Ben Alien Vilgax Attacks Force Fight

The story behind Ben Alien Vilgax Attacks Force Fight revolves around one of Ben's worst enemies invading Earth in an attempt to destroy the entire planet with a weapon known as a Null Void Projector.

The plan succeeds, and when Protector of Earth seems lost, Professor Paradox arrives and turns back time so that Ben and his friends can track down the power sources of this weapon so Vilgax can't put his plot in motion.

For the most part, gameplay across the seven included worlds is a balance of action and puzzle-solving that revolves around the skills of Ben's alien forms.

For example, Ben might need to change into his Humongousaur form to break through doors, or use his Swampfire form to ignite flammable substances.

Each form has different combinations and special attacks that it can execute,

and Ben can unlock 10 new abilities by defeating enemies and collecting glowing energy orbs.

However, there is one gameplay element that players should be aware of: using a form's innate abilities drains energy from Ben's Omnitrix meter,

preventing them from continually being used until the meter can recharge.

As a result, players will need to focus on combos and save their special attacks for finishing blows instead of constantly wielding them in battle.

As appealing as the different forms are, it exposes perhaps the largest issue with the gameplay,

which is that there isn't really a reason for using every single form.

I found Spidermonkey to be the most useful because of its speed and Humongousaur because of its strength.

I rarely touched the other aliens, besides using them for puzzles.

The same diminished importance can be said about the game's Ship sections,

where you fly through space, blasting asteroids and satellites.

Not only do you not receive anything for participating in these segments,

but you're automatically given the option to skip these transitional moments to get right back into the action,

which makes them seem useless. Considering the fact that there's no reason to jump back and replay this game once you've finished playing, the inclusion of these sections doesn't extend the gameplay.
