Death Tank is a 2D multiplayer versus shooter, set on a hilly terrain. Similar to a real-time Scorched Earth or Worms, it supports up to 7 differently-colored tanks with a range of weapons to battle it out. The terrain on which this occurs, an ever-decreasing yellow landscape, is completely obliterated by the players during gameplay or otherwise gradually whittles down to a flat plain.

The original Death Tank was a bonus game in the Sega Saturn version of PowerSlave. Its sequel/update was Death Tank Zwei, hidden in the Sega Saturn version of Duke Nukem 3D. Death Tank and Death Tank Zwei were developed by Ezra Dreisbach for Lobotomy Software. Dreisbach, who now works for Snowblind Studios, has stated that he would like to make a stand-alone version of Death Tank at some later date.
