### 4/5 — The hardest out of all the doodle games

*2017-03-28*

In my opinion, this is the hardest of all the Doodle games. You basically need to know tanks to be good with this game. This is different then the other counterparts

### 3/5 — PLEASE READ!

*2016-02-07*

You should add more nations and add different types of vehicles, and make the current tanks more basic but keep the main ones. And also make it so the hints recharge like in doodle g o d.

### 4/5 — It is good but could use something...

*2015-12-27, version 1.2*

1. It should have more countries
2. Should get hints for free (watching videos)

### 3/5 — Enjoyable

*2015-10-27*

Very interesting and fun. Ordering hints however may be bugged and needs more nations then the USSR because It almost feels like it's not worth the purchase.

### 3/5 — Content

*2015-10-19*

A fun addition for those doodle fans into the era. Not very intuitive on some combinations (figuring to engine components to make "heavy tank hull" took me awhile). One thing that miffed me was the description details "multiple vehicles that fought in Africa and Europe" and this implies a variety of countries are in game. Currently it's just the USSR and they *technically get away with the Africa comment with UK lend lease vehicles. Very disappointing. Hope some actual content comes in now that we're about 6 months past release.

### 3/5 — Needs more content

*2015-10-17*

Now

### 4/5 — More nation

*2015-08-22*

Will you be adding more nations? Like Germany, USA and the U.K

### 4/5 — Needs new things

*2015-08-15*

Add more nations, and make more fun like the other Doodle games, it does feel like chore trying to get the parts

### 4/5 — Good so far

*2015-06-19, version 1.2*

This game is great. It is challenging so is good as it takes a bit of time and thought to complete which is good and it is also full of info. This is great if you enjoy tanks and history of WW2. Only the USSR so far so hope they add more soon but good all round :)

### 4/5 — Great game needs more

*2015-05-14*

Good and similar to the others, but you need an option to give us free reactions/ hints through ads or just over time. Especially since we paid for the game. Also needs more content. I have finished everything with nothing to do now.

### 5/5 — READ BEFORE YOU BUY

*2015-05-13*

This is NOT a game where you blow up other tanks. There is ABSOLUTELY no "Gameplay" This is a PUZZLE game. A game where you make combinations of parts of tanks to get more combinations and try to make something from those parts. NO SHOOTING, NO DRIVING. 

That said, this is a fun puzzle game where it provides historical background to the tanks you are making. For now, there is only Russians, but pray that there will me more counties coming soon. In total, the game is pretty decent.

### 4/5 — Great game, but need help

*2015-05-12, version 1.0*

Its a great game but I'm stuck with 102 elements please help. I need one more element in design bureau and heavy tanks. Please help!

### 1/5 — Very disappointing

*2017-06-12, version 1.2*

I decided to buy a couple frames because it's such a chore to guess combinations, only to discover the frames don't even work. Putting this out there so other people don't waste their money

### 1/5 — Genau wie die anderen Teile...

*2016-03-19, version 1.2*

Sehr gut gelungen. Leider gibt's erst ein Kapitel. 
Warte schon auf updates! 
Warte jetzt schon zu lange auf neue updates!
Keine updates, stattdessen: Doodle Tank Blitz, um den Leuten mehr Geld abnehmen zu können! 😠

### 1/5 — Ужас

*2016-01-04*

Тоже самое что и танковые мастера и ещё за это плагиатство надо платить деньги

### 1/5 — Really boring

*2015-07-25, version 1.2*

Love the other doodle games even with their foibles. This is just...boring. Matches are unguessable. Feels like a chore.

### 1/5 — Лохотрон

*2015-05-29*

Цена почти 120 рублей
Думаете купили игру, а нет разрабочики сделали все чтоб еще на вас заработать, без вложений денег играть не возможно!!! Игра превращается в симулятор перетаскивания иконок(((

### 1/5 — Worst Doodle Game so Far

*2015-05-23*

I realize that's a strong statement, but hear me out. Loved this game series since day 1 almost. Immediately fell in love with the way each element is made through sensible combos, and there are multiple ways to get them. Doodle Devil was the same, but instead the focus is evil. Doodle Kingdoms, kinda makes sense (I have issues with it), but other mechanics make up for logic flaws, making elements as easy to unlock as past Doodle games.

