Comments on Battlezone for Android
★★★★★
A bit buggy, but jolly good fun. It brought back memories of a miss spent youth at the local arcade. The buzzy missile things need taming a little too; if they come up behind you, you don't stand a chance. Could do with some of the original radar sounds too. I read comments here, saying, the controls are sluggish and slow...they were in the original game too. It's what made the game infuriatingly good. I'm glad I've remembered my vocabulary of expletives when I get hit too! 😂🤣😆😅 Proper job🙂🙃
★★★★★
Overall, Battle zone is a fun game with great graphics and sound effects, but it has control problems.
★★★★★
An excellent remake of the classic arcade game. If you are a fan of the original or are looking for a different type of shooting game, this is a game to try.

One of my favorite Atari arcade games years ago. This game has room for improvement. Could have a little more speed and maneuverability of tank, volcano in background etc. but nicely recreated. Thanks! Is it possible to have an option to use devices gyro sensors for motion of the tank?
★★☆☆☆
This version of app is the worst game app that I have played to date. I'm being very generous because it's terrible compared to the original. I played the original when it came out and mastered it. The controls that moves the "tank" around and the "fire button" are both very limiting!!! The "radar" doesn't always show other "tanks" or "missiles"and the next thing you know you are "hit/killed" by a fantom shot/missile!!! Ascending "tanks" from the sky firing at you then decending below you!!!
★★☆☆☆
Nothing like the arcade game except for the graphics. The interface to steer left right and move back and forth is slow reacting and sticky, not like the real game. Enemy tanks are slow to react as well. Kudos to the wire graphics and view, very 1982, and true to the original, but the rest of the game really isn't worth the download.
★★☆☆☆
DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP!!! Arcade version I scored over 3 million points on a quarter!!! This 5G phone version totally sucks to the max! NO MULTIPLAYER!!! Tank(s) dropping from the sky killing you!!! Tanks never appearing on the radar screen kill you, Several tanks pop up all round you & kill you, Missiles appear one after another with no delay and drop in a way that you can't turn fast enough to kill then. APP BUGS HAVE NEVER BEEN FIXED OR UPDATED AS OF THIS DATE, TOTALLY GARAGE TO THE MAX!!!
