PlayedToDeath - 5/5 I am still smarting at the thought that I paid $60 for Spore, while Tank Universal clocks in at a mere $10. This, in my mind, catapults it from "Hey, this is a pretty good game!" into "Everyone should buy this game" territory. + Read More

TheEntertainmentReview An arcade tank shooter game with tons of variables has a quality to it that is highly addictive that will pull players back to the game time and time again.

GameChronicles – 81% One of the best kept secrets of this summer; a little indie game called Tank Universal. It’s a clever mix of Battlezone meets TRON with tanks instead of lightcycles – at least in gameplay and visuals, but there is also quite a bit of strategy lurking beneath the run and gun gameplay. The trick is to find the willpower to actually stop playing this game. It is quite addictive. + Read More
GameFocus – 78% Tank Universal is a game that appears to be the love child of the movie Tron and the game Battlezone, but has become it’s own entity running away from its parents like all children do, or should do.
