Lovers of the film franchise will be excited to know that the latest blockbuster hit has been transformed into a new mobile game. The game has been launched only on iOS devices and would be best described as a tactical running game. Worry not Android users, there have been many whispers that the game will soon be released for you too. In the game, players run away from the screen, with users tilting their device to change directions and using the various buttons to jump, equip weapons and perform attacks. What’s great about this game is that DeNA and Hasbro have created an ever changing environment, with the player progressing throughout the levels as an Autobot in both car mode and full transformed robot mode.
Of course, as with most mobile games these days, the better you play the more rewards you will receive. The stars that you earn in each level of Transformers: Age of Extinction will allow you to unlock different characters or even upgrade your existing Autobot with better armour, weaponry and attacks. The amount of stars you will earn after each completed mission will obviously depend on how well you control your Autobot, along with the size and skill required of your attacks.
The developers/publishers of the game are really honing into the nostalgia of Transformers fans everywhere, with Mark Blecher, SVP of digital gaming & corporate development at Hasbro saying, “Transformers: Age of Extinction – The Official Mobile Game is a fantastic game not just for people who enjoy action-packed mobile games but also for Transformers fans everywhere. Defeating your enemies with Grimlock is a defining moment for any true Transformers fan.”
What is sure to be the next blockbuster hit in this movie franchise does not hit cinemas until tomorrow, however, the game is already available to download for free in the iTunes App Store.
