5.0 out of 5 stars Great Addition to the Heroscape Line, September 22, 2007

This review is from: Hasbro Heroscape Marvel Game Set (Toy)

I've become a big fan of Heroscape over the past few years, and I'm consistently impressed by the quality of the product, as well as the creative new additions to the line. Heroscape is billed as a "Build and Battle" game system - it consists of many kinds of interlocking plastic tiles of varying sizes representing different kinds of terrain. Figures representing heroes and squads from different eras and different genres (sci-fi, fantasy, horror, action movies, etc.) do battle on this terrain in a game that is both extremely fun and very easy to learn (and get sucked into). Heroscape: Marvel is the latest additon to this ever-expanding miniatures game, and is a worthy addition at that.

Heroscape: Marvel includes everything you'll need to play a Heroscape game right out of the box: terrain (representing grass, asphault, and concrete), a two-story ruin, dice, numerous kinds of markers, 10 Marvel Comics pre-painted figures (very nicely done and very sturdy), and 10 game cards outlining what powers each figure has. The game is also accompanied by an illustrated full-color, detailed and easy-to-learn rulebook. The 10 playable characters in the game are: Spider-Man, Captain America, Silver Surfer, Iron Man, The Hulk, Thanos, Red Skull, Venom, Dr. Doom, and The Abomination.

As an avid Heroscape player, I have to say that this is one of the most ingenious expansions of the game thus far - adding in the Marvel characters will add a whole new dimension to the game - although, beware: the included figures look exceptionally powerful. This game is completely integrated into the pre-existing Heroscape format, so if you already have Heroscape sets, you'll be able to bring this set in seemlessly. If you're completely new to the game, this is a perfect place to start. You'll be amazed by the quality and the hours of fun that Heroscape will bring to people of all ages. Highly recommended; designed for children 8 and up.

My son already had the original Heroscape set,but he loves Marvel superheroes, so when we saw this, we just had to get it for him.It can be used seperately, or put together with the original, for extremely expanded play.The pieces are sturdy, and durable,the set up is amazing,and the characters really look like the superheroes and villains they're supposed to be.My son absolutely loves it.As a matter of fact, I think it was his favorite gift this Yule.

The Marvel Set does not intergrate well with the other sets. The heroes in Marvel are more powerful and have a much higher point value. My fellow gamers and I like to combine all our characters when we play games. We do not use the Marvel characters because they just don't fit in with the rest.
