    Fun for casual gaming but supremely frustrating if you're serious about climbing the ranks to Infinity. You can go on a crazy win streak followed by a crazier losing streak. The song "Build Me Up Buttercup" pretty much summarises what I feel about this game.

The song "Build Me Up Buttercup" pretty much summarises what I feel about this game.

    As a Marvel fan, I find it fun to see characters I've never seen before in the comics but use often in the game. I then read up on them on Marvel Unlimited which makes both game and comic services complementary of each other.

    However, after 2-3 months of seriously playing this game, the frustration is real. I just am very suspect at the matchmaking algorithm, both when I'm on winning and losing streaks. It feels like there's a hidden hand behind players' decks that match up specific builds to tailor to either a winning or losing outcome for players. I may be wrong but that's what i feel.

    TLDR; play this for fun and ONLY when missions are available. Don't bother with seriously climbing the ranks. The frustration is not worth it.    … Expand

    Marvel's Galactus Game.

    Try to guess where your opponent will play Galactus while you place cards that won't effect the outcome of the game.

    Decent game but no way to change the email attached to my account. Now all my seasons completed, money and time spent, down the drain since i don't have access to that email anymore.

    é um jogo extremamente casual, tipo retardado mesmo, partidas ridiculamente rapídas sem apêgo sentimental nenhum as cartas ou as estrategias.

    Monetization feels very greedy, with pretty much everything wildly overpriced. Card balance isn't good at all. A lot of cheaters. Boring.

    I bought some in game purchases. Then it turned out I could not cross play between phone and PC . Then the game crashed, I can not log inn.

    Absolute piece of garbage game with horrendous monetisation. If it wasn’t for the marvel brand, this trash would have gotten as much attention as it deserves: none.

    Marvel Snap is an online collectable card game in which players use a deck of twelve cards (each featuring Marvel characters) in order to win at least two of the three locations.

    Marvel Snap really is an addition to the game library of your mobile devices!

    Pros:
    - Fast pace and short gameplay loop
    - Card designs
    - Collecting cards

    I'm not a massive fan on the Marvel franchise, but in terms of TBS games Marvel Snap is superb. It's a great pick up and go fast pace mobile game that builds upon the traditional "snap" card game.

    I underestimated it as a game I admit, but I must say that it is a game that deserves it. I am not a fan of strategic card games, but Marvel Snap goes "against" all that.

The other strong point is that the games are really simple and last a maximum of 3-4 minutes, no more, which allows you to enjoy the game in a more varied way. Being a free-to-play game the shop rightly exists, but what it offers does not affect the strength of one's own or the opponent's deck, perhaps the only advantage to shopping is to have the aesthetically coolest cards, and the ability to unlock them before others, but one can win just fine without having to rush. The game for now is steady with updates, neither running too much nor too little. I recommend it to splurge on those 3-4 minutes of free time you may have!… Expand

    It's fast, its fun, it's different. I like the artwork and the way every hero card is related to the powers of the hero it describes. I also liked the synnergy concept of cards that makes you feel like heroes group up to win a location and this is a core element of Marvel's battle concept.

The only downside that I’ve seen with this game is that once you’ve completed all of the challenges there is not a way to earn more battle pass XP without spending gold (the premium currency) to unlock more challenges. Overall, I really appreciate how easy it is to get started and the fact that this game is NOT pay to win.… Expand

    Great game, short matches, huge fun and free to pay. The batlle pass accelerate the collection a bit but it is not required to play and win. The variety of cards and locations is making the game interesting and different every day. The game looks great in mobile devices. It is pending to develop the PC UI

    Excellent card game based on Marvel superheroes. A real treat for fans, extremely simple and intuitive gameplay. The matches don't last long, it's true, but as far as I'm concerned this is an advantage. The progression system that allows you to collect all the cards and their variations is very beautiful and stimulating.
