Thumb Tanks

About This Game

Thumb Tank is a pure competitive splitscreen multiplayer game for two to four players. All the basic game mechanics can be learned in less than five minutes, so anyone can just pick up a gamepad and play along. At the same time, it offers tactical depth for more experienced players by combining weapons and power-ups.

Tanks

Choose from eight different tanks, each with their own special ability: burst fire, shield, nitro drive, cloaking device, electromagnetic pulse, air support, a self shooting turret or a attacking support drone.

Ranks

The simple rank system allows you to play with more or less experienced players, with better players entering the match with a handicap and inexperienced players with advantages.

Talents

Choose from multiple talents that can give you the deciding edge in certain moments of a match.

Pickups

Collect pickups that boost your tank’s health or give you special weapons which will make your opponents fear you.

Upgrade Draft

After each round, a small selection of nearly 20 tank upgrades – each again in four possible strengths – is available for selection. The player currently furthest behind in the standings gets to choose first, and so on. This gives lagging players a chance to catch up and keeps the games exciting.

Medals and scoring

Although the goal is of course to eliminate opponents, Thumb Tanks rewards equally courageous play. Collect medals and thus points in more than 20 categories, from accuracy to healing health points.

Game modes

Currently there are six different game modes. From classic deathmatch to game modes in which multiple players must team up against one. In some modes players earn points for eliminations, in others for completing game mode specific tasks.
