### 5/5 — Very good game

*2026-05-03*

Very good game, very good gameplay, servers for multiplayer don’t exist anymore please bring back

### 5/5 — Рекомендую

*2026-02-01*

Отличная игра, не требует интернет, не пытаеться упароться в графику, она тут простая, понятая. Даже мультиплеер локальный есть, все управление интерактивное.

### 5/5 — So much potential

*2025-09-25*

I’ve always liked this game and it’s very easy to see how much potential this game has. I wish the developers came back with a surprise to update more or make a remastered version of this game

### 3/5 — Less than stellar control

*2024-10-24*

Controls okay with touchscreen interface, but would be excellent with controller support.

### 4/5 — Great game, but seems to be abandoned

*2024-02-12*

I have to say, this is a really good, simple game. I like it’s retro, simplistic styling. I also enjoy how challenging it is. However, there is an issue. 

ITS DEAD.

The last update was over 8 years ago and the whole games “campaign” can be beaten in about 30 minutes. Not only this, but there are basically nobody actually playing this anymore, so the online mode is useless. Which is pretty bad considering it means that a bunch of maps are going completely unused.

Another bad thing is that any options to customise your tank is blocked by a paywall, and since it’s abandoned then nobody will bother paying for it anyway.

There is a way to play the online PvP mode through, as you can send an invite to your friends. 

Overall, I love this game but I really wish that it was more popular. It may be old, but it sure is a lot better than any new mobile game.

Please resurrect this game.

### 5/5 — Отличная игра, всем рекомендую!

*2023-04-28*

Надоел вот блиц, а эта игра как что то новое и захватывающе. Скачивайте, не стесняйтесь)

### 4/5 — Ихвельхт

*2023-04-09*

Мне эта игра кажется немного стрёмной, сейчас расскажу. Ну во первых какие то стрёмные звуки, во вторых стрёмная отмосфера, в третих эти не разукрашенные модели. Прямо похоже на жанр <найденная кассета>

### 5/5 — I remember this game when I was 14

*2022-11-11*

Nostalgia my god

### 4/5 — Please add more levels

*2022-05-13*

I really like this game but you need to add more levels I got this two days ago and I’m already done with all the levels can you please add some more

### 5/5 — Лучшая игра детства на равне с фнафом и pixel gun

*2022-01-29*
