About This Game

One sheet. One tank. One relentless horde.

Scribble Tanks is a single-player survival roguelite where you roll into ever-larger zombie waves, collect XP souls and scrap, and rebuild your tank for the next attack. Survive a 10- or 20-minute run, defeat the final boss—and then keep going in optional Endless Mode.

A 3D battlefield with the feel of a pencil-sketched scene on graph paper: crisp contours, hatching, and scribbly details instead of realistic military visuals.

Every run starts with a tank. What it becomes is up to you.

Build your tank your way

  • Three chassis: choose the Scout, Rammer, or Artillery tank, each with its own speed, weight, armor, and handling.

  • Your arsenal: keep the main cannon and add up to three weapons. Mount the machine gun, flamethrower, mine layer, rocket launcher, or Tesla coil—or try the circular saw, railgun, frost cannon, mortar, acid launcher, air cannon, and glue cannon.

  • Shape your build: upgrade weapons, drones, and tank abilities. Fully upgraded support weapons unlock a choice between two evolutions. Go for precision, area damage, raw power—or crowd control and knockback.

  • Rare loot, risky choices: open a risk crate for a premium reward and trigger an extra horde. Cursed upgrades offer huge advantages, but always come with a cost.

Eleven enemy types. No easy route.

Eleven core enemy types demand different answers: crawlers, sprinters, and brutes; pistol, rifle, and rocket troops; shield bearers, burrowers, burning and explosive infected; and siege tanks. Elites and bosses add more abilities. Target and destroy boss components to disable attacks or slow the machine down.

  • Enemy tanks maneuver, seek cover, and can repair behind obstacles.

  • Engineers build gun emplacements and barricades in visible stages. Stop them before familiar routes turn into deadly chokepoints.

  • The enemy that defeats you can return in a later run as a named rival, visibly damaged and equipped with a new countermeasure. Defeat it for good to earn a special trophy.

  • Scavengers collect scrap and try to escape. Catch one before it gets away with your loot.

Break the battlefield—or use it

Houses, fences, walls, streetlights, power poles, and even bridges give way under fire. Structures crack, lean, and collapse into debris; fallen trees remain as obstacles. Shockwaves sweep through grass, enemies, and loose wreckage. Fuel, electricity, and ammunition can set off chain reactions.

  • Cannon shells follow a ballistic arc, and hits lose force over distance.

  • Front, side, and rear armor protect differently—and glancing shots can ricochet.

  • Mud, water, elevation, and ground type affect movement and traction. Tracks and terrain change visibly as the battle unfolds.

Weather, light, and five regions

Fight across the village, forest, swamp, quarry, and industrial district. Landmarks—from the gas station and water tower to the sawmill, cemetery, and farm—help you find your way. Two destructible bridges link the riverbanks, as long as they hold. Day turns to night; rain and fog alter visibility. Streetlights, tank headlights, and night vision help after dark, but smoke, terrain, and buildings can hide targets. Fire spreads according to wind and material, while rain slows the flames. Ducks, deer, and birds flee the chaos.

Save objectives. Reclaim regions. Stay alive.

  • Complete missions at the workshop, convoy, or treasure guard to earn upgrades and spare parts.

  • Collect souls to level up, open treasure chests, repair your tank, and keep an eye on your limited fuel.

  • Free rarely besieged regions. Your control carries between runs and grants starting bonuses—but counterattacks may force you to defend your territory.

  • Unlock tanks and starting weapons, upgrade each chassis permanently in the garage, and chase your local high score.

Single-player. Play offline. Includes a tutorial and a detailed handbook.

Roll out. Make the map yours—one sheet at a time.
