Learn about power-ups in Marvel Snap, including Little Hearts for energy, Big Hearts for full health, 1-ups for extra lives (max nine), and Continues.

Power-ups may appear after defeating certain enemies or reaching specific points in a level. While not all power-ups are explicitly noted, key ones include:

  • Little Heart - Replenishes approximately one-third of your energy.
  • Big Heart - Fills your life bar completely.
  • 1-ups - Essential for survival, these grant you an extra life. You can have a maximum of nine 1-ups. They appear as a small black circle with your character's emblem.
  • Continues - When you run out of lives, a Continue allows you to restart at the beginning of the level you died on with three lives. They appear as a small black circle with an exclamation point on it.
Tips
  • Big and Little Hearts are generally mentioned alongside other power-ups. If they appear alone and are hidden, they will be specifically pointed out.
  • Keep an eye out for the small black circle with your character's emblem, as this signifies a 1-up.
  • A maximum of nine 1-ups can be held at any time.
