As a deck builder,Marvel Snaphas a unique opportunity to leverage Marvel’s sprawling, ever-growing cast of heroes and villains for card ideas, limited-time events, and rewards in a way that more focused games simply can’t compare. Virtually any Marvel character can find its way into Marvel Snap, and the game has expanded at a steady pace alongside additions to the franchise over its two year run. It’s not just characters that are highlighted inMarvel Snap, either: a growing number of locations ranging from the symbiote homeworld of Klyntar to the Eternals' realm of Olympia are also represented on the board with unique mechanics.
In an interview with Game Rant,Marvel Snapdevelopers spoke about the how the alliance bounty system in particular is another way forMarvel Snapto remain connected to the goings-on ofthe Marvel universe. The developers also suggested that the door is open for experimenting with the bounty system in new ways that might yield special rewards for participating alliance members.
Marvel Snap’s Alliance Bounties Are a Perfect Opportunity to Highlight New Marvel Content
Alliance Bounties are a weekly reward system that encourage members of alliances to pursue various gameplay goals or experiment with different archetypes, and it’s a convenient source of opportunities forMarvel Snapto bring attention to new developments in the Marvel universe. For example, themed bounties could ask players to focus on a particular archetype related toa new Marvel film, or provide similarly themed rewards.
“We wantSnapto feel like a natural extension of everything happening in the Marvel universe. We see Bounty events as a fun way to bring those celebrations intoSnap, and we’re always on the lookout for such opportunities as we plan future content. Bounties follow a weekly cycle, much like other in-game content, though we’re open to experimenting with shorter weekend bonuses. If a thematic reward fits, we’ll do our best to integrate it.”
Recently,Marvel Snapcelebratedthe release ofAgatha All Alongon Disney+ with a Bounty Boost Week, a new concept for the game that provides increased rewards toward earning a new card.The developers say that there’s some potential for more short-term weekend bonuses, though it’s uncertain how those might be implemented or how these weekend rewards might tie in with the broaderMarvelfranchise. Either way, more opportunities for boosted rewards can only be good news for fans of the free to play deck builder, and fans of Venom will certainly want to tune for this month’s season in celebration ofVenom: The Last Dance.
