Read the full game description
Marvel: Age of Heroes is a competitive strategy game in which each player commands a pair of X-Men. Heroes gather resources, recruit allies, and develop asymmetric powers at the Institute before boarding the X-Jet for scenario-specific missions. The Mission phase tests the skills and resources accumulated during worker placement, whether a team is confronting villains alone or combining forces for a stronger strike. Three scenarios change the Institute deck and the threats in play, while evolution cards add new abilities and scoring conditions to each team.
