Transforce is a MMO strategy game that allows you to control robots and a Transformer hero unit. The goal of the game is to build up your base and battle it out with other players as either an Autobot or a Decepticon.

TransForce Game Features

Transforce is similar in gameplay to the browser game Evony, except you are using robots instead of medieval units. Resources, hero units, alliances, base construction, and combat are the core components of Transforce.

Resources

The game consists of three main resources including metal, crystal, and oil. These resources are used for buildings, upgrades, and the purchase of units. These resource buildings are built on the outside portion of your base and can be upgraded for extra production with several plots of land available to build on. You also have energon as a resource which is made from your population. The higher your population the more energon you will produce per hour. Energon is used for upgrades and unit purchases.

Your Base

In the game you start out with a basic headquarters building which allows you to build the other structures in the game. You have two parts to your base your inside base which holds your main structures and the outside base where you build your resource buildings. You also have the option of building a shield and defensive structures for attack protection. As you upgrade your base you will gain extra plots for new building production.

Factory and Heroes

Robot Factory

To build robots you need to build a robot factory. You have several different types of robots including scouts, transports, and specific robot types that are designed to go up against various robot armors. It is a good idea to build a mix of robots so you have a balanced fighting force. Your army is lead by a hero transformer unit which you can build from parts.

Hero Units

In your base you can build a hall of hero building. In this building you can build your transformer unit. You don’t start with a full transformer you need to purchase individual parts to complete the unit. Each part requires you to upgrade your leadership through the technology center. If you don’t have a full Transformer unit, you can still battle it out using the parts you have. Once your unit is complete you can transform it into a full robot that will last one battle before it has to be transformed again.
