The game uses a first-person perspective from inside the tank. The main objective is to locate and destroy hostile targets in an arena while staying alive and managing movement through walls, obstacles, and open spaces.

Players drive, turn, aim, and fire as they progress through increasingly difficult combat situations. The DOS version is structured around individual arenas and survival-focused encounters rather than a character-driven campaign.

Keep moving instead of remaining exposed in open areas, and use arena walls as cover when enemies begin firing. Learn the layout of each arena before committing to a long pursuit.

Conserve safe firing opportunities and avoid turning blindly into unexplored corridors. When possible, attack from an angle that lets you retreat behind cover immediately after firing.
