Overview
Ben and his friends race to collect scattered pieces of the Potis Altiare, an ancient artifact that an evil To'kustar named Evil Way Big needs to reach Earth. Levels move from the catacombs of Rome through Paris, the Great Wall of China, an Amazon military base, Devil's Tower, and finally Tokyo Bay. Players swap between a roster of alien forms — some for tunneling, climbing, burning, or shrinking — to solve environmental puzzles and fight enemies in real time.

Why it matters
It is the DS entry in the Ben 10 game line that pairs the Ultimate Alien series' expanded alien roster with a platformer structure built around ability puzzles. The game also marks the DS version's distinct development from the console versions, giving it its own level flow and roster handling.
03
The physical edition
A typical complete copy includes the Nintendo DS game card in its retail case, an instruction booklet, and any promotional insert that shipped with the original press run. Packaging, inserts, and card artwork can vary by region, so edition-specific details should be confirmed before purchase.
04
Playing it today
The game runs on any standard Nintendo DS system, including the DSi, as a single-player card. It plays best as a straightforward platformer with short, ability-based levels and no online features.
