Play OverviewPlay Overview

Marvel Battleworld (2020) is a battle game where you are Marvel heroes fighting to save the world from evil. You play by rolling dice and using special abilities to defeat enemies. It is part superhero figure collection, part dice-rolling battle game, where you must combine good choices with lucky dice rolls to win.

You play as a Marvel superhero, fighting an ever-growing army of enemies. You need to combine a good choice of hero with the right enemy to battle and some lucky dice rolls to win. You choose a Superhero figure and matching Vital Stats card, then roll to determine your attack hoping to be higher than your enemies defence. Do this three times and you win that battle or your opponent wins.

As you progress, more enemies appear so you must work quickly and use your hero's abilities wisely. Win the special Thanos battles and you can add new heroes from your collection to get more attacks and more abilities at your disposal.

The result is a game that is part battle, part superhero figure collection. The more figures you collect, the more options for play you have. It is a simple-to-play game, which makes it very accessible for younger players.

6+ year-olds usually have the required skill to enjoy this game. Younger players need to understand the superhero's statistics and how they match up against enemies. However, due to the nature of this game, they could be supported to learn by an older player.

We rate this suitable for 3+ years-olds. This game features superheroes, villains and battling, but none of this is presented in a gratuitous way.
