About the game

What you do in a play session

Marvel United: Witching Hour arrives as a special promo box that super‑charges the cooperative Marvel United experience. It adds two brand‑new figures: Agatha Harkness, stepping in as an anti‑hero, and Scarlet Witch, debuting as the first solo villain for the game. The box also bundles four alternate Hero decks that were previously limited‑edition convention exclusives – Grey Hulk, Juggernaut, Mister Sinister and Deadpool (X‑Force). Each deck includes the original miniatures repainted in their proper colors, and the backs of the cards are stamped "2nd Printing" to set them apart from the convention runs. All core mechanics stay intact – modular board, hand management, variable player powers – but now groups of 1‑5 can mix standard and alternate heroes for fresh strategies. Scarlet Witch operates as a villain‑controlled deck, giving solo players a well‑balanced challenge. A typical game runs about 40 minutes, with straightforward rules that welcome newcomers while still offering depth for seasoned players who love tinkering with character combos. The light weight (2/5) ensures quick, snappy sessions, and the cute chibi artwork adds a friendly vibe. In short, Witching Hour delivers thematic flair and new play options without complicating the original system, making it a perfect add‑on for existing owners and a great entry point for newcomers to the Marvel United universe.
