 4 rounds every 2 weeks for a guys night type of deal). Good games with good friends equals great success. Maybe a rainy day game that your family can play. Get this for you and your crew today!

I have been a fan of Munchkin for some time now and this expansion is no different. It is wacky, fun, oh so entertaining.I have recently begun teaching my kids how to play and even my 5 year old daughter has gotten into the action. It is great in the respect that it teaches critical thinking and strategy. It is also one of the few ways I can get my 10 year old son to actually read, and given the diversity of the cards, it is not always a simple read.In all, the game really is excellent, and I would recommend it to anyone who wants a game that does not take itself too seriously and always makes for a good time.

Never played before but completely obsessed with getting everyone known to the munchkin games. This game is strategic and keeps you on edge.
