INTRODUCTION:
Scorched Tanks is a tank warfare game where 1 to 4 human players or
computer controlled opponents, take turns at buying fancy weapons
and shooting them at each other. The more damage a player causes
another, the more money they get. The more money a player receives, the
larger the weapons they can buy. This is a very simple concept, but
extreemly addictive!
This game is related to a very popular game called
Scorched Earth on MSDos machines. I've only played Scorched Earth maybe
five times. But it impressed me so much that I decided that the
Amiga needed a version too. Scorched Tanks is very similar yet VERY
different to the MSDos game.
'Tanks innovates where 'Earth and other lookalikes leave off.
It's simple to understand, yet complex enough to be challenging.
The gameplay and interface are so easy to understand, an 8 year old can pick
it up in no time. It was tested on a group of little kids. They spent
two hours screaming and jumping around as they blewup each others
computer tanks. Basically it's simple to learn and the interface's
layout doesn't take away from the game.
The graphics and music try to add the, all important, Amiga feel
to the game.
It draws people that hate computers.
(Only if you can force them to look at the screen!)
