Thor: The Dark World offers an interactive 3D superhero adventure that serves as a virtual accompaniment to the major 2013 Marvel Comics theatrical release.

An iconic Marvel Studios production turns digital in the riveting action title from Gameloft known as Thor: The Dark World. This electrifying Android title presents players with over 90 distinct missions across the Nordic Nine Worlds.

Each of the seven Asgardian warrior types may be summoned during your quest, and they will lend their powers to help defeat a variety of nefarious foes. There is a loaded cast in this game; in fact, key appearances include Odin, Sif, Malekith, Kurse, Loki, Mangog, Ymir, Volstagg, Hogun, Fandral and Beta Ray Bill. The exciting RPG aesthetic is bolstered by eye-popping sci-fi designs that are faithful to the source material.

All motion in this game relies on touch-to-move mechanics, so navigation can be conducted via a single click. Similarly, most attacks utilize touchscreen input with taps being employed for regular combat and swipes being deployed for power-ups. Additionally, your Asgardian cohorts can be quickly commanded using on-screen options.

Thor: The Dark World carries graphics befitting a cinematic blockbuster, and the glorious soundtrack is equally epic. The amazing 3D rendering boldly captures the magic of its Hollywood counterpart, and maps are filled with hidden gems that will appeal to hardcore comic fans. For example, the metal ore known as Uru plays a significant role in this release’s narrative.

The free-to-play foundation in this game ultimately involves a lot of repetitive grinding to level up, and achievements that take forever to unlock traditionally can be purchased from the in-game store within seconds; however, this economic barrier seems to be a trademark of all mobile superhero adaptations, so it's not unique to the Thor series.
