This wiki is designed to inform you of all features of BlockTanks, including weapons, customization, updates, maps and more! If you need help finding your way around, please ask any power users.
What is BlockTanks?
BlockTanks is a web-based multiplayer tank game that currently consists of two main game modes: Team Deathmatch and Free-For-All, with other gamemodes such as Capture The Flag or Payload being available on a weekly basis. There are a large variety of maps to play on and over 277,000 players to battle, using a wide range of different weapons.
What are the different game modes?
The multiple different game modes are all different from each other in their own way. There are also two modes that have been removed from the game. In Team Deathmatch, which has 16v16 and 3v3, it used to have 8v8, but it has since been removed. The highest-scoring team gets the win. So you and your team if they die too much even if you killed 100 people without dying. In Payload, you will find it's the same as Control Point, but as you capture the control point, the control point moves toward the other team's base. Once it reaches the opposing team's base your team will earn a point. The more players that are on the payload the faster it goes, and enemies can reverse its path. In Free-For-All, every player is on their own trying to kill the other players. The last game mode was removed from public lobbies and added back. Battle Royale is the only mode where you have only one life (Kind of like Hardcore mode). Rounds are fast with a red storm constantly shrinking the map, making all action end in the middle. It was recently re-added as a public gamemode for a few days for an event. In Capture The Flag, you have to steal the other team's flag while guarding your flag so the other team can't steal it. You may not see all the gamemodes at once, so check out the game mode rotation to see when your favorite mode is featured.
Who designed BlockTanks?
BlockTanks was started in 2016 by Kevin Champagne, the founder of Karate Fox Studios. There are also multiple other developers and moderators.
What are the different teams?
You can either be on the Blue or Red team, the different teams had and still have different block barrier formations.
Anything else I should know?
There are three Global XP Leaderboards each containing 100 players who have gained the most XP in a set period. One is for all time, one is for the month, and one resets each week. Blocktanks also has a complex clan system that all registered users can be a part of. You can make a group with your friends or grind competitively for a top spot on the clan leaderboard. Missions and challenges appear during certain events. Complete tasks to earn rewards and compete with other players on, you guessed it, another XP based leaderboard. Every player has access to their own and other players' statistics (if they let you.)
