Marvel Trump
Press the MARVEL TRUMP key to enter Marvel Trump game. The computer “deals” 6
random characters to each player 1 and computer or player 2. Remember that only
characters that are already unlocked in the Marvel encyclopaedia can be used in
Marvel Trump.
The cards are dealt in a random order. That means the player and the computer have a
“virtual” stack of cards and after the cards are dealt the order of the cards inside the stack
is fixed. Only the card on top is available for playing.
If Marvel Trump has just been entered then player 1 has the first call, otherwise the winner of the last game has the first
call.
Then the screen shows the character’s name, picture and statistics similarly to the display in the Marvel Database. Use
the UP/DOWN keys to scroll through the information. The statistical information displays 6 criteria for each character:
intelligence, strength, speed, durability, energy projection, and fighting skills. Each criterion is evaluated from 1 to 7, 7
being the highest.
The purpose of the game is to guess which of your character’s criteria can beat the same criteria of your
opponent’s character. Select the criteria using the UP/DOWN keys and confirm with ENTER.
After pressing ENTER, your opponent’s character will be shown and a one-on-on battle will begin.
The computer compares the values of the 2 characters’ criteria and the character with the highest value wins. The card
of the losing character goes to the winner’s stack of cards. It is put to the bottom of the stack of cards together with the
card that the winner played.
Then, a screen indicates the number of cards each player has.
If the value of the two characters’ criterion is equal; there is a draw. None of the two players gets the 2 cards. They can
be won in the next round and are “put aside” for the moment. The player who called the values during the draw calls the
next value. The player who wins this fight gets 4 cards. If there is another draw in this round, the players fight for 6 cards
and so on.
In case both players end up with 0 cards (only possible if both player have 6 cards on hand and then play a draw 6 times
in a row) then a new game starts.
Win the game by getting all of your opponent’s cards.
