The player is placed inside a tank, hence the game has a first person view.[2] The tank is equipped with a smokescreen, a missile launcher, a 150mm cannon, and a .50 caliber machine gun.[2] The object of the game is to destroy enemy tanks and helicopters in the area.[2] If the player fires the tank's guns for too long, they will overheat and will take time to cool down.[2]
