Diehard GameFAN: Ben 10: Omniverse Review

DHGF: Ben 10: Omniverse is the odd sort of kids game that is too simplistic for adults, but not balanced enough for kids, and while the product does a fine job bringing the franchise to life, the final product becomes so tedious and frustrating that only a small group of people will really get anything out of it. The plot is adequate for what it is and seems to do the show sufficient justice, the game looks acceptable and sounds slightly better than such, and the gameplay isn’t terribly difficult to understand once you spend a little time with it. The basic design of the game has its moments, and with local co-op that offers jump-in jump-out support, multiple difficulty levels, plenty of Achievements to earn and a decent variety of play options, the game could have some mild staying power. However, the game itself offers nothing to do outside of the campaign, and the Hero difficulty isn’t much more difficult than the Easy difficulty save that enemies take much longer to beat down, making it more tedious than challenging.
