Tank Wars Online is a 2D online multiplayer war game specially intended for those who want to play games online
without having to invest hours and hours of their time getting good at a game and without having to spend
lots of money getting the latest graphic upgrade for their computer.
Its simple but addictive gameplay will have anyone playing in seconds. And for those who want more there's
hidden depth in the choice of your tank, special moves and powerups, and team based gametypes that require a higher
level of strategy to win.
Tank Wars Online is played from a top-down perspective. At the start of each game you get a choice of eight
different tanks. You pick one and start to play. The tanks are controlled with the arrow-keys on your keyboard
and space is used to fire your tank's cannon. Different tanks have different weapons, as well as other properties like
speed, turning and armor.
Your goal in the game is to shoot down other players while trying to stay alive yourself. For every
enemy player you shoot down you get a point. At the end of the game the player with the most points wins and the game starts
again on another or the same map.
Some team based gametypes have additional goals, which means that besides shooting
other players and getting points, in order for your team to win you have to either
"Bomb" the other teams base or "Capture" the other teams flag.
Scattered around the map you will find small powerups for your tank to pickup. These are generated randomly and may appear
anywhere on the map. The different powerups gives your tanks extra abilities, like more speed, nitro or shield.
The game's old-school but colorful and detailed graphics brings a light mood to the game and goes well with the uncomplicated gameplay.
Small neat effects like sparkles that fly, tank tracks, explosions, tank parts that fly off and a fitting range of sound effects brings
the game to life.
