Last calendar month, Netmarble and Marvel released a(nother) mobile app chosen Curiosity Future Revolution. If yous are a fan of the Marvel movies, you lot're going to be getting a lot of joy out of this game, especially since you can unlock the MCU costumes for the characters. If you're a fan of the Marvel comics? Results may vary. Let's dig in.

Marvel Futurity Revolution starts off with a really strong premise. A multiverse has been discovered. Yay! But they've also discovered that all the Earths are about to collide physically on the same spot. Boo! Hank Pym, a character Marvel seems actually prepare on making usa forget is a terrible person, is in accuse of a machine that will somehow save everyone.

Unfortunately, A.I.Chiliad. is up to their shenanigans and is attempting to salvage the Earths by blowing upwardly the ones in the manner. They steal a yellowish canister that is needed for the machine Hank Pym is using, just they don't tell the states what's in information technology though. Ever. But it'southward okay, 3 M.O.D.O.One thousand.southward are fun.

Every bit the story starts, we accept command of diverse heroes so we tin can get an idea of how each one plays, for the most role. The game starts with Star-Lord and his headset diggings a very free domain guitar loop (which I'grand well-nigh sure is one of the default ones from Garageband).

He does alright and fights some A.I.M. Troopers. His attacks are adequately well thought out and very on-brand. He rocket-boots enemies in the head, fires his blasters and haphazardly throws his grenades about. He'south a corking character to help you learn the bones controls.

Before long after you lot tag outwith Black Widow who, surprisingly, has quite mayhap the widest variety of attacks than anyone else in this game. A game that has Storm in it, who is the next person you play every bit, who also wields a lot of expected weather-based attacks that honestly look actually pretty and really experience powerful. Storm gets saved by Atomic number 26 Man (don't even get me started on that one) and through him and Spider-homo, you get a tutorial of the game's quick-time events. These are really weird considering they'll happen when something actually unsafe is about to occur, like a building falling on someone or a massive assault needing to be executed. What I noticed immediately, mostly because I was taking notes while watching what I idea was a non-interactive cutscene, is that nix happens if you miss it. I missed every quick-time result and anybody was fine.

Subsequently all that, Spider-Man is saved by Helm Marvel and we get to play as her for a moment. This one surprised me considering while I become that she'due south one of the heaviest hitters in the Curiosity Universe, she had to hitting basic A.I.Grand. agents multiple times to take them out. She but didn't feel that strong. I feel like they could accept swapped her out with many other, weaker, characters and this problem would take been fixed.

From in that location the baton gets passed to Physician Strange. I got excited because I really wanted to run into how he played, but the game skips directly over him and instead we get a surprise visit from Captain America. Nosotros become to play as him for a moment thus bringing the tutorial to a close.

So a agglomeration of stuff happens, the machine fails and Vision decides to cede himself, using his density powers to merge the worlds so instead of keeping the Earths safe. As a consequence, we get Plan B which is to let all the worlds merge into one.

This causes one of the biggest questions I have with the game — "how does that piece of work?" Much like the confusion of when a DC character goes to Cleveland or New York despite City and Gotham supposed being there instead; we take moments that take identify in America, merely so moments that have place in Hydramerica (information technology's what you lot think it is). And and so other moments that accept place in other spots that are ALSO supposed to be America with no explanation as to what the landscapes look like. Heck, Age of Apocolypse was a hot mess but at to the lowest degree they gave us a map.

The game is filled with weird, questionable holes like this. For instance, i of the first missions has y'all squaring off against Ultron, and almost exactly like Brainiac in DC Universe Online, he comes in regular Ultrons, spider mech Ultrons, and larger floaty Ultrons with the occasionally more heavily armored Ultron. Just Ultron is introduced every bit a helper to Tony Stark and Hank Pym that you become to witness plow evil. Now…hold up. None of these universes ever heard of Ultron? Because, correct me if I'm incorrect but didn't Ultron build Vision? How does Vision exist if they never heard of Ultron?

Sorry, possibly looking besides into it only information technology kills me considering there's a lot of things similar this that never get explained. So if yous're a casual Marvel fan, this is going to be a lot to accept in. If you're more than coincidental, you're probably going to be trying to fill in plotholes a LOT.

After y'all finish the tutorial you lot become to pick a grapheme to be your main. In that location are eight characters to cull from (Captain America, Captain Marvel, Spider-human being, Black Widow, Iron Human, Doctor Foreign, Star-Lord, and Storm) and you lot get 4 slots to accept characters in. You lot cannot delete a character or articulate a spot when you lot cull, and so make sure it's ane you desire as you accept to pay existent money to be able to unlock the remaining four slots.

When you pick a grapheme, each of the eight has their own tutorial stage and most of them are pretty great with a high point beingness Black Widow. She faces off against a version of the Mitt, led by an astonishing looking evil version of Daredevil who kidnaps orphans and trains them to be the side by side generation of assassins. Captain America invades a Hydra base in Hydramerica to save the Winter Soldier from a comically large Red Skull death trap — a death trap that would make a villain from the Adam West's Batman show blush.

Both times I got really into it because the concept was fairly cool. But every tutorial ends the aforementioned manner. A version of your graphic symbol steps through a portal, donned in a Starktech version of their famous outfit (read: robotic) and tells them they need to come with them because at that place'southward bigger fish to fry. This part is really weird to me because in the instance of Black Widow she leaves the kidnapped children in the Hand base of operations and Captain America frees Winter Soldier but then deadass leaves him behind in the middle of a Hydra base which, I remind you, is Red Skull's personal base in the eye of the country that Red Skull is ruling over.

These stories never get touched on again so if you just assumed "oh, the kids and Bucky have died now" it would all the same mesh with the menstruation of the story because it is SUPER quick to drib ane affair to go onto the next without exploring any ramifications.

Simply those are story issues, how does it play? How does it await and sound? Well, permit'south go on going.
