In Disney Villainous<\/a> (not to be confused with Marvel Villainous<\/a>), you take on the role of a Disney villain. Each villain gets his\/her own player board and decks of both villain and fate cards. The villain deck contains the abilities, tools, henchmen, and allies that will help you plan and scheme your way to victory. The fate deck, controlled by your opponents, unleashes meddling heroes and do-gooders that will make things harder for you. The goal is to be the first villain to fulfill your unique victory conditions.<\/p>\n

While the game as a base rule set, each villain has different abilities, gameplay mechanics, and victory conditions (these are explained in separate villain guides). That makes gameplay a little more exciting; by playing a different villain each time, the gameplay provides a fresh experience. And, just because something seems either easy or hard doesn\u2019t necessarily mean that it is. The gameplay is very balanced.<\/p>\n

Each faction (villains, heroes, allies, etc.) is contained within its own world or realm. So, characters from one film franchise will never interact with characters from another film franchise. Maleficent will never have to deal with Peter Pan and the Lost Boys, etcetera. And, each villain’s storyline is tightly integrated into the game.<\/p>\n

Disney Villainous has a base game as well as several expansions. At the time of this writing, there are a total of 18 playable villains!<\/p>\n

Although the game is designed for 2-6 players, it is generally best played with 3 or 4. Or, you can use our unofficial solo play rules<\/a> to play by yourself.<\/p>\n
