About the Game

Doodle Tank Commander is a strategy game where you set up an army and face another enemy tank army.
The composition of enemy tanks and the positions will make each level different in how you can approach it.

Area damage, armor penetration, flanking, tank speed, shielding from enemy fire and damage per second are key factors in understanding how to win a level.

Army Builder

Six slots that can be used to create your own tanks.
  • Double MG tower with light fast body armor?
  • Rocket tower for high range and area damage mounted on a heavy slow tank?
  • Laser tower on a cheap medium health tank body for good damage per second material cost ratio?

Tank parts are easily swaped out to find tank combinations suitable to win a level.

Tank Puzzler

Each level tries to introduce new concepts and enemy tank combinations that have to be dealt with.
