I'm sure you've heard by now that Fantastic Four: First Steps cosmically radiates its way into theaters July 25. Thus, the Fantastic Four are making special appearances in every one of Marvel's near infinite portfolio of games. Today we're talking Marvel Strike Force, a turn-based game from Scopely, who bring us games including WWE Supercard and Monopoly Go.

As somebody who has played the FF in every card game, video game, and collectible miniature game I could get my hands on, I am somehow going to make time for all of these. I can't wait to see the movie, and I can't wait to play all these games. It's Clobberin' Time!
