Pocket Tanks...Wooo Hoooo!!!

[Zeigan]

Talk about addicting. Nothing like lobbing artillery shells back and forth for a few hours. I think i grabbed it off apples site. Probably the only shareware game i actually endedup buying.

Name is suggestive, but at least it isnt pocket pool or pocket rockets. hehe.

what is it?

 

[Decado]

Like Scorched Earth 15 years back on PC. or a much better version of Dome wars.

 

[Zeigan]

It is just a simple turn based artillery game that gives you something like 30 different weapons. You set the angle and speed of your shot and thats it

That's it. Exactly.

Minimalistic graphics.
Primitive strategy.

I love it too

I think that Scorched Earch is still the best ver of it! Nuclear warhead or death's head baby! *l*

what about worms? is there a version for mac?

 

[Inline_guy]

Boi... Afraid not. I wish their was. I would buy it in a second! One of the few computer games that I really like.

Worms Blast the puzzle game is out though. It looks fun, but not the same.

I think I'm gonna port Pocket Tanks on my TI89 calculator to be able to play it even when my GF's using the Mac

 

[Zeigan]

toast: if you do, let us know when it is finished. I would like that too...hehe

The fastest game of artillery you’ll ever play. Pocket Tanks is designed to be easy to learn, and fun to master. All the excitement of lobbing projectiles over a mound of dirt without all the complicated details found in most artillery games.
