What is Tankenstein?
You control an AI tank hunted by rogue machines in a single-player, third-person action roguelike. Runs take you through a procedurally generated wasteland, where you target enemy weak spots, scavenge scrap, assemble your vehicle from looted equipment, upgrade its CPU, and fight bosses.
For you if...
- +you like slower-paced combat and runs lasting several hours
Not for you if...
- −you want to keep your assembled tank after every death
