Tanked: Nolimit City's explosive new slot game redefines warlord warfare

Nolimit City shows you what fighting for domination is really like in its latest release - Tanked. Witness the war between 4 power-hungry warlords who’ll stop at nothing for total domination! This Labs-branded slot is a chaotic masterpiece of destruction. This is the first of its kind for Nolimit City, even following their most recent experimental titles Munchies, Outsourced: Slash Game and Brick Snake 2000. Tanked introduces new features and gameplay that is sure to cause mayhem.

In Tanked, war is personal. In the base game, the reels start at a 6x6 grid but can expand to a massive 9x9, thanks to the explosive Barrel Bombs and Rocket Tank Boosters. Multipliers are scattered across the battlefield, while symbols get upgraded with each collected Multiplier crate. The carnage doesn’t stop there. Meet xLoot™, Nolimit’s new mechanic, where each warlord collects symbols matching their colour.

Each warlord has 3 lives, when they lose each of their lives they will be considered dead and all their respective symbols will be removed from the reels. After 1 round they rise again because, in war, there’s no rest for the wicked. xNudge® and xSplit® take the warfare up a notch. xNudge® will nudge down to the bottom of the reel, turning any symbol into a wild allowing clear passage for each of the Warlords. Meanwhile, xSplit®, splits any symbol horizontally or vertically, doubling the number of symbols in the way.

What’s war without a little heavy artillery? Tank Boosters are the only things that the warlords love. The Rocket Booster targets the wall close to any random rival warlords, removing one of their lives and expanding the reels in the process. The Grenade Booster targets one random enemy removing one of their lives and any surrounding symbols or other enemy. The Power Drill Booster allows the warlord to drive to the largest cluster of its coloured symbol, picking up any multiplier, tank booster or wilds in it’s path whilst also removing any enemy in the way. Lastly, the Airstrike Booster targets up to 3 enemy warlords and causes an explosive pattern removing anything in the blast radius.

The expansion of the reels makes the battleground dynamic. The Rocket Booster and the Barrel Bomb can inflict some damage when used correctly. But that being said the xBomb® can also be as deadly as it removes anything around it when it detonates. Explosions aren’t lacking in Tanked, even when there are no bombs around, if 3 - 4 warlords are close to each other they will martyrdom themselves. If all 4 warlords lose their lives at once this will trigger Mayhem Spins, where the reels expand to 9x9 and a +10 multiplier is added. In Mayhem Spins all the warlords will have 1 life, increasing the chance to clear the reels once they die. If they all die during Mayhem Spins, then 1 additional spin will be awarded and another +10 Multiplier will be added.

The free spins in Tanked are acquired by collecting 3 - 4 Beer Symbols. 3 Beer Symbols trigger 5 Carnage Spins where the Multipliers, Kill Count and Grid size are carried over from the base game. Collection 4 Beer Symbols triggers 7 Carnage Royale Spins where the grid will be set to 9x9 and a +5 multiplier on top of the current multiplier is carried over from the base game. If all characters die in the same explosion during free spins then it will be upgraded to Mayhem Spins and the remaining free spins will be played in the upgraded bonus mode.

If you want to go nuclear, then God Mode can be triggered as a Bonus Buy feature with a chance of triggering a maximum payout of 25,000x the base bet. Tanked is rated as "Extremely Volatile" as the bonus is a high-risk gamble that players have come to expect from the provider. It will usher in more experimental games to Nolimit’s catalogue of games!

Per Lindheimer, Head of Product at Nolimit City, said:

“Tanked is the kind of game where you’re constantly questioning: ‘Was this war really necessary?’ The xLoot™ mechanic takes the chaos up a notch, and we’re excited to see how players take to this wild new feature, hopefully unlocking a whole new era of Nolimit games. Strap in cause this is going to be one messy war!“
