About this deal

For this Marvel version, I wish that there was a bit more of the theme put into the win conditions. Rather than just having someone win automatically, it would be great if players were given one final chance to stop them. For instance, Thanos wins the moment he collects all infinity stones. I wish that rather than an instant win, he would have to make it to his next turn where he would then have to “snap” to win. These include 11 total Heroes (Captain America Sam Wilson, Captain Marvel Avenger, Spider-Man Miles Morales, Winter Soldier, Spider-Woman Jessica Drew, Ghost-Spider, Spider-Man Friendly Neighborhood, Ms. Marvel Kamala Khan, Doctor Strange, Silk, Daredevil Man Without Fear), and 4 Events (End of Time, Spider-Verse, This is Our City, Mysteries of the Mystic Arts.)

Each player takes the role of a different Marvel Villain. Each Villain has a different Objective they are trying to achieve. Each turn, players move their Villain Mover to a location on their board and perform actions that are available there. As soon as a player has fulfilled their Villain's Objective, the game ends and that player wins. Includes Scar ( The Lion King), Yzma ( The Emperor’s New Groove), and Ratigan ( The Great Mouse Detective)

Marvel Villainous is an asymmetrical hand management game where players will each take on the role of a different Marvel villain. Each villain has their own unique win conditions and card abilities. Players will attempt to utilize their hand to fulfill their objective(s) and win the game. How do you play?

Throughout the storied history of Marvel, there have been multiple incarnations of organizations with their sights set on besting Earth’s best and brightest. Here’s a rundown of some notable institutions of evil! THE HELLFIRE CLUBCaptain Hook ( I2E) • Jafar • Maleficent ( I2E)• Prince John ( I2E) • Queen of Hearts • Ursula ( I2E) Each game of Marvel Villainous will involve shuffling 15 Common Fate cards together with the 11 Unique Fate cards from each Villain in the current game. Includes the Evil Queen ( Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs), Hades ( Hercules), and Dr. Facilier ( The Princess and the Frog) It’s no secret that we are big fans of Marvel heroes in our household. In this review, we find out if that fandom extends from heroes to villains and let you know if Marvel Villainous lived up to our expectations. What is Marvel Villainous? Taskmaster’s Objective is the good kind of difficult—get four Allies with total Strength of 5 or more at any location, in your own domain or anyone else’s.

The Best Sitcoms on Netflix Right Now (October 2023) By Garrett Martin and Paste Staff October 20, 2023 | 12:00pm I am sure I saw The Great Mouse Detective as a kid, probably more than once, but I don’t remember Ratigan, and don’t care for the way his Objective works—if you play the card The Robot Queen but another player manages to discard it from your realm, your entire Objective changes.

I’d recommend passing on Marvel Villainous (or Disney Villainous) for kids any younger than 12 or 13.

Cruella’s Objective makes sense, and she’s probably one of the tougher ones to play, but why does she only need to capture 99 puppies instead of 101? Final example I’ll give of this here: Thanos has to collect all of the Infinity Stones to win. To do so, you often have to first place them in another players’ domain to then send out one of his allies to collect it. This seems straight forward and when we first played Thanos we thought we understood it well enough. Then, while looking up a rule for another character, we discovered that you can only give one Infinity Stone to an ally in an opponent’s domain. (Rules explained in this fan made FAQ.) While the rulebook has details for how to attach a stone to an ally, it never once mentions that an ally can only control one Infinity Stone. Again, this seems like a very large rule to have missed including. The player pawns look nice in play and feel great in hand. We also really enjoy the illustrations for each character and their cards.

Certain cards with cause a player to place either (a) +1 Strength token(s) or -1 Strength token(s) onto a character. These tokens will be taken from the Vault, and placed on the appropriate character's card. Easy to understand instructions - Each of the villains has their own guide, and these guides will inspire you with strategies and tips for crafting the most successful plan to win!
