TRANSFORMERS: Galactic Trials

This should not exist :\ Bugged beyond belief! Every time you do the boost in the section change - prepare yourself to be either lunged into the wall or stopped in your boost and let others rubber band behind you and 'slingshot' them all in front. unfair. Cars: ugh...the way they control is just...weird, like a butter on the track...and this is not the compliment. sometimes you don't even know when you drift if you have enough velocity to do the turn! while those 'pushes' help to make the turns, but on some tracks you simply CAN'T slowdown, because of the 'rubber band' and 'slingshots'. The maps: The easy ones are fun, the mid challenging - can be fun, BUT! again...just like the hard ones can be VERY annoying! the enemies can throw you off the track, into the acid or simply go waaaaaay beyond you to chase them. the run & gun sections would've been fun...but on harder tracks you simply die for no reason. Every time you change into this mode - ALL your enemies get slingshotted to your location, no matter how far away you think you got away from them and then you get a barrage of bullets in your back...again - VERY UNFAIR to die for no reason! This is not a Mario Kart with random items, here everything is very clear...aaaaaaand...it's sad that we can't get a proper Transformers game for many years now...at least bring back Devastation or something? Graphics: omg...that's just a PRIME (lol) example what UE4 can do...you can't rely on blur and post-processing. Turn off blur and post to mid and you see that the game looks...VERY dated...some UE3 games look better than these textures and the lighting effects...the flowing acid looks like plastic goo... Overall, it would've been a great cellphone game, but for a PC Transformers game...this is a disgrace! Not worth even $16

Optimus and Megatron do not make out sloppy style instant -784/9812

A Transformers racing game and there isn't a single Stunticon. For a 40 dollar game, there sure are a lot of model reusage. The generic goons are all like 2-3 different models, then even with the main cast, Arcee, Flamewar, Nightbird, and Elita-1 are 4 characters that all use like 2 different models with some kibble alterations. The big unlockable Decepticon character is just an Optimus repaint. The game uses evergreen designs, cool! Except, they were too lazy to animate the spider tank shockwave, so they just gave him an alternate mode of a completely different shockwave, which is quite jarring when you know where his plane mode comes from, and looks kind of bad since it doesn't look like he actually transformed into/from the cybertronian plane (also for a character that turns into a plane he's kind of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥). The roguelike elements are also just okay, I like roguelikes, but a lot of the unlock challenges are actually atrocious, made worse by the fact that some characters are genuinely just bad (trying to win Prime mode as Megatron is like Sisyphus' boulder.) I can only recommend this game if you get it for like 10-15 dollars like I did, so wait for a big sale, otherwise, don't bother, this is just more shovelware slop coming out so Hasbro can act like they're actually giving their fans something.

I stopped at the "Clear Prime difficulty Galactic Trials using Megatron" task. I am not willing to continue playing this game for now. It's not fun, tedious and repetitive. However, I do plan to return to it when I'm more in the mood to grind it out because I like the nostalgic references. This is the first time I do a public review AND scrap the long list of cons and pros a game has in it. It's a shame because the game had a lot of potential.

I'm a transformers fan, but was skeptical about buying this for $40. Right now it's on sale for $13.00. I think that is about a fair price for this game. Game looks nice, I can run it at 244 fps. There's ocassional jank and bugs I've run into as well. But as you progress the handling gets better, and you get to try different guns. I would not recommend this for $40, but anything $20 or less is fair if you are a transformers fan.

The Game Is Good If You Are 8 Years Old If You 20 To 30 Trust Me Don't Play Itself Boring And Is More About Racing Not Combat I Mean What’s Kind Of Transformers Game Is Racing

For a driving game, the driving doesn't feel at all good, and the combat sections feel super clunky. It all sounds good on paper, but with the cheap execution, boring maps and only 8 characters to choose from it feels lack luster, even when you buy it on a sale.

Transformers: Galactic Trails is a barely-polished and lackluster attempt at a Transformers racing game. Don't get me wrong, the concepts here are fantastic, but the execution is so poor that I wouldn't recommend this game, even if it was free. The gameplay is quite fun when you start playing but then quickly gets boring. There are sections were you fight in robot mode and the running feels really sluggish and just dampens the overall experience. The lack of maps also make this game insanely repetitive and hard to play. On top of that, each character has such a limited number of voice lines (which are either catchphrases or terrible quips) that you end up getting annoyed listening to everyone speak.
