World of Tanks Blitz is a mobile game that is based on the popular World of Tanks PC game. It is a free mobile game that features fast-paced, action-packed, and addictive battles that can be played with as little as 3 tanks on each team.
Gameplay
The gameplay consists of using tanks to destroy enemy tanks and capture their base. Players can choose from a variety of tanks, including light tanks, medium tanks, and heavy tanks. Players can also unlock and upgrade tanks as they progress and earn experience points and credits.
World of Tanks Blitz is a mobile-based offshoot of the original World of Tanks MMO. It is a 3D, third-person shooter that requires players to control a tank in order to defend themselves against the enemy team. The gameplay consists of two teams of five players each, with each team starting in opposite corners of the battlefield. Players are then tasked with either defending the base or attacking the other team's base.
The game has two types of tanks to choose from; heavy and light. Heavy tanks are not only able to take more damage, but they also possess more powerful weapons, whereas light tanks are more agile and possess guns with higher rates of fire.
The game features a variety of game modes, the most popular one being "Domination." The game mode is fairly straightforward; the player's team must capture the three points on the map before the enemy team does.
Graphics
The graphics in the game are very good for a mobile game. The tanks and the maps all look very realistic and detailed. The tanks and maps can all be altered and customized to the player's preference. The game is graphically oriented in a 3D environment, utilising the Unity engine. The game engine is fairly simple, and the graphics are not the game's focus.
Replayability
World of Tanks Blitz is a very replayable game. There are many different tanks and maps to play on. The game also features a variety of modes to play, such as training, arcade, and singleplayer modes. The game has no set end point and can be played for as long as the player wants. Though World of Tanks Blitz is still in its beta testing stage, it has already succeeded in bringing in a range of players. The game is fairly easy to get into, so it is easy for players to get to grips with the game.
