Marvel: Age of Heroes is a strategic board game where players command pairs of X-Men to defeat villains and complete missions. Featuring 36 acrylic hero pawns and a variety of game components, it offers an engaging experience for 2-5 players, with a playtime of 60-90 minutes, making it perfect for both casual and dedicated gamers.

From the same designer as the classic Lords of Waterdeep, this game is a worker placement based mostly on a refined system of Waterdeep. But whereas Waterdeep felt like a really bland game of collecting cubes, Age of Heroes is dripping with X-Men lore.From the Xavier Institute, to iconic villains new and old, to allies and team ups that help your cause; every card, every component and every mechanic in game evoke X-Men stories throughout the generations.Some people think there is a disconnect between the game being competitive and the X-Men theme. But I disagree. Many times in comics, various factions of the X-Men have had differing ideological and philosophical world views and have been opposed to each other indirectly, and the game reflects this schism.The game can be quite long, but the publisher has printed scenario options in their website to speed up gameplay.All in all, I highly recommend this game for a mid complexity game that can either be played by casuals looking for a (doable) challenge and euro gamers who enjoy worker placement.
