Free App Friday: Pocket Tanks
Free App Friday: Pocket Tanks
For me, high school consisted of using my MacBook Pro in class to play one game, and one game only: Pocket Tanks! I don't remember a single day in the second half of my high school career that I didn't play this. So, imagine my delight, when it showed up in the iTunes App Store.
Earlier in July, Blitwise updated the app to make it faster for older generation iOS devices and optimize its performance on the iOS device. The app is offered as a free version featuring 35 different weapons, though you can shell out an extra $4.99 for 75 more. The free version is great, but when you become addicted to this game, you'll see that 35 weapons just doesn't satisfy that barbaric need to destroy the other team's tank!
Pocket Tanks for iPhone looks simliar to its OS X counterpart, so it's easy to just pick up and start playing. The game never gets old, and you are always faced with a new challenge as no two scenarios are alike. Test your memory, digital depth perception, and shot accuracy with this incredible version of the all-star Mac game. You can also play with a buddy in pass 'n' play mode.
After two years, I don't use any other third-party app as consistently as I once did, except for Pocket Tanks.
