From the publisher

In Marvel United, you take the role of iconic Marvel Heroes cooperating to stop the master plan of a powerful Villain controlled by the game. Each Villain unveils their unique master plan, with cards that trigger different effects, and threats that pose challenges across the locations. Heroes must choose carefully the cards to play from their unique decks, that not only offer different actions and superpowers to use, but also combine with the actions of other Heroes to do the impossible. Build your storyline, unite your powers, save the day!

You’ll build a Storyline by drawing the Villain’s cards and playing your own Hero cards to counter the Villain’s schemes. Your cards allow you to move your Hero around, rescue Civilians, defeat Thugs, clear Threats, and use your Hero’s unique powers. Heroes can unite their abilities to act as the perfect team.

Meanwhile, the Villain will roam the city, weaving their plan, spreading chaos, deploying Henchmen, and attacking the Heroes. Only after accomplishing the necessary Missions will the Heroes be ready to directly attack the Villain and take them down for good! Once all Health is removed from the Villain, the Villain is defeated and the Heroes win the game!
