✦ AI summary

Tank Mayhem is praised by players for its fun tank combat gameplay, weapon variety, customization options, and smooth feel, especially when played with friends either locally or via Remote Play Together. However, the game suffers from a dead online population with no available servers, making multiplayer impossible without local or direct connection, and the single-player content is minimal and short. Players recommend it only as a casual local multiplayer experience with friends or family present, not as a standalone purchase for online play.

Having a lot of fun with the game so far. There are a tonne of different weapons and a lot of customisation options so it has pretty good replay value. It's definitely better playing with friends in person, but Remote Play Together works well for playing online too. It was a little confusing getting through the tutorial at first, but other than that it's been a lot of fun and I'd definitely recommend giving it a go :)

[quote][b]Note: Dead PvP game[/b] This game contains no meaningful single player content. There are no available servers and no player population. This game cannot be played as intended.[/quote] "Tank Mayhem" is an unabashed, lazy ripoff of Combat (Copyright Atari, 1977), following the exact same formula... tank combat on a top down 2D plane, ricocheting bullets. A couple of gimmicks have been added but otherwise this is pretty much the same game, yet still somehow not as good, and as the data shows, a dismal failure here on Steam Direct. Many lazy "amateur" developers don't pay attention to their obligations under copyright law, and often steal the ideas of actual, real game developers without credit, such as the "developer" here has done. Putting aside the unethical intellectual, creative and moral bankruptcy of stealing someone else's game concept, this is also breaking that unwritten law of stealing other people's game ideas... you should at least try to do better than the game you're ripping off. "Tank Mayhem" is considerably worse than Combat. The game is really simple and unambitious in terms of implementation, more of a tech demo or one of those cases where an amate…

Definitely getting a throwback to my childhood with Tank Troubles! Been playing this with my siblings and its a great way to spend some time together. I guess the only caveat is that without people with you in-person, or online, the single player maps are short. But aside from that, all is good. Power ups are creative, and the option to customize to your liking is great! Would recommend for those wanting a feel for retro Tank games with a friend or siblings!
