Diep.io vs Tanki Online
Diep.io
Diep.io is a fun tank-like IO game where players play as pencil-drawn tanks on a piece of white (and sometimes gridded) paper filled with other hostile tanks as well as a variety of obstacles and Polygons. Shooting at Polygons and other players will earn you points to level up your tank to the next tier, unlocking a wide range of upgrades (or "classes" as the game calls them). At frequent intervals, AI-controlled bosses will be spawned allowing players to work somewhat cooperatively to earn a ton of experience points.Many players are calling out Diep.io as being a clone of the previously popular Tank.io (not sure what happened to Tank.io though), but considering that it's currently the last game standing, I guess it's safe to say that new players will never know about Tank.io but will instead be able to enjoy its legacy through Diep.io.
Tanki Online
Tanki Online is an excellent blend of intense and somewhat fast-paced, first-person shooting with some awesome-looking (in an old-school kind of way) tanks. Chasing other players across the map on your tank or ambushing them is surprisingly fun and, in spite of the multiple deaths, the game is extremely entertaining indeed! The game also offers a huge variety of maps, from the tundra to desert battles, and battle modes, both team and solo modes. Players can also customise their tanks by adding camouflage, swapping out turrets and even refitting your tank’s hull. With every increase in rank, players get to unlock new gear, tank models and additional items, like mines too.Playing on Tanki Online is certainly an addictive experience. After all, it's not often you'll get that "just one more match" feeling right after the previous match ended. This is the sort of game that will keep you coming back for more and it’s free to play!
Oh, and for players who love the shiny new Tanki X, they should really play Tanki Online and experience the game at its roots. They may grow to have an increased appreciation for the new and improved game.
