The story of Tank Wars is one of survival and strategy. As the player, you must protect your radar base and yourself from waves of enemy tanks that appear on screen. The environment is a maze-like area where each side has a limited amount of space to move around in. You will need to use all your wits and reflexes to outmaneuver your opponents and stay alive.
The gameplay of Tank Wars is fast-paced and action-packed. You control a tank that can move left or right, fire bullets, and avoid being hit by enemy tanks. The goal is to destroy all the enemy tanks while protecting yourself from their attacks. With each level, the difficulty increases as more enemy tanks appear on screen. You will need to think quickly and make split-second decisions to succeed.
Tank Wars was released for the Colecovision console in 1986.
