Quality Of Life Improvements
Sun Nov 14 2021 mrb731This is a great game! It’s balanced, it also has a lot of depth and it’s fun but there are a few things I would change. First, it would be nice to see the troop’s HP and Damage when you hold down on the card (that’s on the card “shelve”) during battle. Next, please add more deck slots because 3 is not much to build different decks. Also please add leaderboards. Maybe you get rewards at the end of the week and the better you rank, the better the rewards! Lastly, when selecting emotes and building decks, I find it confusing. I would make it where you for example select the emote and it moves to your favorite section. It doesn’t still show in the unfavorite section. That’s all I have for now! Can’t wait for more troops, arenas, and other content to be added in the future! Keep up the great work! ***P.S. It would be nice to “re-roll” a few missions per day so if there are missions you don’t like, you can replace them for new ones. Also I think monthly missions would be cool. Maybe they take longer to complete but have better rewards.***
Great game..but…
Mon Feb 28 2022 ChazzollaIt may be a big task l. But this game needs better structure. It’s too easy to get characters which I don’t mind but there should be more gaming levels. There should also be clans or alliances. There needs to be more specialized characters. There needs to be more arenas. I means guys come on, we are paying to play this game so you can at least give us more characters and arenas and game modes to play. There needs to be a separation of auto bots and decepticons. When I say that I mean that there should be classes and synergies. For instance star scream should be the legendary character for his type of decepticon. So you should have Ramjet and Thundercracker along with him because they would serve as a jet class. Does that make sense? There’s so much you guys can do with this game and it would be in competion with Clash Royale and other tower games like it. Please improve the gameplay and your revenue would probably double in a fiscal year.
Rebalance hoses older players
Tue Dec 28 2021 GenicusWhat happens when you are in the endgame and you dumped all your character points into teams that are no longer competitive? Everyone since the rebalance gets the chance to build their team with the new meta in mind, but when your level is too high, you get matched with people you’ll never win against for all eternity. And since there is no way to re-spec, there’s no way to grow other units except hope you can maybe complete one mission a day for months on end, if you happen to get lucky enough to have missions you can even complete with your newly-nerfed squads that have achieved near-uselessness.
Other than that, it’s incredibly fun. It’s a really good game, and great for you if you’re a starter and can see how things look and work and build your team based on it. The sound, the visuals, the gameplay - all top-notch. It might be dead for me, as the feedback loop is broken with no way out but a very slow slog. But if you’re deciding to start based on reviews, you should have a lot of fun! It was the only game I played for a long time before I couldn’t play it anymore.
BROKEN & UNFAIR
Sun Oct 02 2022 Codyb142536I've never written a review before but I have to write one after reading the other comments. This game's computer AI is obviously cheating. I have discovered that the number of "energon" being used by the computer is inflated. I have shown this by recording my gameplay and calculting the bots being played. This is because the developers are trying to create a "ranked" battle environment so they can controll the payout of cards based on gameplay as to not get the gamer to tap out. what they dont get is that they have an A game and dont need to trick us into playing it more. We are hooked, just make it fair! The gambling psychology being used is clever for a capitalist copmpeting in a saturated market, but transformers is one of the best games that I have play in a while. Change the ranked system into a "campaign" where charactor cards are unlocked by climbing the ladder. After a player completes the campaign, then they will have (all?) of their cards to go then fight and level up in the multi player based on a true ranking system. Otherwise the psychology is immoral and people are going to catch on to unfair games like this one.
Fix OP characters and gems
Wed Jan 04 2023 sirdynamo1The last changes have caused 9 out of 10 players I face a day to just drop turrets and add chimera stone for an easy lazy tower hit . When I come to those players that start a game that way they are sure to do it 4-5 more times making a dull game. So eventually I stated to give them the lane and wait for better players. Same with having to face GRIMLOK 8 times a game. He’s so over powered so shouldn’t be available that easily and for that many times. You fixed the issue of unbalanced game play with walking characters with RATCHET down the lane unharmed. So you can figure this out as well.— —update: all that has happened is they added a robot Jedi and and even bigger OP CHARACTER that takes up half the board. No new levels. No balancing for OP characters. no fixing the laser turret nonsense. No where to go at upper levels. No changes in the game to make it worth continuing.—update: now there are overpowered suicide drones that show up in every game. It’s getting further away from Transformer vs Transformer strategic game play. A gorilla on a surfboard??? Ugh
It’s like clash but way more fun
Mon Jul 04 2022 MrsuspendersWhen I started playing this game I quit clash royal. I love that it is free on Apple Arcade and doesn’t encourage micro transactions. Plus the graphics sound and game play are better.
