Transform and roll out!
The Autobots are brave robot warriors hailing from the planet Cybertron. Their mission? To stop the Decepticons from enacting their evil schemes on Earth.
In Transformers Deck-Building Game, you take on the role of one of the mighty Autobots. Travel and explore the Matrix and transform between your different modes as you gain allies, find relics, and acquire technology to do battle with the Decepticons. But be warned! As your deck grows, more powerful Decepticons will rise up to challenge you.
Transformers Deck-Building Game can be played competitively or as a co-operative experience. This core set will begin your collection with everything needed to play, but the battle is far from over as playable Decepticons are on the way to expand your game.

This is an excellent deckbuilder with a few newer ideas that I haven't seen in other deckbuilders. If you are a Transformers fan, comics or cartoons, you will love this game. Buy it and all the expansions and promos.

This game is perfection for me, I love gen 1 transformers so when I got this for Christmas 3 years ago I had to play it right away, and each time it's been amazing

Picked this up on a whim at GenCon. We were playing in the general area and Mark Hyra (one of the creators) happened to be in the area while we were setting up. He sat down with us and showed us how to play (and signed our box!). We played this using the co-op rules and were thoroughly impressed. You play as the Autobots on patrol and defeat Decepticons and recuit allies and other cards to make your decks stronger. You use energy you gather while you play to upgrade card abilities and also transform back and forth between your robot and vehicle forms. Vehicle forms are super mobile but weaker at combat than the robot forms. You have to defeat all Decepticon bosses before running out of main deck cards or taking too much damage. I feel like this game hits strong thematic notes while still being a really enjoyable game. My wife and I are super eager to play it again and would easily recommend it to any Transformer fans! Thanks again Mark for showing us how to play, that was incredibly kind of you!
