About the Game

Turn-Based Multiplayer Battles

Tanks is a 2D turn-based multiplayer artillery game for 2–6 players, playable locally or online. Each match starts with a randomized turn order and a spawn phase, where players drop their tanks onto the battlefield using parachutes. Once the battle begins, each player earns money at the start of their turn, chooses their actions, aims carefully, and fires. The last surviving tank wins.

Ammo With Different Physics

Choose from over 20 ammo types, each with its own behavior and tactical purpose. Cost determines how much it takes from your resources, weight affects the projectile trajectory, wind influence changes how strongly the shell is pushed by the wind, and explosion radius defines how much terrain it destroys. Choosing the right ammo for the current situation is just as important as aiming well.

Items and Money Management

Players can also spend their money on useful items during their turn. Parachutes automatically protect tanks from fall damage when the ground beneath them is destroyed, while repair kits can restore lost HP when used at the right moment. Since ammo and items share the same money pool, every purchase matters, and smart resource management can decide the outcome of a match.

Randomly Generated Destructible Terrain

Every battlefield is randomly generated, so no two matches are exactly the same. You can choose the biome and terrain type, such as flat land, hills, or mountains, or leave everything fully random. The terrain is completely destructible, and different shells create different-sized craters, changing the shape of the battlefield during the match.

Use the terrain, wind, physics, strategy, and a bit of luck to outplay your opponents.