Doodle Tanks has no such mechanics. Every element can be made with one combo recipe only, no work-arounds. To know/figure combos, you need like a PhD in tank history, or to be a complete tank-history nerd (it's that hard). All together, this game is impossible to beat WITHOUT BUYING HINTS.

I get what JoyBits tried to do, integrating history into a Doodle game format, but it doesn't work here. Wikis barely help, and the combos barely make sense, but worst is the game just expects you to know this stuff and doesn't explain why the combos work. 

Doodle games are casual, made challenging because it makes you think about why, say, Energy+Swamp=Life. That worked in the past, but needs a new tact--a new GAME--here. DO NOT SPEND MONEY ON THIS GAME. NOT WORTH THE TIME/MONEY.

### 1/5 — money pit...

*2015-05-13*

Like all good games, the subsequent versions get progressively worse.  Not just because the matches make no logical sense, but because of the in game purchase prices.  

Because the matches make zero logical sense, the frames are a huge help.  HUGE.  otherwise you are aimlessly dragging boxes together like an idiot.

Why is the price almost three dollars for just TWELVE hours for the frames???  It should be indefinite.  I already paid for the game ... I'm willing to pay for frames, but not three dollars for twelve hours.  A little ridiculous.  Doodle god was the only good one where the matches actually made some sense and it wasn't a complete rip off...

### 1/5 — Annoying pop up

*2015-05-13, version 1.0*

Love these types of games in general, however on this occasion it is spoiled by the continual pop up telling you to use a hint if you are stuck (even if you have just used one) which gets in the way of the gameplay.  Once would have been enough - I do not need to be intrusively reminded every few clicks - will happily revise if this issue is resolved.

### 1/5 — Не работает

*2015-05-12*

Не работает на 6ке, инет есть
НЕ РАБОТАЕТ, КАРЛ

### 1/5 — Не рекомендуется к приобретению за деньги

*2015-05-12*

Это копия «Tank Masters». Та вышла раньше на два месяца и бесплатна для загрузки. Прогресса в контенте никакого.

А тем кто это выпустил, да ещё в такую цену, чтобы сделать «скидку» 50% к 9-му мая — позор!

### 5/5 — Thanks for the Update!

*2017-08-26*

Hard to believe it's been over a year since my last review asking for an update. Well I'm glad that not only did I get the feature I asked for (which I, to my great embarrassment, continue to use), but there was also a new country added!

I do hope it doesn't take another year for the next update to come out (America? Britain?), but regardless, I am having a blast with this. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Wie der rest

*2016-08-05, version 1.2*

Es ist zwar wie der Rest aber total interessant und spannend

### 5/5 — Jh'

*2016-01-10*

Jeux très bien très sympa mais dommage qu'il n'y est qu'une seul nation vivement la mise à jour pour qu'il y est + de nation

### 5/5 — DOODLE TANK

*2015-11-11*

Jeu de logique un peu à la "one again" pour trouver les combinaisons malheureusement on nous promet plusieurs nations et la seul disponible à ce jour est l'URSS alors que le jeu a quand même quelques mois

### 5/5 — New nations

*2015-10-18*

You should add some new nations to doodle tanks this is an awesome game but one you finish the Russians off then what do we do now I think you should add Germany, France, America, Britain and maybe Japan

### 5/5 — Needs more content..

*2015-10-12, version 1.2*

Awaiting an update with tanks from non-Soviet countries, but theres 105 elements within that category, so its good start.

Outside of content, its not easy to figure out each element.. Combine some gun and a hull, and you form some tank? Or two techs and you get a soviet engineer? Difficult.. But i brute force these games anyway, so i eventually get em all

### 5/5 — Супер ✌🏼️

*2015-09-19*

Игрушка отличная, как все другие от этого разработчика. Правда русскую ветку прошел за 2 дня.. Будут ли другие ветки?

### 5/5 — Good update. Fixes languages

*2015-05-27, version 1.1*

Very clever concept for tank game. New type of puzzle game play

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2015-05-14*

The best in the series so far. Keeping the mechanics and improving on them. Mostly logical combinations. No stupid bonus content. Can't wait for more countries! This exact design would be AWESOME as a gun-building doodle game. That's my recommendation.

### 5/5 — Great game but needs more

*2015-05-14*

I hope that Their will be more games like this.
