Battle City was one of the earlier games to allow two players to play simultaneously. There are several types of power-ups: Tank symbol gives an extra life, star improves player's Tank (having one star make shots faster, having two stars allow two simultaneous shots, having three stars allow the player to destroy steel), bomb destroys all visible enemy Tanks, clock freezes all enemy Tanks for a period of time, shovel adds steel walls around the base for a period of time and shield makes player's Tank invulnerable to attack for a period of time. In addition, flashing Tanks could be destroyed for power-ups. The game becomes more challenging in later levels, as enemy Tanks may act as decoys to lure players away from their base so that another Tank can destroy it. There are four progressively harder types of enemy Tanks. Examples include brick walls that can be destroyed by having either the player's Tank or an enemy Tank shoot at them, steel walls that can be destroyed by the player if he has collected three or more power-up stars, bushes that hide Tanks under them, ice fields that make it difficult to control Tank and pools of water which cannot be crossed by Tanks. Each map contains different types of terrain and obstacles. A level is completed when the player destroys allĢ0 enemy Tanks, but the game ends if the player's base is destroyed or the player loses all available lives.īattle City contains 35 different stages that are 13 units wide by 13 units high. The enemy tanks attempt to destroy the player's base (represented on the map as a bird, eagle or Phoenix), as well as the human tank itself. The player, controlling a tank, must destroy enemy tanks in each level, which enter the playfield from the top of the screen. There was also a related Game Boy game of the same name. System would follow, and the game would eventually end up in the Japanese version of Star Fox Assault (a Namco-produced game). It is a successor to Namco's 1980 Tank Battalion, and would be succeeded itself by the 1991 Tank Force.
