Marvel Super Dice Game: The X-Men Battle for New York City!
"This game is for anyone who enjoys the marvel comic characters of the X-Men. After becoming a fan of the TV show on Saturday mornings, and having played Dragon Dice, I became very intrigued at what TSR could do with the simple action of comic book characters. Overall, I think they have done a good job.
The target market for the game is those who either read the comics or watch the TV show. I have never really gotten into X-Men comics, but this game is really a lot of fun. The stratgey of the game is not as complex as Dragon Dice, but the ease with which players can start playing is straight forward and quick.

The premise to the game, is that 2 or more players bring a collection of heroes to the table, and be the first person to "capture" or own 4 city blocks. The number of heores, and the number of city blocks in play can vary. To add some randomness to the game, each player also bring some spectator dice used to slow down other groups of heroes.

Each hero has a special power that helps it's side, or hinders others. All dice are 6 sided, and the well thought out rulebook is very straightforward. All in all this is a very easy game to get into, and well worth the money." ...an anonymous Amazon reviewer
