Play Transformers - War for Cybertron - Decepticons (EU) Online

Transformers: War for Cybertron - Decepticons for the Nintendo DS came out in 2010, published by Activision. It was part of a pair of games released alongside the console versions, offering a portable take on the Cybertronian war during the DS's later years. This one puts you squarely on the side of Megatron's forces.

You control various Decepticon warriors, switching between their robot and vehicle forms to navigate levels and engage Autobot enemies. The main objective is to complete mission-based stages, often involving straightforward combat, destroying key targets, or advancing through enemy lines. Signature mechanics include the constant form shifting for mobility or firepower advantages and, in some stages, directing Soundwave's cassette minions like Laserbeak to scout or attack from unexpected angles. The pacing is generally brisk, with levels built around action and exploration, though the fixed camera and sometimes cramped environments can make navigation a little awkward. It feels like a solid, condensed action game that delivers on the simple pleasure of causing chaos as a Decepticon.
