Villainous : The world of villains at the heart of the game
Villainous is an asymmetrical clash game released in 2018 that has quickly become a classic with a plethora of games to choose from. Published by Ravensburger and designed by Prospero Hall, it has been enthusiastically received by both an initiated and family audience.
In Villainous, you play as Disney Villains who seek to defeat their classic antagonists and take on their rivals from other films.
Villainous is based on asymmetrical characters who must each complete their objectives before the others, even if it means getting in the way of their opponents! Each character has his own deck of cards and a unique board, giving him a different way of playing from all the other characters.
This asymmetry offers unparalleled tactical depth and replayability, making Villainous an exciting game. Combine this with the fascinating aura of our familiar heroes, and you've got an addictive game!

Villainous extensions
Following the huge success of Villainous, a number of boxes have been created featuring new characters.
Most of these boxes feature at least 2 Disney villains, so that everyone can pay tribute to their favourite villain, or find a game mechanic that suits them!
Variants: Villainous Marvel and Villainous Star Wars
In addition to the base game and its expansions, the Villainouss universe has been expanded with two independent, non-compatible series that retain the essence of the series. The principle is still the same: play as a memorable villain and put his evil plans into action!
- Villainous Marvel plunges you into the world of superheroes... and super-villains! With an expansion pack, it plunges you into the world of Marvel films and comics, where superpowers are commonplace. Crush the superheroes to win!
- Villainous Star Wars invites you to a galaxy far, far away! This game and its expansion take you into the world of Star Wars and the conflicts between Siths and Jedi. Play as the worst antagonists from the films and TV series, and may the Force be with you!
The family version of Villainous: The beginnings of evil
Family gamers love Villainous for its world inspired by the films of our childhood, but some characters can be difficult to master and require a bit of experience to get the most out of them.
The authors of Villainous have thought of the more family-oriented players who are looking for an immediate experience and have brought you The Beginnings of Evil! It features the iconic Disney characters and the asymmetrical principle in a game that's easier to get to grips with and quicker to play - ideal for families!
