Description

Super Heroes gather, the clock has struck midnight and Cardtropolis is under attack! Led by fearsome bosses like The Machine and Penny 2020, 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!

As a player, you have the task of capturing the city's most powerful Super Villains. Capture them outright by using Super Heroes and Sidekicks or by revealing the Crook when solving a mystery. But keeping your captured Super Villains from the clutches of other players will be a challenge. Once all Super Villains are captured, the player or team with the most Super Villain Power Levels wins the game!

Play Cardtropolis as FREE FOR ALL, which is a player vs. player session or multiple players competing against each other. In addition, you can play in TEAM mode. This is a 2-person vs. 2-person game played collaboratively. Teammates play cooperatively with each other to defeat the other team.
