Play Tanks Game

Tanks, created by 2D Play, is a game which combines physics and combat. You are a small tank on a 2D battlefield. You are against other tanks which can either be another players or CPU. Up to 5 players may play this game but it works best with 2 players. This is a turn based game. You may choose mountain, forest, or desert terrain type. When it is your turn to shoot, you pick the velocity and the angle in which you want to fire. Your goal is to hit the other tank. Another factor you consider is the wind which goes either left or right and is between 0 and 100 units.

When you are hit, your hit points go down. You start with 100 hit points and die when you hit 0. You may also use repair kits that you may buy that repairs your tank once it is damaged. There are also shields that a player must bypass before the tank is actually damaged. The amount of hit points you have also corresponds with the maximum velocity you may shoot. If your tank has 50 hit points, it can only shoot at a maximum velocity of 50.

When a tank explodes, the round is over. Each player received money and points from the round. With the money you received, you may buy new equipment for the tank. There are many bombs you may purchase including atom bombs, balls, hot showers, air strikes, and volcano bombs. You may also purchase upgrades for your tank. You may upgrade the shield, hill move, engine or energy. Other merchandise includes parachutes, repair kits, fuel and teleport kits.

There are a few glitches in the game which you should try to avoid. One has to do with buying armor. When you buy enough extra armor for your tank, it will almost never die. There is a problem with decimal points and rounding which leaves your tank invincible unless sunken. Another glitch is the amount of volcano bombs you get. You start with 10 volcano bombs and 100 small bombs. However, after the first round if over, both players get 100 volcano bombs. This glitch makes the small bombs useless and ruins some strategy a player might have in saving up money to get new weapons.

I would rate this game a 7/10. This game is a lot of fun and you have a blast upgrading your tank and playing each level. However, the glitches prevent you from the full gaming experience. In addition, as with every turn based game, the game is slow paced so it may get boring quickly.
