The player controls a tank. Options for camera placement include a first-person view, a third-person view from above-and-behind the tank, a directly-overhead view that follows the tank around, and a long-distance directly-overhead view that shows the entire playing field. There's also a "radar" view in the upper right corner of the screen. The player is allowed to customize the stats of the tank at the beginning of the game, trading off between speed, hit points, and ammunition. In single-player mode, the object of the game is to collect all of the flags in order to proceed to the next level. There is also LAN-based multi-player. Subsequent games in the series added special weapons (each of which becomes available upon reaching a specific level), additional enemy types, additional items/power-ups, and additional environmental features on the playing field.
