Hey, it's my first game for a video game, so I might as well do the best series of all time. Seeing as this is a franchise older than I am, and has been reinventing itself for decades on half a dozen consoles I've decided to put more of an emphasis from tropes from the 64 games onward.

Marvel Movies

Ah a new endeavor, and I figure why not start ambitiously and try and make a drinking game out of the most successful franchise in movie history. Okay, it's really like 7 or 8 franchises glued together, and features dozens of characters, and movies with differing genres and tone. Oh well, I'm gonna try and make some umbrella rules which will hopefully apply to enough of them that watching any of the Marvel movies* and playing this will get you good 'n drunk!

Drink when/for:

To start things off drink through the Marvel Studios logo

*So this is a game designed for the Marvel Cinematic Universe specifically, so don't play this if your planning on watching Punisher: War Zone, or Ang Lee's shitty Hulk movie. As for if this applies to Marvel's TV shows, well television is a very different animal and this set of rules wasn't really designed with TV in mind but... sure, however your results may vary (as in you'll get wasted watching S.H.I.E.L.D. but be pretty sober for Daredevil.)

See you next time...
