[edit] Gameplay

Armor Ambush is a game that gives players control over tanks that battle one another over terrain that offers varying degrees of texture and traversability. Dueling tanks was a theme very familiar to owners of the Atari 2600 since Combat, the game packaged with very nearly every Atari 2600 system ever sold, had a very similar premise. However, Armor Ambush expands upon the simple battles available to players of Combat. The field of battle occupies a region greater than the size of the screen. Players are able to control two tanks and switch between them on command. The terrain is more diverse, featuring areas of foliage, water, and natural barriers. There is also a single player mode that allows a player to battle a computer-controlled opponent.
