THE INFINITY SWORD AND FRACTALS
When Iron Man and Dr. Doom fought over the most powerful
weapon in the universe, the Innity Sword, it broke into many
little pieces, called fractals, which scattered everywhere. Now,
Dr. Doom is searching for the fractals so he can put the sword
back together and use its power to conquer the world. To stop
that from happening, Iron Man has assembled a special team of
heroes called the Super Hero Squad. The Squad needs to nd
the fractals before Dr. Doom does. Help them collect fractals
by playing the games. Every time you successfully complete an
activity (by scoring 80 points or more) you will earn a new fractal.
Collect all twelve fractals to complete the sword. Press the
Progress button at any time to see the number of fractals you’ve
collected so far.