I do get frustrated that I can’t use the new cards when they come out because it takes so long to level them up. I wonder if there is a way you could have separate challenges where you have to use the new cards in the deck and when you win you get a bunch of that card, and playing those challenges don’t effect your rank. Or do something where new cards are leveled up to your tower level for the season.
Wait that gives me another idea. What if you could choose to play the game I ranked. It could still pit you against people at your level but you wouldn’t go up or down if you won or lost. A way to play around with decks without risking going down a level.
Feels Like I’m Playing the Cartoon!
Sat Nov 13 2021 J/Tay81First of all, the sound effects, visuals, and voices are all there. The game has a polished presentation. They just released a fix so the game doesn’t kill my battery or cause my phone to overheat. The game play itself is generally quick and satisfying, but there are times when you’re up against an opponent who is much stronger than you and you are beaten quite quickly. The various characters all have a ‘rock-paper-scissors’ role: the Decepticon Swarm easily overtakes the hulking Devestator, but they are easily wiped out by Hot Rod’s flamethrower. Like a card game, you build out a ‘deck’ of characters from the ones you’ve collected and try to take out your opponents. The animations of the battles are satisfying to watch, though I wish the playing field was slightly zoomed in a bit more.
It will be interesting to see if other characters, levels or abilities get included in future updates.
More Than Meets The Eye!
Tue Jan 24 2023 PhoticsThis is a very good game, as it's the primary reason why I have an active Apple Arcade subscription.
The game needs work, but the developers are cool. They seem to genuinely care about improving the game and respecting the history of Transformers.
The game is quite faithful to the 1980s cartoon. Actually, it's even better. Optimus Prime and friends look great! Possibly better than ever.
(I prefer the classic G1 style instead of the recent movies.)
The major downside to this game is that it's Player-vs-Player combat (which is incredibly intense) but slowed down by frustrating level grinding. It's as if a pay-to-win game was force-fit into Apple Arcade's no in-app purchases environment. The end result is a lot of unnecessary and mindless tedium.
I think the game could benefit from a cooperative mode and a PvE mode. I don't want to fight AGAINST my friends. I want to fight TOGETHER with my friends.
The AI is the real enemy here. HA HA! 😄
At the top of the leaderboard, the computer battles are insane. Since there are not so many players at the top, the AI is a stopgap. Instead of mixing PvE and PvE, it really should be two separate modes.
I look forward to watching this game grow. The updates are fairly regular and they usually add to the fun. Hopefully matchmaking is truly improved and more friendly play modes are added.
Love it but…
Sat Apr 16 2022 SpyderShrikeI love the gameplay and overall it seems quite balanced. However, last season I finished in the top 0.9% of players yet still failed to reach the highest league on the leaderboards. A lot of this has to do with the fact that when facing AI opponents every single one of their units is level 8. Oftentimes the entire strategy of the AI is to spam level 8 Bonecrusher who has so much health he monopolizes the DPS of every unit on the field while they are destroyed down by other units. I’m also quite certain that half of the “real” opponents I face are in fact AI, based on the fact that I’ll face someone with a level 7 base fielding an entire team of level 8 units. I just don’t see how that’s possible. I’d just like to win based on my strategy and unit selection vs. knowing I’m going to lose 15 seconds into a game because the AI has a full compliment of level 8 units and rarely used yet perfect counters to my team.
Terrible Match Making
Mon Aug 01 2022 PBS1973The match making in this game isn’t very good. It doesn’t seem to take your decks total power into consideration when matching you to an opponent. While we might have the same total level score I am always going up against higher level cards. Example: my cards are level 6s and 7s my opponent has a deck of all maxed out level 8s. There is very little you can do because the higher power cards grind my lower leveled ones down and i have to play 2 cards to counter their one. Also there are a lot of matches where you are fighting where the tower power levels are missed matched as well. Example: I have a level 7 tower and my opponent has level 8. They are now starting with the advantage of a tower with more health and defense power than mine. The match making should go by the total power of the deck the player is currently using and their tower power should always be equal. If this issue is fixed this will be a really good game.
