Hero Deck

There are ﬁfteen different Heroes in the

game. There are fourteen cards for each of

these Heroes. Make the Hero Deck this way:

•

Pick 5 Heroes at random. For each of

those Heroes, add all 14 cards for that

Hero to the Hero Deck. That’s 70 cards

total.

  •Ifyouareplayingwith5players,

add a 6th Hero.

StartingtheGame

•

Shufﬂe the Villain Deck. Put it face-down

on the Villain Deck space.

• ShufetheHeroDeck.Putitface-down

on the Hero Deck space. Flip 5 cards

from the Hero Deck faceup into the 5

Hero Spaces in the HQ.

• Eachplayershufestheirownpersonal

deck and draws a hand of 6 cards from it.

• Chooseaplayertogorst.Playerstake

turns in clockwise order.

OnYourTurn:

On your turn, you do 3 things:

1. Play the top card of the Villain Deck.

2. Play cards from your hand, using

them to recruit and ﬁght.

3. Discard your hand and draw 6 new

cards.

Step1)PlaytheTopCardofthe

Villain Deck

At the beginning of your turn, reveal

the top card of the Villain Deck and play

that card. What you do with that card

depends on what kind of card it is. There

are four kinds of cards in the Villain Deck:

Villains, Bystanders, Scheme Twists, and

Master Strikes.

IftheVillainDeckCardIsaVillain:

That Villain invades the city! Here are the

different parts of a Villain card:

To have the Villain invade the city, here’s

what you do:

Villain Enters the City

Move the new Villain into the city space closest to the Villain Deck. That city space is

labeled “Sewers”. (Villains in the city are always faceup.)

Push Other Villains Forward if Necessary

Each of the 5 city spaces can only hold one Villain. Whenever a Villain enters a city space,

if there’s already another Villain there, that existing Villain gets pushed one space toward

the Escaped Villains pile to make room. So a single Villain entering the city sometimes

causes a chain reaction of several Villains getting pushed forward.

• Remember:OnlypushaVillainforwardifitneedstomovetomakeroomforanother

Villain entering that space.

AVillainMightEscape

If a Villain gets pushed off the ﬁnal, ﬁfth city space, then that Villain “escapes” the city

and goes into the Escaped Villains pile on the game board, faceup. Here’s what happens

when a Villain escapes:

• TheescapingVillainKO’saHerothatcosts

6orlessfromtheHQ.(KOstandsfor 

 “knockedout.”)TheplayerwhoseturnitischooseswhichofthoseHeroesgetsKO’d.

 PutthatHerointotheKOpileonthegameboard,faceup.ImmediatelyipanewHero

from the Hero Deck, faceup, to ﬁll the empty space in the HQ.
