About This Game

Threads of War is a fusion of Battle City mechanics and rogue-lite map progression.

Ukraine is under attack by mechanized hordes of unclean forces: weak but numerous demons, fast werewolves, and heavy monsters. Become one of the hundreds of thousands of warriors of light who rose to defend their families, their homeland, and their future. The game tells the story of how Ukrainian territories were liberated during the first year of the war: from Hostomel to Kherson.

The game was developed by two Ukrainians - a father and son - who aimed to convey the story of Ukraine’s liberation in this brutal modern war through metaphors, folklore imagery, and traditional Ukrainian embroidery.

At the same time, our top priority is engaging gameplay. Thanks to extensive development experience (the father is the game designer behind Football, Tactics & Glory), we improved the outdated Battle City mechanics and made them compelling for modern players.

25% of the earnings will be donated to trusted units of the Ukrainian Armed Forces for urgent needs.

The game not only entertains but also reflects our view of the war. Behind each tank icon lies a human life - a person who lived, dreamed, worked, and loved. War means countless human tragedies, and through its mechanics, the game allows players to feel that reality.

We took the core of Battle City, kept its fun elements, but modernized and enriched it with new mechanics like ammo collection, passive and active bonuses, boss battles, and more. We've also created enemies with unique behaviors. As a result, you get endless variety: enemy tank combinations create new challenges, bonus synergies generate fresh combat strategies, and location generators make each battle unique.

After each level, you decide how to progress on the map. Some areas may have valuable bonuses, some let you buy missing shields, and others may allow you to avoid a battle. The map lets you optimize your route based on your playstyle. After each run, you gain experience that unlocks new active and passive bonuses.

In the game, you'll pass through key cities liberated by the Ukrainian army in 2022: liberate the north of Ukraine, take part in the Kharkiv counteroffensive, and drive the enemy from the right bank of the Kherson region.

The game features a cooperative campaign for two players. After completing each level, the player with the higher score gets to choose a bonus first. This can lead to fun and competitive moments between you and your partner. You’ll support each other, steal upgrades from under each other’s noses, and compete for points.


You can unleash your creativity and build your own level. Not only can you design the layout, but you can also place ammo and bonuses, and set the number and types of enemies.
