How to play
Tank Trouble is an early tank game in which strategy matters when you try to hit your opponent with a projectile. The developer says you can play single player, two player, or three player, so the game supports a solo session or a match with others. You move your tank and fire, and the challenge is lining up a shot that connects with the other tank rather than missing.
Aim matters more than speed here. Because the game is built around hitting an opponent with a projectile, you want to think about where your shot will travel before you fire, and you want to keep your own tank out of the path of incoming fire. The game sits in the shooters category and is tagged as a shooting game.
Controls explained
Player 1 has a move control and a shoot control. Player 2 also has a move control and a shoot control. Player 3 has a move control and a shoot control as well, so each player in a three player match gets their own set of inputs.
Familiarize yourself with the controls for your player before the match starts. The fact pack lists control categories for each player.
Tips
- Line up your shot before you fire, since the goal is to hit the other tank with a projectile.
- Keep moving after you shoot so the opposing tank has a harder time returning fire.
- In a two player or three player match, watch the other tanks as well as your own position.
- Pick single player first if you want to learn how the tank handles before facing friends.
- Review the control categories for each player before a three player game begins.
