The Good

• Turn-based battle system - You get to control the actions of all the characters in your team. This gives you the flexibility to select which skills you want to use and strategize. I'm an RPG gamer so I like the turn-based battle system. If you prefer a more fighter or action game then Marvel Strike Force might not be for you. Instead, you can check out Marvel Contest of Champions for your fighting game fix.

Marvel Strike Force features a turn-based battle system

• Auto Battle - Like most mobile games, there is an Auto Battle feature so you can breeze through the lower level quests and easier Arena or Blitz battles if you like. It's also great for you multitasking people out there! You can also Auto Win quests that you have completed before so you don't have to keep playing through the quests to farm materials and shards.

• Lots of game modes - Marvel Strike Force has a lot of different modes that will keep you busy for a while. These include Campaign, Arena, Blitz, Challenges, Alliance Raids, and Events.

• New and updated content - There is always something new in Marvel Strike Force and the game tries to stay updated with the latest Marvel happenings. They released Wasp during the time when the Ant-Man And The Wasp movie was being released and they just released Venom as a new playable character in anticipation of the Venom movie. They even have characters from the Marvel comics, like the latest Kamala Khan Ms. Marvel.

The Bad

• Obtaining and ranking up characters - It's hard to obtain and rank up characters, especially the popular ones like Iron Man and Thor. A lot of popular characters are only available during events and they are not easy to collect. This game isn't like those gacha-style games where you spend gems or coins to "summon" or "pull" a character. In Marvel Strike Force, you get characters by collecting character shards so one pull will not guarantee you a character. Take note that the drop rates are really low here so prepare to spend a lot of time farming for characters.

• Alliance Raids - I'm not a big fan of the Alliance Raid because it's very hard to earn Alliance Credits without a decent and active Alliance. If you're part of an active Alliance then you'll get to enjoy this mode more. Thor is probably the main reason why you would want to play this mode. Aside from spending Power Cores (kind of like the "gems" equivalent of Marvel Strike Force), Thor can only be obtained through Raid Orbs and spending Raid Credits.

The Judger's Ruling: 4 out of 5 ★★★★☆

Marvel Strike Force is a great and enjoyable mobile game for anyone looking for a turn-based and more strategic Marvel mobile game. The turn-based battle system is one of the great things about this game. Marvel Strike Force also has a lot of characters available but getting those characters will take a lot of effort and time. This game can keep you busy with its different game modes but you can also make use of its auto battle feature and multitask doing other things. If you like turn-based games and are into putting effort into collecting your favorite Marvel characters and ranking them up then Marvel Strike Force is definitely the game for you!
