- BattleTabs is a competitive turn-based strategy game that pits Vikings against sea monsters
- Take on other players in a fast-paced multiplayer mode
- Or take your time with the relaxed 24-hour shift timer
Back when Adobe Flash was arguably the biggest engine around, the simple pleasure of two diametrically opposed forces colliding in cartoonish carnage was all the rage. Now, developer Gangbusters Ltd is trying to bring back some of that vibe with the new BattleTabs game.
BattleTabs pits Vikings against sea monsters as you battle in fun, fast-paced PvP. Build your own custom fleet and fight in a Battleship-inspired strategic battle that blends cartoonish action and surprising depth into your tactics.
Of course, people live busy lives! And if you don't even have time to get into a game of BattleTabs, how about trying the 24-hour turn-based mode instead? Make a move every day for a slower, more deliberate attempt to demolish your opponent.
Cartoony but clever
When it comes to strategic battles that go for a cartoonish aesthetic, there tends to be a fine line between adorable and annoying. Luckily, I think BattleTabs falls into the former, with a number of different strategy options and more appearing to be available, it will definitely give even the most demanding strategy gamers plenty to play with.
