Have you seen the Scorched Tanks game we put on our coverdisk back in issue 40? If you have, then you'll already be familiar with the game style, but if you haven't, let me explain what's going on.

It's your ship against up to seven others, in a battle to the death. Your only means of attack are your stock of missiles. You set the angle, set the power, make sure you've chosen the right type of missile and then fire it. Finally, you get to watch the explosion.

There are all sorts of options, all sorts of weapons, different types of shields and terrains to mess around with and the computer opponents can even be tailored to make things that much harder (or easier). It's very similar to Scorched Tanks, but different enough - with loads of weapons and things, and most importantly an eight-player mode - to warrant a look.

An eight-player game is a riot, and with all those options you could be playing it for ages before you get bored.
