Thor: God of Thunder (Wii)

Play as Thor, God of Thunder, in an epic-scale action adventure as Thor battles to save his home of Asgard. Wielding the iconic Mjölnir, Thor’s legendary hammer, fight across multiple Norse worlds, controlling elemental storm powers to overcome hordes of deadly foes with devastating lightning bolts, earthshaking thunder, and mighty blasts of wind that can sweep away throngs of enemies. Battle through mythological realms to overcome colossal enemies lifted from the pages of the comics, including Ulik, Ymir, and Surtur, in a clash that extends to extraordinary planets filled with Frost Giants, Trolls and other mammoth opponents. Use powerful melee combos, lethal hammer throws, godlike elemental powers and a robust grappling system to take down enemies that range from large to gigantic: go toe-to-toe with a 25-foot tall, 12-ton Ice Troll for a truly heart-pumping experience.

In the midst of massive action, there’s still room for strategic choices. Level up Thor’s abilities as you earn Valor points, customizing your powers from the skill tree. Smash opponent armor to reveal weak spots and disable weapons. Manage the Odinforce resource that powers your elemental attacks, building up reserves for taking down level bosses. Choose between lightning-fast Tap and slow but powerful Charge options for finishing moves and storm powers, weighing the speed, damage and Odinforce cost of different attacks to fit battle conditions.

The game’s compelling original storyline was overseen by Eisner Award-winning writer and lead Thor comic book author Matt Fraction. Chris Hemsworth, who also plays Thor in the film adaptation, voices the title role while Tom Hiddleston portrays Loki. With big action, battling Norse gods, and Hollywood production values, Thor: God of Thunder is an interactive experience that’s larger than life in every sense.
