Marvel: Avengers Alliance was a turn-based social network game developed by Offbeat Creations and published by Playdom on March 1, 2012. It was based on characters and storylines published by Marvel Comics, and written by Alex Irvine. The game was available as an Adobe Flash application via the social-networking website Facebook. It officially launched in Facebook at March 1, 2012. It was initially released as promotion for the 2012 Marvel Studios crossover film The Avengers. It was nominated for Best Social Game on the G4tv.com Video Game Awards 2012, and won.
It was made available on iOS devices on 13 June 2013, and an Android version was also available. On March 20, 2014, it was announced that the servers running on Playdom's official website would be discontinued; however, the game continued to be available via Facebook. Disney shut down the game on September 30, 2016.
The player is a new S.H.I.E.L.D. recruit, dispatched by Nick Fury and Maria Hill. As the game advances, more heroes join the conflict as playable characters.
In the first season, the game revolves around a galactic event called the "The Pulse" hitting Earth. This event released a strange compound called Iso-8. Several villains, villain organizations (consisting of A.I.M., the Brotherhood of Mutants, the Hand, HYDRA, and the Maggia), and extra-dimensional menaces try to take advantage of it leading to a villain alliance called "The Syndicate." It is divided into twelve chapters, each consisting of six missions. The sixth mission of every chapter requires a specific hero to unlock. The season ends with the destruction of the Syndicate, the resurrection of the Red Skull, and a civil war within HYDRA.
