Awesome Tanks 2 is a top-down cartoon tank game. You drive a small orange tank through maze-like arenas made of stone blocks, shooting enemy tanks and breaking through crates and walls. It is quick to pick up, and the cramped corridors make each fight feel like a puzzle about where to stand.
How to play
Steer your tank around each arena and fire at the enemy tanks that guard it. Stone blocks form the walls, while wooden crates, sandy blocks and brick walls appear to be things you can shoot to clear a path. Enemy tanks have small health bars above them, and your own health is shown in the orange bar at the bottom of the screen.
The panel at the bottom has ten numbered weapon slots. Only the first appears to be in use in the early frames, which suggests more weapons become available as you progress. There is also a menu button, sound controls, a pause button and a help button.
Controls
- Mouse click or tap: play
Tips
- Keep an eye on the orange health bar at the bottom and back away from fights when it gets low.
- Use the stone walls as cover, and peek round corners to fire at enemies rather than driving into the open.
- Shoot crates and brick walls to see if they open up a shorter route.
- Watch for pick-ups lying on the floor, such as the blue item seen in one arena, and drive over them.
- When two enemy tanks are close together, deal with one at a time from a corridor so they cannot both hit you.
Who it's for
Suits older children and teenagers who like action games with a bit of planning. The first arenas look manageable, but later ones with several enemy tanks will need practice.
