Tank Attack

Roll your armored beast into the crossfire, dodge incoming shells, and return fire with pinpoint mouse aim before the enemy column overruns you.

Tank Attack doesn't bother with a story or a tutorial, and honestly? It doesn't need one. You roll a steel box with a cannon, arrow keys getting you from cover to cover while your mouse swings the turret and fires. That simplicity is the whole pull. One moment you're kiting three enemy tanks around a broken wall, the next you're reversing hard because a fresh wave is spawning behind you. I died a lot early on, mostly because I got greedy and pushed too far forward instead of letting the enemies come to me. The rhythm of the game is what kept me hooked. There's a constant little tension between moving and aiming—your hull takes a second to respond, your turret tracks the cursor, and when a shell lands just next to you, you feel it in your gut. Enemy tanks aren't geniuses, but they don't need to be. They pressure you with numbers and angles, and the screen starts feeling smaller than it is. Grab the repair wrench or ammo crate when they drop, because later waves don't give you room to breathe. It won't blow your mind with graphics; it's functional and clear, which is exactly right. You always know what's you, what's them, and what's cover. If you want a quick burst of shooting that respects your time but still punishes mistakes, Tank Attack does the job. Just don't expect to finish a run casually—the difficulty ramps quietly, and suddenly you're the one being cornered.

Use arrow keys to play this game and mouse to aim and shoot.

Keep moving after every shot; stopping makes you an easy target for multiple tanks. Use mouse aim to pre-angle your turret before peeking out from behind cover. Prioritize enemies spawning closest to your rear—flanking tanks end runs quickly. Grab repair and ammo pickups immediately, even if it means falling back a little. Let enemies come to you in later waves instead of chasing into open ground. When outnumbered, circle around obstacles to split enemy tanks into single-file shots.
