Crash #3Apr 1984 · p.80
Producer: Computer Rentals, 16K £5.95 This simply isn't a very good program. The 3D is primitive and the graphics uninteresting. You must take your tank in between minefields to the eventual safety of a road, whilst avoiding fire of enemy tanks. For a start off you cannot move and fire at the same time; if an enemy tank gets into position and fires everything stops and you're dead - no evading; to avoid the enemy you merely turn until they disappear from the screen; if you creep round the edge of minefields then they won't fire on you anyway. So all it adds up to is a dull and boring game. Cursor keys and 0 to fire - allows use of AGF or Protek joysticks.
