Scorched Earth? Or is this the one before that?

Scorched earth!

I still play Scorched Earth with my friends while having a few beers

Pssh, I'm not that old.

...I'm actually this old.

Scorched earthhhhh

I miss MSDOS 6.22

If no one guesses right this will be a massive shot to my ego, which is already on life support

Me, me, me! Waves hands furiously.

I used to love Scorched Earth. Now if I want that fix I play Shell Shock.

I remember it well. The ultimate shot was called Deaths head and it destroyed half the poligon. Later versions has way more options for shooting including lasers.

Scorched Earth: The Mother of All Games. Die Commie Pigs!!!

Scorched Earth. Talk about a flashback. Tank Wars was another fun one.

All the computers in the Electronics lab had it installed on them; we wasted so much time playing. That was such a complete screw-off class, haha.

Loved loved Scorched Earth. The game is still fun even with it's dated graphics.

Scorched Earth

I remember it very well! Played it far too much!

TSAR BOMBA!

No, but I'm pretty sure I played a flash port of it.

If you ever feel the urge to play again, there is a phone game called Pocket Tanks. Does a great job recreating the game.

My little brother and I played the hell out of it. Especially when we figured out you could change the last words that your tank says right before it blows up. We thought that was hillarious.

I played this a LOT on the IBM PS2 computers at my highschool! We made all sorts of custom death responses. My proudest moment was only having enough money to buy a Mag Deflector before the round and then having it bounce a would-be direct MIRV strike onto a friend's tank beside me.

Great game. I remember playing a lot of the successor "Scorched 3D" as well

I played so much of this game back in the day.

I remember playing this with my friend in the early 90s. Was such a fun little game.

Scorch2000 and worms world party were staples of my childhood.

Where's the skiing game at?

Ah yes.. back when the turbo button made games run faster 🫠

Never really played that. Was more into the text adventures like Zork.

You can get it here! http://www.whicken.com/scorch/

Loved that game. There was a flash version, too, but I can't recall the name. I used to play both at the same time as Motherload. What a great soundtrack lol

I saw the thumbnail and thought "Scorched Earth?"

Then I clicked and, sure enough, it's Scorched Earth!

I had it on my computer for a very long time, but it's not programmed to take the increased processing speeds of modern computers into account, so trying to play it on a current system is playing it on super extreme fast-forward.
