Superhero boardgame?


Card & Board Games


I've heard actual, off-line rumors about a Marvel superhero game that sounds like RISK, to an extent.

Apparently, player EACH play a villain and a hero. You try to conquer the world with your villain while attempting to disrupt your opponent's attempts to do the same.

Has Undefeated published anything on this and I keep skipping over it?

Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Any internet sites out there for game, if it exists?


You might try looking on boardgamegeek.com. Another new superhero game that I'm really excited about is Capes & Cowls: Adventures in Wyrd City. It's due out in October, and I can hardly wait.

Scarab Sages

I saw a marvel board game at Gen Con this year by the same makers as The fury of dracula and the game of thrones board games.

One superhero game I like a lot is Strange Synergy, where each player (2-4 players, four is most fun) has three heroes playing "catch a flag" (or whatever name of that game is in English, getting your team flag from opponent and bringing it to your home base). Powers of the heroes are determined with cards, each team gets nine cards which are then assigned to heroes, three for each...and yes, ubercombinations are a possibility. Then they go to this arena and beat up each other.


Finally scored a copy of Capes & Cowls (Adventures in Wyrd City), and it really is a rockin' game. It's got a very classic-comics feel to it, with lots of cool characters to choose from. Fun stuff!
