The story aspect of the game is criticized for its brevity, offering only about five hours of content, and for repetitive missions that detract from the overall experience. Additionally, players note that the initial investment for the starter kit may be steep, and the mission design lacks creativity, contributing to a lackluster narrative experience.
“Missions repeat themselves.”
“Only five hours of story-driven content.”

Critic Reviews
Disney Infinity 2.0 has an infinite amount of problems
Disney Infinity: Marvel Super Heroes 2.0 feels like a failed attempt at rushing a game out to cash in on a trending genre, that ultimately suffers from too little development time and polish.

On balance the Disney Infinity 2.0: Marvel Super Heroes The Avengers Starter Pack — to give it its full name — offers a lot of value on its own. Providing families understand that the additional toys are optional extras rather than necessities they should be able to resist over-spending at super market checkouts. The improved upgrades, enhanced Toy Box experience and Marvel franchise make this year’s game an enticing proposition. Provided parents are willing to say “no” now and again to children’s pestering for more figures, it also offers good value on the Wii U.
