On December 19th, 2014, Hasbro released a brand new mobile game based on their [then] upcoming cartoon series Transformers: Robots In Disguise. The app may have not gotten a massive mainstream popularity, but it was a treasure trove of information for the fans of the show and the toyline. With frequent updates, the app gave animation model renders, 3D toy images and plot information well ahead of their official releases. Furthermore, the game was completely free of charge to download and featured zero in-app purchases and micro-transactions; something that is extremely rare in this day and age.
Alas, June 2019 is the sunset month of this wonderful mobile game app. Until June 30th, fans can download the app from Apple App Store and Google Play Store for iPhones/iPads/iPod Touch and Android devices respectively.
Transformers: Robots In Disguise mobile game received a quiet yet highly satisfied following thanks to the complete lack of micro-transactions and the offline nature of the game. The developer Marmalade Game Studio ensured that timely updates were pushed to each season of the show, updating with new information and characters to keep the fans satisfied. Thanks to its success, a spinoff game for Apple TV was also produced in 2016.
We are yet to see another app similar to RID. Although there was a plan for Transformers: The Last Knight which incorporated Tiny Turbo Changers, the idea was scrapped during its initial phase.
We thank Hasbro and Marmalade Game Studio for this outstanding app and hope to see another app in near future.

First Spider-Man: Unlimited, now this! I'll miss this game, really enjoyed it back then. It kinda feel apart at the end with them not even adding certain characters and a lack of other types of new content, but I still loved it when it was out just like the cartoon.

This is why I don't bother with most media that comes from Hasbro. Blocked in JAPAN, arguably the spiritual home of Transformers.

It was fun for a little while but way too repetitive.

now keep in mind these games will be able to be downloaded from other sources once they go from the official store.

I did like this game plus the ability to scan the figures into the game was genius.

So it's finally closing huh
Played a while back, it's an okay time killer.

I never realized the game had no micro-transactions. It's kinda just assumed that all free games do… they should have made a bigger deal out of that, I would've started playing it a long time ago.

It was a cool little game, gathering and scanning all those emblems was a lot of fun)
I wonder if they've ever fixed the problem with Legion Ratchet's toy.

I Would\'ve Love To See A TLK Tiny Turbo Changers Game!
