What the site is for
BattleCityPlay combines browser play with guides to controls, local co-op, maps, power-ups and history. Game resources load only after Play, so you can read without starting the emulator.
Home, Online and NES run Tank 1990, a Battle City modification with a lettered TANK menu. The 1985 page runs original Battle City (Japan). The 35-stage atlas describes the original edition. The two editions keep separate manual browser saves.
How we describe the game
We keep observed gameplay, original-game reference material and our own tactical advice distinct. Captured maps have version labels; diagrams explain a tactic without pretending to be official stage art. Unverified features are not added to a guide just to make the page longer.
There are no invented player reviews, star ratings or high-score totals. Corrections should identify the page, game version and the behaviour that differs from the text.
