Players take turns aiming and firing at each other with over 100 weapons of mass destruction including nuclear bombs.

This looks a lot like the Tanks! game that was on the 486. Now that was a cracking game. With updated gfx and network play this will be a good one

Yep that's the one. There does seem to be a rush to recreate the old games at the moment. Not that I am complaining but there must be a fair amount of money to be made
