When I was a child, one of the games we used to play was called Plastic Soldiers or Army Men. The idea is to knock down the enemy soldiers which have been hidden amongst toy buildings and vegetation.

The game “Plastic Soldiers” is based on this childhood game but instead of throwing stones or marbles, you are given a tank which can fire powerful explosive shells.

This game contains 8 levels of mayhem across different islands. Travel trough lands of ice and snow, through the sea and finally to the moon!

The game is simple to play and most of all its fun! Pick up and play when you have a few minutes spare and enjoy the character voices and taunts. Each level starts when you fire the first shell. You have 60 seconds per level to clear a number of soldiers. Earn bonus time by hitting objects flying in the sky.

When each level starts, it will move from far right to far left so the player can see the layout of the level before play.

There are three levels of play. Easy, Medium and Hard. Each difficulty level will adjust the elements of play and the amount of soldiers you need to get within the time limit. When you run out of time, you have the option to play the level again.

I hope you have as much fun playing this game and I did creating it.

To play the game, you touch and hold your finger on the screen to increase the power meter. While your finger is pressed, you can move it around to control the direction of the tank turret. On release of your finger, the tank will fire an explosive shell which will knock down structures and explode after a short time taking out any soldiers in the vicinity.

The aim of the game and to complete each level is to get a number of soldiers before the 60 second timer expires. Extra time is earned by taking out flying objects like planes, penguins and boats.
