Ratings and reviews

I play this game more than all the other games on my phone combined. I never play multiplayer, though. I only play solo. I'm up to difficulty 10, but with changing wind turned off (it sets wind at the beginning of a game). It has its issues, though. It desperately needs a high score screen and randomized start. The AI weapon choices are not the least bit randomized and somewhat suspect. I had to turn off a lot of boring or unbalanced weapons. The AI is very accurate but kind of stupid.

Mostly enjoyable, except when the scale suddenly changes mid-battle or between bouts. It's infuriating when a specified angle and power hit a target in one turn and a very different one in the next turn with the same weapon and context. The AI player frequently 'cheats"; adapting to those invisible changes.

One of the simplest yet entertaining games ever it's like a relaxing take on the Worms game genre except it using tanks and looses the humour in favour of a chilled theme song it gets a little repetitive with the music though, it could benefit from different maps and absolutely a full score (music soundtrack) to really bring it forward to today, but it's a legend in it's self and it's fun to play as well as being an extremely addictive game, for £3.19 pro introduces more weapons and online play.

What's new

The Spark Pack fuses our latest tech with the classic artillery “lava flow” effect for a fun new twist on a old-school favorite. We are pushing our creativity to the limits with weapons in this release, but keep an eye out for new features and more in the coming months. Thanks for supporting Pocket Tanks over the years. There is plenty more on the way!

This update also includes a fix for some users who were getting stuck refreshing online play matches.
