Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers before you buy
Do I need the base Marvel United game to play this expansion?
Yes, absolutely! This is an expansion, so you'll need the Marvel United base game to use the Fantastic Four components and rules.
How many players can participate?
Just like the base game, this expansion is for 1 to 5 players, maintaining the cooperative or solo experience.
Does the game get much harder with this expansion?
The difficulty can vary depending on the villain and the heroes chosen, but the Fantastic Four present interesting challenges that require good teamwork. The overall complexity remains similar to the base game.
What components come in this box?
You'll find new hero miniatures (Fantastic Four and Silver Surfer), new hero cards, new villain cards (Doctor Doom), and new scenarios/locations to play.
Is prior knowledge of the Fantastic Four necessary?
It's not required, but it helps to appreciate the references and the personalities of the heroes and villains more. The game is fully playable even without knowing the comic book characters.
Is there language dependency?
