Story & Themes
Disney Infinity: Marvel Super Heroes has three different storylines depending on which Playset is being used. In the standard Avengers Playset, Loki and fellow villain MODOK concoct a plan to freeze New York City with a device called the Casket of Ancient Winters. As a superhero, the player's goal is to defeat them.
In the Guardians of the Galaxy Playset, Ronan the Accuser is the main antagonist. He follows the Guardians to a planet called Knowhere after they steal the Infinity Stone from him. The Guardians then focus on protecting the planet from Ronan's attacks until they can eventually face him in battle.
In the Spider-Man Playset, players must face off against the Green Goblin and Mysterio. These two villains are intent on starting a symbiote (a type of sentient alien) invasion by cloning Venom, and it is up to the player to stop them.
Save Points
After completion of the first mission, the game will autosave periodically and can also be manually saved from the pause menu.
Difficulty
The game has a robust tutorial system and four different difficulty modes to ease new or young players into the experience.
Heads Up!
Violence Fighting in Disney Infinity 2.0 is cartoon-ish and mostly of the kicking/punching variety. Occasionally, players will use weapons, but no blood is shown. Additionally, players can lose health but they will never actually die.
Consumerism In order to play the game, you need to have purchased at least a few of the figurines. However, the game heavily encourages players to continue collecting more figurines in order to experience additional content and fill their Hall of Heroes.
Online Community
In Toy Box mode, people can play with their friends' toys through online multiplayer. Players can also share their creations with the larger community and explore the creations of others in turn, and possibly be exposed to inappropriate content as a result.
