'''''ThinkTanks''''', also called '''''TT''''', is an online multiplayer [[third-person shooter]] available for [[Microsoft Windows]], [[Mac OS|Mac]], and [[Linux]]. It was developed by [[BraveTree Productions]] and marketed by [[GarageGames]] and [[Shockwave.com]].

==Gameplay==
An alien race has stolen human brains and put them in control of war-fighting tanks on their homeworld. The player has managed to escape the alien mind control and now must battle against sinister robots in order to free other humans. Driving fans tend to enjoy the light tanks, which are speedy but have weak armor. Methodical and crafty players gravitate toward heavy tanks, which are extremely reinforced and make excellent sniping tools. Medium tanks are versatile and offer the best of both worlds as they easily accommodate different map styles. Players start out with weapons contingent on vehicle type and quickly graduate with the help of various powerups. Two gameplay modes, each with individual and team play, offer countless strategies and can further be enhanced by bots with intelligent AI.  

There are three single-player game modes: in Solo play, the player has to beat level after level, rotating through Lush, Spooky, and Frantic maps with progressively harder bots to fight. A boss level occurs every 4 levels. Target Practice pits a player against an army of disarmed bots to test their aim. Quick Play causes a quick match on any map between the player and 6 bots in "indie" battlemode- anything that moves is a target.

(contracted; show full)

When playing two on two in battlemode the first team mate to be eliminated is put into observer mode and can follow their remaining team player until the match is won, the player in observer in then re-spawned for the start of the new match. When playing two on two in scrum mode eliminated players are re-spawned immediately just like a regular game.

*Racing: i.e. Racing@Jerry's in this gameplay you drive around a huge map trying to get to the finish line first!
