Steering a tank with one finger

Choosing and upgrading tanks

The tank hangar holds several monster destroyers to pick from. Weapon setups include two cannons or a single one, and a laser sight or a flamethrower, so you decide how your tank fights.

You can upgrade the tank you have chosen as you go.

Tournaments, enemies and bonuses

Offline play and saving progress

The game can be played without a connection, which the listing points to for situations such as riding a bus or flying. Saving your progress requires an internet connection, and the listing says online play also gives you more bonuses.
