Sentinels of the Multiverse
A Co-operative Super Hero card game, where the (2-5) players work together to defeat a single Super Villain and his minions.
I took a chance and bought this solely on the recommendation of a certain unnamed game store owning friend of mine.
Thank you Gary.
doh.
The base game comes with 10 Heroes, 4 Villains and 4 Environments.
The expansion (hell yes I bought it!) adds 2 Heroes, 4 Villains and 2 Environments.
These can be mixed and matched to create hundreds of unique (or at least different) play experiences.
This game is challenging. We lost the first few battles while trying to get the hang of it. It also scales beyond the 5 player limit with the Rook City expansion. We played a 7 player game last night that kicked serious a$$!
Adam Rebottaro's artwork is fun and strongly anchored in the comic book genre.
If you like a unique game with unusual mechanics. Buy it.
If you like quality co-op games and struggle finding one. Buy it.
If you like being a Super Hero. Buy it.
If you like being told what to do. Buy it.
j/k
It is rather good.

It also has a new (and awesome) expansion coming out. Currently it's on Kickstarter at Shattered Timelines. Already funded (in 4.5 hours!!) go and support anyway if you like cooperative games, superheroes or, especially, cooperative superhero games.
