Cardtropolis

Cardtropolis

2019

2 - 5 players
20 - 30 min

From BoardGameGeek

Super Heroes gather, the clock has struck midnight and Cardtropolis is under attack! Led by fearsome bosses like Penny 2020, Sister Blister, and The Machine, these Super-Villains along with their loyal Minions are taking over midtown. The citizens' hopes rest with you. Your task is to use Super Heroes, Sidekicks, and Specials to capture all of the Super-Villains, Minions, and a Crook or two along the way. The safety of Cardtropolis is in your hands! This turn-based card game can be played as free-for-all between opposing players or in team vs. team mode where players cooperate with their teammate to outwit and outplay the other team. Each turn you must decide to capture a weak Super Villain immediately with a low power Superhero or wait for the right card to do a Team-Up or a Power-Up play and capture a more powerful Super Villain. But keep an eye on your captured Super-Villains because players can use a Special and steal them away!
