ben 10 ultimate alien cosmic destruction

The puzzles in the levels are relatively simple, and involve things like using Humungousaur's strength to fit a bell-shaped rock sculpture into a bell-shaped hole in a door to get it to open, or pulling a switch to open a skylight, so that the sun outside can shine down onto the platforms below, highlighting the trick platforms - landing on one of these will send you plummeting to your doom. Humugasaur - what happens when The Incredible Hulk spends too much time with David Dickinson. The levels are relatively straightforward get-from-A-to-B affairs, where you'll need to fight a ton of monsters, solve a fair few alien-transformation related puzzles and pull off some crazy platforming - but even though the levels are quite linear, there is a little room for exploring, as the collectable 'Sumo Slammer' cards are often slightly off the beaten track. And thanks to his small stature, he can also fit through the small tunnels (often covered by grates you'll need to punch out the way first) you'll find littered through the levels. Terraspin is a massive turtle who can do a crazy spinning double jump and hover in mid air, and Echo Echo is a tiny white thing who is able to create clones of himself, which comes in handy when you have two switches that need to be pulled at the same time. For example, Humungousaur is a massive, tall guy, with biceps the size of a bus, who looks a bit like The Incredible Hulk with a fake tan, and is able to push massive objects with ease (one handed too!), as well as having the ability to smash through certain breakable walls. The levels themselves let you pick any 4 of Ben's alien transformations at the start, although you're probably best just sticking with the ones it suggests, as you'll often need a specific alien's special ability to progress through the level. And some of these bosses seem to be after the artefact bits too - presumably for their own nefarious deeds. This alien artefact has been broken into pieces, and scattered across the globe, so Ben Tennyson needs to scour the planet in search of the pieces, defeating a load of bosses that all already seem to know him from somewhere (presumably the TV show) as he goes.

In fact, it was only after researching for writing this review, I found out that in the game you're supposed to be on the search for 'an ancient alien artefact' to save humanity from a massive cosmic storm. For the uninitiated, however, a teeny tiny bit more explanation would go a long way. Those things aside, I would imagine 'Ben 10 Ultimate Alien: Cosmic Destruction' would make perfect sense to those who've seen the TV series, which is probably who it's been intended for, anyway.

What Terraspin lacks in the head department, he certainly makes up for with arms.
