Compete against up to 16 players in this shoot-'em-up, tank-driven game in three game modes: Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch and Capture The Flag.
Prepare for combat in the combative game of strategic maneuvering and precise shooting: Tanktastic.
Before you begin playing this game, you will have to setup an account, free of charge and accompanied with a simple password, on the app. In this massive multiplayer game, you will be engaged in either a Team Deathmatch battle where each team is comprised of up to eight players or a large single-player Deathmatch battle where up to 16 players may compete. The Capture The Flag game mode is also available in this app as well.
Tanktastic has a wide selection of maps, more than 50 tanks to choose from and customizable upgrades for your tanks to give you an extra edge in the game including a charging system, turret engine, smoke grenade launcher, armor-piercing and high-explosive ammunition and an improved radar system. The various other features this game has to offer include local chat rooms, “clans” you can join and a settings menu, where you can modify game controls, the game’s graphics detail and the volume to personalize your gaming experience to your liking.
This third-person shooter is like a modern, multiplayer version of classic Atari game Battle Zone. While this game has decent sound effects and solid 3D graphics, the overall gameplay will seem slow if you engage in Deathmatch or Team Deathmatch battles with less than eight players competing on a large-scale map. Your overall gaming experience will also seem sluggish if you are not fan of games where the tank is primary and only choice of weapon. Because the game’s default controls may seem a tad slow, you might want to consider manually adjusting the sensitivity controls yourself. Speaking of controls, one of the better features of Tanktastic is its touch screen controls, meaning the directional joystick is not fixed in one specific corner of the screen.
Although this game has realistic elements like a detailed UI scope for aiming, it doesn’t exactly have a fully realistic virtual atmosphere and is not exactly instantly addictive like Battlefield or Call Of Duty is, even on mobile platforms. Although this game is free to download, it will still cost you a decent chunk of storage room on your phone as you will need about 138MB of free space on your mobile device.
