Tank Wars: Anniversary Edition

Do you like classic game concepts? Do you like old school, pixelated, low-resolution 2D computer graphics? Do you like pixels? We do. We like pixels a lot. We love pixels.

However, Tank Wars: Anniversary Edition is still best played as a hotseat match on a Saturday evening with some friends. Tank Wars: Anniversary Edition is a remake of an adaptation of a number of artillery games from the 80's and 90's. We don't know who is or was the actual pioneer of this game concept back then, so we cannot give credit to a single specific person or company.

Anyway, many games, clones, adaptations, and remakes following this basic concept have been made through the years. Some newer games have a lot of different game settings, modes, and other features as well as modern graphics and effects. However, Tank Wars: Anniversary Edition, as a remake of an adaptation from the year 1997, deliberately distances itself from fancy newfangled developments. Nevertheless, we don't want to bore you or hurt your eyes and ears more than necessary, so we tried to walk a tightrope between pure old school, pixelated, low-resolution 2D computer graphics and some modern-ish concepts and effects.
