THINKTANKS
ThinkTanks is a tank combat game with gameplay that is a lighthearted, fast-paced pandemonium designed to be a blast for the new and experienced gamer alike. Either battling against brain-hungry bots in solo play or going head-to-head against others online, ThinkTanks has something for everyone. The game has both team and individual battlemodes and includes a solo mode where the player must battle against their oppressive alien captors.
“GarageGames believes that players and not marketing hype should drive what games are hits, the player response to ThinkTanks on Mac and Linux indicates that players are driving ThinkTanks to full-on hit status.” comments Jay Moore, GarageGames Evangelist. “BraveTree took the time to really focus in on a fun gameplay mechanic, that is what makes a game like ThinkTanks stand out.”
“ThinkTanks, is a fun addicting family game that takes a competitive edge online or can be a laid back game you can just enjoy playing with your wife or girlfriend. This game is one of the few games that kept me wanting to play more for over a month.” Bryan Walters, play tester comments. Damon Mitchell, Concept Artist and Dad of Morgan age nine, mentions, “I played [ThinkTanks] last night and was getting a real kick, then I put my daughter down in front of it and I couldn't get her off it. She exclaims:' this game is awesome', dad.”
“ThinkTanks was a great game to work on” comments Clark Fagot, Technical Director for BraveTree. “We met every expectation we had and exceeded most. This is a game that casual gamers pick up and enjoy right away. Hard-core gamers put down Battlefield 1942 and Unreal Tournament and play ThinkTanks instead. We've been playtesting this game for 2 months now and nobody is bored yet. I'm very confident that we are giving people a fanstastic game for only $20.”
ThinkTanks is available at GarageGames' website for $19.95.
