About the Game

Bare Metal is a fast-paced tug-of-war game.

Each player has 4 towers that produce units: Tank, Chopper, Anti-Air and Mobile Bomb. Your base generates power to spend on units. Units get a veteran level for every three kills. You can spend more power to produce a veteran unit. Victory is achieved by killing your enemy’s units and towers.
