About the game
Ever wondered what it's like to be on the dark side of the force? Marvel Villainous: Mischief & Malice is the perfect way to find out! This title works as a standalone 'expandalone' or as a way to spice up your existing Infinite Power base game. Instead of playing as the hero saving the day, you step into the shoes of iconic villains aiming to dominate the scene. Each villain brings a unique flavor to the chaos: Loki focuses on accumulating and spending 'Mischief', Madame Masque aims to defeat eight Marvel heroes, and M.O.D.K. is on a mission to activate the mighty Cosmic Cube.

The gameplay is fast-paced and strategic, centered around managing your actions and resources with precision. You'll navigate through different domains, execute calculated moves, and throw unexpected twists of fate at your opponents to keep them on their toes. What makes this game stand out is its versatility; it's a complete experience on its own, yet it integrates seamlessly with the Infinite Power base game to escalate the fun. With mechanics like action points and hand management, every decision matters, especially as you balance your villainous schemes against the unpredictable events that pop up. If you're a Marvel fan who wants to test your strategic prowess and see if you have what it takes to be a true mastermind of evil, this is the game for you!
