Story
[edit]
The Autobots have an energy crisis and must work as a team to repel the attack of the evil Decepticons while collecting the four pieces of the Autobot Energon Cube and transporting them back to the Autobot Centre. The Decepticons will attempt to steal these cubes, and it will only be a matter of time before they succeed.
In the long struggle against the evil forces, only five Autobots remain—Optimus Prime, Jazz, Hound, Mirage and Bumblebee—whereas the Decepticons have perfected ROBO-CLONING, reproducing any of their number which you destroy. The five heroes have a daunting task ahead, but gain some advantage from the DEFENSA-PODS under which they may seek shelter and regain their strength.
