Ben 10 Alien Force: Vilgax Attacks :: Wii Game Review

Courtesy of D3

The evil Vilgax, Ben's greatest enemy, has been busy. Several dangerous aliens, including some that are very familiar like Ghostfreak, have been gathered together and are now attacking the home planets of Ben's Omnitrix alien forms. Now it's up to Ben, his alien forms, Gwen, and Kevin to travel across the universe and save it from doom.

Change is Good

Vilgax Attack is the first game for the Ben 10 Alien Force series. Ben now has different alien forms than before and you will be able to use most of them while fighting and solving puzzles. You will need to pick the correct form to use in order to make your way through each level. For example, Humongosaur can smash through walls and Spidermonkey can swing across large gaps. As well, the bosses you fight at the end of each level are weak to certain alien forms, so choose wisely.

You can change alien forms on the fly, just like Ben does, and can stay in any form for as long as you like. However, if you use the form's abilities, your Omnitrix energy level will go down. Defeating enemies will get you more energy and also experience points that you can use to upgrade the attack and defense of the alien form, as well as learn new tricks.

Perfect 10?

Ben 10 Alien Force: Vilgax Attacks is a solid game. It has much to offer, including an upgradeable spaceship and space battles. It has great graphics and the controls are good and easy to use. It features an original story that was written by the cartoon show's writers, which is sure to be a hit with fans. It is also the first time that you will be able to travel to so many different planets, giving you lots of places to explore, both old and new.
