The player controls a tank, in first-person perspective, on a mechanized battlefield against enemy forces equipped with tanks and guided missiles. It is the direct ancestor of every [[First-Person Shooter]], and the US Army even commissioned a customized variant to train its tank troops. Surviving consoles of the game are still very popular with collectors today.
