Facebook required, unfortunately
Originally I wrote the following:
Okay, I know some people are expecting World of Tanks. This isn’t it. But it’s still a very well-designed, good looking single- and multi-player tank game that captures a lot of the WoT feeling with some very nice, varied environments and terrain and really fun gameplay. The music is a bit repetitive (can be turned down) and some of the UI could be polished a bit (e.g., better UI for the upgrades screens; gun aiming reticle a bit more “sniper-like”), but I have to say that for $5 I’m really impressed with the effort here and think it’s a great deal, and the commitment of the developer to keep improving the game. The multi-player sometimes has a lag or two but that over several hours of playing and othwerwise seems polished. I like it and recommend it. Oh, and the thing loads and opens amazingly fast even on an older iMac (512 video card, 12GB RAM). Good work developers.
I am now adding:
I’m now forced to add that although it’s not made clear in the app description, to unlock the best tank in the game, and also to access several features, requires that you have a Facebook account. Politics and concerns about users being a product for Mark Zuckerberg to sell aside, there are many of us who are still not yet, and never will be, on Facebook. This requirement is not mentioned in the app description and definitely should be. You will be unable top play the top “tier” tank without this and to gain certain other benefits. A bit misleading on the developers part. I have lowered my rating because of this fact. If this doesn’t bother you, my original 4 rating applies. Best of luck to the developers.
