Transformers: Dark of the Moon - Autobots on DS is exactly what you'd expect—chaotic robot brawls with just enough vehicle action to keep it interesting. You start off picking your bot (Optimus feels like the obvious choice, but Bumblebee’s speed is surprisingly fun), and within minutes you're smashing through city blocks, switching between robot and car mode mid-combo. The Decepticons hit hard, so you’ll actually need to dodge and time attacks instead of just button-mashing.
The missions get repetitive after a while, but the transforming mechanic never gets old—there’s something satisfying about rolling up as a truck, then flipping into a fight with a sword. Graphics are rough even for the DS, but the voice lines and sound effects nail that classic Transformers vibe. If you grew up on the movies or just love a decent portable beat-em-up, it’s a solid pick.
