Although this demo will give a good idea of what Steel Beasts is like,
it does not contain all the features of the full version. In particular,
the full version has these additional features:
- Multiplayer support, including TCP/IP over the Internet.
- Many more vehicles, including a playable Leopard 2A4 with tutorials.
- More missions.
- Instant Action and Tank Range modes of play.
In addition, you can play any player-created missions. Although you
can create and play small missions with the demo, it is restricted
to missions with only four vehicles in total, and only certain vehicles
are allowed.

If you're having problems with your joystick, make sure that your
joystick is in slot 1 (in the Windows' Game Controllers).
