What players say

Star Tank is an ultra-challenging arcade shooter that mixes Galaga with a rail shooter aiming mechanic. Players split on controls: keyboard is considered bad, controller is recommended, but there is no mouse support. The game has no save or continues, forcing players to master its 20 stages in a single session. Some find it too punishing for modern tastes, while others love its retro difficulty.
