Cranial Tank is a game of tank warfare. It is not a game for the light-hearted or simple-minded, but a game for the logical-minded.
The concept is this: there is a simple programming language used to give tanks commands. The full list of commands is written and loaded into a tank. Everyone's tank is then unleased into an arena. Everyone holds their breath in anticipation as the tanks fight in a battle-royal to the death. In the end, only one mind can win. Will you create it?
The Language is designed to be as simple as possible. It is not a full programming language by any means. By having a simple language it reduces the chance of the expert programming being able to easily rule the game. It does not take a programmer to make a tank, but it certainly helps.
