Initially there are 20 missions available which all use preset layouts. The game is ended after being defeated with 0 lives remaining. The player initially starts with 3 lives and earns an extra life for every 5 missions completed. However, previously destroyed enemy tanks from the mission will not be respawned, making it gradually easier to progress.
When this happens, the player will lose a life and the current mission will be reset. The player has a single hit point and will be defeated if receiving damage from bullets or mines, including the player's own. All tanks leave tracks behind themselves. This can destroy certain blocks and additionally penetrate through unbreakable blocks. The player and some enemy tanks possess the ability to place mines, which detonate on a timer in a moderate blast radius, or prematurely, by proximity if approached or if shot outright. There are also potholes, which tanks are blocked from crossing but bullets are able to. Although the playing field is two-dimensional, the vertical stacking of blocks can at times obscure visibility. Since most bullets can ricochet, combat between tanks often requires predictive aiming and angular judgement to strike moving targets while avoiding incoming fire from sufficient cover. Gameplay involves manoeuvring around the arena and attacking enemy tanks. The arena plays in two dimensions within a three-dimensional landscape, and consists of rectangular blocks which serve as obstacles in tanks' paths and bullet trajectories.
