Infinity Gauntlet Thanos Simulator, created as a solo project by developer Blg42598 on Roblox (Place ID 3261957210), has evolved through several massive content overhauls since its original release in 2019. Major milestones like the V2 rework on July 7, 2022, the Time Update, and Update 3.2 have consistently introduced new Marvel-inspired bosses, forgeable weapons, cosmetics, and alternate game modes.
Keeping track of weapon rework requirements, badge additions, and boss encounter mechanics is essential for progressing through late-game milestones like the Catacombs, World5, and the Celestial Forge.
Major Content Milestones and Version History
The progression structure in Infinity Gauntlet Thanos Simulator relies on kill milestones, fragment farming at the Forge, and specialized trials.

Update 3.2: Doctor Doom and Mechanical Gloves
Update 3.2 introduced the Doctor Doom boss battle and the Mechanical Gloves weapon, based on a concept inspired by community creator kingspacedoggo. This update expanded the game's badge count to 29 total achievements on Roblox.
To initiate the Doom encounter, players travel to the designated summoning arena, activate the gauntlet snap on the upper structure, and solve the alignment puzzle using laser attacks. During the battle, Doctor Doom deploys high-damage ground slams, homing projectile orbs, and persistent black hole vortices that bypass standard player defense mechanics, including administrative force fields.
Defeating Doctor Doom unlocks the Mechanical Gloves badge and grants access to the weapon's custom moveset:
- Basic Attack (M1): High-damage close-range impacts that vaporize standard mobs.
- Lightning Strike (E): Direct electric burst resembling Thor-style lightning discharges.
- Shield-Piercing Orbs: Ranged projectiles that deal percentage-based damage and bypass defensive barriers.
- Black Hole Vortex: Spawns a localized gravitational well that continuously damages and traps nearby NPCs for kill farming.
- Telekinetic Lift: Hoists target NPCs directly into the air before releasing them.
The Time Update: Time Stick, TemPad, and Gungnir
The Time Update branch introduced specialized gear inspired by the TVA storyline, adding dedicated trial platforms near the Forge ring.
The Time Stick Trial
Added on December 25, 2024, the Time Stick is an early-to-midgame weapon located behind the Forge on a floating platform marked by an hourglass symbol. Players activate the altar using the gauntlet disintegrate move, triggering sequential waves of Astra NPCs (Levels 1 through 4) followed by the Astra Boss.
Astra enemies wield active Time Sticks capable of pruning player limbs on contact; the standard Gauntlet Shield (C) does not block Time Stick hits. The weapon itself features an M1 Disintegrate attack that slows enemies and instantly eliminates targets with under 500 health, calculated dynamically against larger NPC health pools with a 3-second cooldown on hit and a 1-second cooldown on miss.
TemPad Integration
Unlocked through extended Astra trial encounters, the TemPad functions as a portable dimensional gateway. Activating the device opens a time door that transports the player to spawn or custom saved coordinates, though live testing has noted cooldown bugs across specific server instances.
Gungnir Crafting Rework
Originally available as a 750 Robux gamepass from September 19, 2023, Gungnir was temporarily replaced in the store by The Surfer flight board. In the Winter Update v3.1, developer Blg42598 reintroduced Gungnir as an in-game badge weapon. Players can forge Gungnir at the Forge by depositing 750 fragments. The weapon features the Call to Arms minion summon (Q) and an energy beam attack (E) that charges by defeating mobs across the map.
Alternate Game Modes: Last Stand and Hardcore
In addition to the standard open map, major updates introduced dedicated game modes accessible from the spawn menu.
Last Stand Mode
Last Stand is an endurance survival mode where players fight escalating enemy waves to reach round 100. Key mechanics include:
- Points Economy: Players earn points by eliminating waves of enemies and celestial servants.
- Random Mystery Box: Costing 1,250 points per roll, the box awards mode-exclusive firearms and melee options including Quad Blasters, Dual Blasters, Captain America's Shield, and Wolverine Claws.
- Mode Upgrades: A designated Forge portal within Last Stand allows weapon upgrades for 20,000 points.
- Round 100 Badge: Surviving through wave 100 awards the badge titled "Round 100" with the developer note "Is this even possible?". Community testing logs full runs averaging between 8 and 10 hours.
Hardcore Mode
Hardcore mode places players on a legacy version of the map with permadeath rules: dying once resets your entire character run. Key features of this mode include:
- Saving Mechanism: Players cannot save automatically. To exit safely without wiping data, you must return to the spawn platform and click the glowing blue orb to generate an exit portal.
- Meteor Drops: Meteors crash in Hardcore mode roughly every 90 minutes.
- Nano Cases and Keys: Meteors drop Nano Cases alongside tiny keys that despawn after 3 minutes.
- Skin Crates: Opening a Nano Case with a key grants weapon skins, including Common variants (70%), Uncommon variants, Rares (6% for Hadron Enforcer and Cosmi Rod), and the Legendary Infinity Gauntlet Nano skin (2%).
PvP Arena
Access to the dedicated player-versus-player battleground requires completing the base Infinity Gauntlet with all six Infinity Stones equipped.
Weapon Reforges and Trial Adjustments
Several minor patches adjusted existing weapon upgrade trials to fix balance exploits and streamline progression.
- Hadron Enforcer Upgrade: In earlier game builds, players could activate the temple star puzzles using Mjolnir's lightning beam. Developer updates patched this interaction, requiring players to aim and fire the Hadron Enforcer directly at the overhead stars to summon the trial boss.
- World5 and Heart of Ymir: Accessible via the holiday portal under spawn after gathering 8 present fragments, conquering the Celestial boss in World5 grants the Heart of Ymir relic. This relic permanently applies a passive freeze effect to melee attacks on the Upgraded Infinity Gauntlet and Casket of Ancient Winters.
- Mjolnir Fragment Multi-Cast: Pressing X while wielding Mjolnir splits the hammer into fragments, clearing clustered mob spawns at the Forge without requiring paid gamepasses.

The game is developed entirely as a solo project by Roblox user Blg42598.
How do you get Gungnir after the store update?

How do you save your progress in Hardcore mode?
To safely save and exit Hardcore mode, jump up to the spawn platform and interact with the floating blue orb. This spawns a return portal to the main game without wiping your single-life run.
Can you use weapons from Last Stand in the main game?
Weapons unlocked through the 1,250-point mystery box in Last Stand (such as Wolverine Claws or Star-Lord Blasters) are mode-exclusive and do not transfer to your main open-world inventory.
