Ben 10 (PS4)

Product Information

The game features puzzle-solving elements, requiring players to use their alien forms to solve puzzles and progress through the game's story. EXCITING NEW EPISODES Each brand new story is jam-packed with the humour and action you love from the Ben 10 animated series. Unlock and transform into all 10 of Ben's alien forms as you take on dangerous opponents like Zambezi, Queen Bee, and the Weather heads, and save the day with a combination of explosive combat and fun, mind-bending puzzles as you unravel three all-new episodes. Ben has two actions, jump and punch, which are both quite ineffective so you will find that the majority of your time will be spent as one of the alien forms he can turn into. Ben, transformed into Heatblast, tests a new power and accidentally ends up burning the tent that Max bought recently, leading to being punished for 6 months and they leave for the city to find a new tent.

Having the original cast dictate the story – complete with Ben’s complete indifference to Gwen and eye rolling at Max’s educational tidbits – make it far easier for the younger players to get invested in and understand the story. The sound design was also really good, the music sounded like the TV show, the voices with their one-liners were fun and I felt it made the experience more enjoyable having all these quips and pumping music. This makes a bit of a mockery of an inventory system that eventually fills with health boosts you’ll never really need but for the younger player, this gives them another system to play around with. Consenting to these technologies will allow us to process data such as browsing behavior or unique IDs on this site. You start off with the ability to turn into one of three aliens but you will soon learn new transformations and by the end of the game you will have all ten of them.Diamondhead/Thornblade, Rath/Bashmouth and Shock Rock/Bootleg finish off the 6 strong squad of aliens you can play with once unlocked.

Use each alien’s powerful combat moves – including Ultimate Attacks - to lay the beat-down on enemies with devastating combos and solve puzzles with each alien’s unique abilities as you unravel exciting new stories in three all-new playable episodes.You have two main goals in each level, defeat all the enemies you come across and try and collect three ‘sumo cards’ in each level. While the pedestrian nature of many of the quests lost the interest of my eldest son early on, the fun of playing as Ben/Kevin kept the attention of my younger 3 kids from start to finish, even with the frame rate issues in co-op. XLR8/Rush can sprint around the map allowing you to get from A to B quickly or grind on rails/wires to reach otherwise inaccessible places.
