Description

The objective of Bolo is to maneuver your tank through the maze, seek with your radar and destroy 6 enemy bases. Each base is continuously manufacturing a variety of opponent tanks. The tank types vary from the primitive drone version encountered early in the game to the faster torpedo tanks and the deadly hunter/killer tanks. The intelligent assassin tanks will pursue you at high speed by the most efficient route.
