Tankz

Mechanized iPhone combat available now for £0.59.

iPhone publisher Clickgamer.com has today announced the launch of Tankz, an action-packed arcade styled game for Apple's iPhone and iPod touch.

Tankz, developed by Australian company Sector3 Games, ( http://wwws.sector3.com.au), is available immediately for mobile game enthusiasts at the low cost of £0.59 via the iTunes store. The single-player 3D game features futuristic hover tanks that must battle against enemy tanks and towers whilst trying to collect flags. Tankz players must watch out for enemy tanks that will hunt and destroy, dropping proximity mines around the level.

"Arcade styled games are always popular with our customers, and Tankz will not be the exception. The action-packed game caters for both left and right handed players, and is easily instructed through responsive single finger movement controls. Sector3 have developed an outstanding, engaging and fun game for the iPhone with longevity as they continue to develop new levels, enemies, weapons and other elements." said Paul Butt, Marketing Executive at Clickgamer.com iPhone publishing.

Tankz provides users with two game play models by score and by time which can then be broken into easy and hard modes. To encourage healthy competition with mobile games fans, Tankz has a global high-score ladder that will save scores locally if no internet connection is available, uploading them when internet is connected.

Seon Rozenblum, founder and developer at Sector3 Games comments, "Tankz is the first game developed at Sector3 that has officially been picked up by a publisher. With Clickgamer's reputation and distribution we are extremely excited about what this partnership means for the game and us as a company."

Tankz has been awarded some amazing 5 star reviews and has received fantastic feedback from excited customers. "We can't wait to see what everyone thinks about the extensive free update currently in production."
