My best friend and I are addicted to this game. We go back and forth all day while we're at work and late at night before bed. We buy a new weapon pack every week and the game is fun as hell... some of our matches are hilarious.

Actually I mean to say that I want pocket tanks deluxe Another thing I would like to ask that how can I buy/get more weapons without having any account? If uh can suggest me then I will b very very great full to uh.

Really enjoy playing this game with my 6yr old. I'd love it if you could opt out of map types. The flat one is not very fun but if you want peaks and valleys, you must choose random.

E70%
by E####:

It's super addicting, but they could update it more often.. I've been playing for almost a year and maybe a few weapon packs come out that's it. Maybe new tanks or maps would be awesome. Deffinently maps.

X70%
by X####:

In online play there is no time binding and therefore people don't come back to take their turn. Thus is quite irritating. If someone is not playing they are absconding and looser. Not me who is waiting 30 min and only option is to forfeit. There should be accounting of overall player score and win loss status etc.

A70%
by A####:

Decent game, but Im really surprised theres no death match feature. Shooting at an opponent without the intent to kill gets kind of boring. Any way we could expect this kind of game mode in the future? I think it would really breath new life into the game!

X70%
by X####:

Great game. Good physics. Way to much focus on pay to win though. I get that its a free to play game but id like to see a way to earn at least the "Free" packs. Or something because as is if you get into a match with someone with deluxe pack. Chances are there just going to spam out 100+ damage weapons the entire match. Or bury you indefinitely

H70%
by H####:

Online games need a maximum permissible time to respond rule. I have had to forfeit matches from a winning position because the loser opponent wouldn't take his turn for hours. Really unfair. You need a respond within 5 minutes for you lose rule.

by X####:

Deluxe dosnt even cover half the weapons. so rather than wanting the 2/3rd i dont have. i want a refund. Edit i uninstalled and and now deluxe is gone do not buy this garbage if you ever uninstall you lose deluxe never will i play pocket tanks again nostolgia defeated. And replaced with greed.

This one is classic ! Made me nostalgic with my childhood memories. Thank you developer to bring this game on android platform. You made me feel old by the way. :-(. I just want little crispy graphics and then it's complete !

L70%
by L####:

Its really very slow need to wait for the opponent for a long time.... And there is alo no chat option to wake up the opponent to play his/her turn .. this game could have been better... Looking for improvement s

Totally reminds me of Charr that I used to play on the Commodore Amiga back in the day. Absolutely loved it then. Graphics look more or less the same. I believe the Amiga version could have up to 8 players on a map at any one time either AI or human players. The game is definitely worth downloading.

X70%
by X####:

Its a great game. Except for the fact that there is stuff missing from the game. There should be death and suffocation and more movement like jetpacks. And there should not be so much stuff unavailable to people who dont want to pay for the game. And online play is so confusing. First time I played I didn't know what to do for some time and I didnt know you had to leave the lobby to get to the game. There should be a button to get directly to the game.

I remember this game from years ago. I just found it on Android now. Truly great game!! I like the scaleable A.I., the ability to get rid of ads AND get free weapon packs with deluxe purchase, plus reasonably priced extra packs, the ability to play offline, and the absolute FUN of this game. What makes it exceptional?... The randomness of each game, plus the unpredictability of the wacky weapons, meaning no game is really the same. Excellent work on this game! Highly recommended.

When I downloaded this game years ago I someone deleted it it might of been me but I doubt it. Anyway I was searching tank games and i didnt know want what to download so I scrolled down AND I SAW THE GAME I was so shoked, happy and exited. So I was quite idicting to me so i was completely completed with downloading games and my games nearly so I would recommend you to download this games. Also i want it like you can report people if they hack or use a the ruler. Good luck!:)

Graphics glitched out a few days ago in terms of projectile icons. It gives me the impression they all come from one image with a grid that contains all of the icons but the game doesn't know the proper location within that image of the appropriate icon. I've Uninstalled, and reinstalled. Will update rating when fixed.

B70%
by B####:

Excellent game! Been a fan since the PC version. Much fun. Great weapon animations. 4 stars because o can't get it to play over my Wi-Fi and sometimes the random weapon select distributes the weapons unevenly in my view.

X70%
by X####:

I really enjoy playing this. I really do, but in for the last couple of days all of the sudden, the game will not let me access online mode. I keep getting a message about how my connection is bad and that I need to check my server or try again later. I've turned my Wi-Fi on and off, uninstalled and reinstalled, and I keep getting the same message. My rating stays down until fixed.

H70%
by H####:

One of my favorite games. Only suggestion is to add a force forfeit option in the online game with a timer so when an opponent has neglected to come back and play for a certain period of time we can force them out instead of having to forfeit ourselves. Forfeiting gives a win by default to the opponent and that's not fair, especially if the other person doesn't come back on purpose.

X70%
by X####:

It's great. Just like the PC version. I wish there was a setting to control zoom. It's annoying when the game zooms in after you fire. I'd prefer one simple zoomed out view. The constant movement is disorienting.

