Rules & how to play

The goal

Two tanks face off with bouncing shells and cover between them. Hit your opponent before they hit you. Play a friend or the computer.

Controls

  • Drive and aim with your controls, and fire to shoot.
  • Shells ricochet off walls, so shots can curve around cover.
Tactics

Use the bounce

Bank shells off walls to hit an opponent hiding behind cover where a straight shot cannot reach.

Keep cover between you

Stay behind a wall and peek out to fire, rather than sitting in the open.

Do not stand still

A moving tank is much harder to hit, especially from a ricochet you did not see coming.
