Bring together a team of super heroes and prevent Thanos from ending the world!
The Infinity Stones are scattered throughout the Multiverse. Use their essence to recruit heroes and villains and gain Infinity Points.
Assemble the Avengers, acquire locations and when ready, claim the Infinity Gauntlet!
Pick your tokens carefully, recruit characters to gain Infinity Points and bonuses. These bonuses help you recruit more powerful heroes and acquire locations… until you gather enough characters, power, and Infinity Points to trigger the endgame!
Even though Splendor Marvel uses Splendor’s core rules and high-quality materials, it has a different color structure, a new endgame trigger, and new victory conditions. You can also gain Infinity Points with the Avengers Assemble tile that can be passed from one player to another several times during the game!
If you are keen on Splendor, learning the rules will be easy, but mastering the game may take you a while.
And if you don’t know Splendor, soon you will enjoy its quick and simple rules and become addicted to this game without even realizing it!
Part of the Splendor family — see Splendor for the combined view.
