This video game is based the 2-part episodes of Ben 10: Omniverse: "The Frogs Of War".

Reception

The console version has been highly panned upon release. Meracitic give it a 1.5 out of 5. With many considering it to be the worst Ben 10 game of all time. Based on 3 reviews. Heavy criticism has gone to the game's narrative, short length (the game can be beaten in under 90 minutes), and restricting the number of usable aliens to 3 per level. Another element that has been widely panned is the focus on running sections, with many players branding it a 'Temple Run rip-off.'
