"Marvel’s "Super Hero Squad" for the DS is a completely different experience than on the other console versions. There’s a definite emphasis on presentation and visuals on the other versions of the game, but gameplay sometimes suffers because it’s basically just a button mashing game. On the DS version of the game the presentation is more than awful, with the menus all being unsightly and the sound being kind of bad too. The graphics aren’t that bad but the character models could have been done slightly better.

The gameplay on "Super Hero Squad" for the DS is a great experience however. The controls are easy to pick up but they’re not button mashing controls. Here a big part of what you’re doing is popping up your rival in the game so you can put more damage to your opponent. It’s not a tricky system, but it’s not an easy one either. Most DS games are easy for kids to pick up and play. That’s why the system has so much charm when it comes to games for little kids. This game isn’t any different. They should be able to pick up and play right away.

There’s a lot of potential for this game to be great in the future. There will be a sequel to this game in the future judging by the TV Show’s growing popularity. The follow-up will hopefully be more of a finished product than this one is. Even though the game isn’t as good as it could be, it’s still something young fans of the show will enjoy and get into.