X70%
by X####:

It's the classic remade for mobile, very nice. But a note to the *dev* Please for the love of god put a 30 sec- 1 min timer in online play. There is absolutely 0 reason that a game should last more than 5-10min. This person I just played spent 5 min per turn making it a 50 min game, where as my turns where roughly 15-30seconds. This is an extremely poor design flaw. You have to fix it or ill just go back to playing something more fast paced like clash royale.

X70%
by X####:

Love it and there should be more weapons like there is on the pc. Stuff like the kitty cannon. And maybe add a button so u can remind ppl it's their turn or chat. Also make it to where if u have setting changes for bigger explosions or wind and terrain and u start the match then the effects take hold

R70%
by R####:

Excellent game. Only improvement I'd suggest is that you guys add a timer feature especially for online games, right now I've been waiting for over an hour for my opponent to complete his turn.

X70%
by X####:

This game has lots of potential, but right now it is not good. - There is no time limit. I had to wait 4 or 5 mins once and then my opponent shoots. - No leveling. It is much better if you progress as you play like unlocking weapons, fuel and more. - If there was a leveling beginners could have avoid playing with experts. It is much better if there be some sort of rooms that you can create or join so you know who you are playing with. And lots more Uninstalled for now

X70%
by X####:

It takes a LONG time to complete a single match with any player and any Internet connection. The game takes about a minute and a half between shots. Playing local is about the only reasonable way to play.

X70%
by X####:

Reminded me of the old scorched earth game but was sadly disappointing. Wasn't a fan of the point system vs having a life bar. Also the AI hits on first shot almost every game! Talk about frustrating. I may give it another try but not likely.

X70%
by X####:

The game is flawed due to the players. If they get a hit on you and they have more points they will stop playing until you decide to forfeit. If there was a report button or a timer then it might've been better. Also it's not too bad, but if you get sinkholed, quicksand or any dig type attack done to you, it's game over.

Y70%

I have been playing this game for years and am so happy to see it finally come to Android! Is it possible for veteran players who've paid in the past for full versions to get any kind of deal or special weapon packs? That's seriously my only complaint right now. LOVE THE GAME and thanks for porting it.

Y70%
by Y####:

I love this game. Of the hundreds I've downloaded, this is one of five or so that I purchased or spent money on. A couple of suggestions; implimenting an offline high score list. Also, if players could tweak the number of rounds played, maybe as low as five to as high as 25 or even 50. And if you could bundle the remaining, non deluxe weapons for one price, like you did with the deluxe weapons, that'd be great too. Anyway, thanks for making such a great game.

How can I play this game with my friend..there is WiFi option given but it doesn't work. Login with fb option is also not working bcoz the request for the game is not coming on the screen anywhere whereas it is showing request sent in my friend phone

U70%
by U####:

It's really fun but 5 dollars for the whole thing O.O make like 4 or 3 but 5! Also how about implementing a hp mode? Or also how about making a customizable round time hp turns ect. This game is wonderful just missing....everything

Y70%
by Y####:

Based on the old computer game scorched earth, this is a very faithful remake for your phone or tablet. It's one of those simple to learn but difficult to master. The reason why is getting 3 stars and not the four I had planned on giving it is because it's not very descriptive.

O70%

I love to play this game... but i want to play with my friends too over wifi.. i can't play in wifi.. i don't know whats wrong.. i watched some of videos in youtube about how to play over wifi. But in real.. when i click on "invite" button. Nothing happens.. neither in my friends screen. Plz help me. I want to play over wifi..

Ive loved this game for over ten yrs.. Used to play on a PC, now on my huge screen cell lol. This game is like Tetris.. Simple fun and runs flawlessly. Ide give it more than 5 stars if I could..shooot..

by Y####:

I understand you guys want to make money off the game. Making it $5 to access all the weapons. The problem with that is, the weapons get old after using them over and over. You might say, "Making it annoying for you guys will make them want to purchase it even more". Whatever, I think you guys should allow us to level up, u lock weapon and tanks, stuff like that.

Y70%
by Y####:

Very fun game. Only problem I'd say is the matchmaking when you play online. You have experienced ppl playing matches with newbees. And not everyone is going to buy the other weapon packs or had the chance to buy them yet. So it doesn't even make it fun when it's not competitive.

Y70%
by Y####:

I can't believe that I bought the full version, only to buy more items. This game doesn't have an HP mode, only damage. And this game isn't popular enough to have an online match with. I wasted my money and I'm uninstalling this right away.

X70%
by X####:

Really you should put penalty on leaving the game, everytime I play online I have to wait forever for my opponents turn, that's really irritating.

Y70%
by Y####:

I once played this game, it was fun then and is now as well. Though, many of the 'deluxe weapons' were many of the same original weapons, such as the tat ball, carpet bomb, and tge list goes on. Now though you have to pay for all of this. Somewhat of a tragedy.

by Y####:

okay...I noticed a few things...#1, difficulty. TOO F******HIGH!!! #2, you need a chat! #3, the AI gets boring after a bit. It never misses!...*sigh* these are the things that make this thing less than 5 stars in my book. Thank you...fyi a controller support would be nice
