History VideoGame / LEGOMarvelSuperHeroes

* TheMainCharactersDoEverything: Averted, your partner(s) can (and do) take enemies out. If you're assigned to defeat a certain number of foes, it's not uncommon for AI allies to score the finishing blow. Usually, the player character can take down the mooks in one hit, while the partner character needs to attack at least four times.

* RagnarokProofing: Wolverine expresses incredulously impressed surprise at how the mechanisms made for climbing the Statue of Liberty still work, since the statue's older than [[OlderThanTheyLook he is]].

* LuckBasedMission: ''LEGO Marvel Super Heroes'' has [[PassThroughTheRings racing challenges]] in the middle of ''randomly generated traffic''. You might get a clear road or a huge bus in your way, and this makes a massive difference. You can even the odds if you use a vehicle with guns on it, which can destroy obstructive vehicles, or use a big-fig, all of which after getting a running start become TheJuggernaut, running incredibly fast and plowing through vehicles without stopping.

* LethalJokeCharacter: Squirrel Girl has the ability to quickly destroy a large number of enemies within a certain radius.

** You can just run rodshod over NYC with the Hulk. Once he starts running at full speed, there is nothing that can stop the Hulk. He'll just either flatten or destroy anything that gets in his way (hitting vehicles won't even slow him down). Ironically, the same can't be said for Juggernaut.

* ARareSentence: Out of all the things Agent Coulson has told the heroes to do as MissionControl, the thing that makes him give a NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer is [[spoiler:having to take a plane to chase after Magneto and the Statue of Liberty]].

* PowerWalk: When everybody heads out to face Galactus, they do so with plodding style and slow-motion.

* CameraScrew: Your co-op partner can ''inadvertently'' cause this by going too far or in the wrong direction, thus causing the split-screen to split in such a way that you are interacting with objects that aren't actually visible to you. Worse yet, you can be put in a position where you can't even ''see'' the object you need to interact with to complete the level (by your partner, as opposed to the example above, which is the game's doing).

The game's version of Spider-Man is featured in the 2023 film ''WesternAnimation/AcrossTheSpiderVerse''.

* {{Flanderization}}: Many character traits are emphasized for comedy.

** The game got an Xbox One version shortly after the console came out. While adapting it however, a few lines from the story either got cut out or muted. An example would be when Green Goblin is starting to fight the Fantastic Four, his first line is muted and oddly replaced by Mr. Fantastic's "He won't give up."

* AluminumChristmasTrees: If your primary exposure to the Marvel universe comes from the movies, it seems quite strange to see Spider-Man, the Fantastic Four, the Avengers, and the X-Men all in the same game. (The game even lampshades this, giving you an achievement if you pair [[Creator/ChrisEvans Captain America and the Human Torch]] on a team with both controllers active.)
