Transformers: Earth Wars is a new strategy game set in the G1 universe

Coming spring 2016

Space Ape Games is creating a new Transformers game for mobile devices called Earth Wars, and it’s using the old G1 art style that otherwise would be overused if it weren’t for the timeless nature of it, and the fact that the Bay-formers have dominated shelf space in the past nine years or so.

As a few readers have pointed out to me yesterday, it’s very close to the Clash of Clans style of games that have been dominating the market lately. Clash is fun for a lot of people, but I found it to be too predatory for my tastes, constantly luring you into spending money. Hopefully this will be different.

It’ll arrive in spring 2016 on both Android and iOS.
