Enjoy two mini-games you’ve known since childhood.

The full text of the news item

Cool games....

I remember playing the tank game but with ships, you had to fire torpedoes and sink the ships. This must have been from the mid 1960s. Strange as it may seem but can remember where, Spanish City, and it cost a tanner a go.

Now ask me what happened last week and can't remember!

Nice! Can be fun to play between matches.
And I REALLY like that there is no hard limit on how much you can play them nor a grueling grind, good job

[stokerel]

I woke up this morning and thought: you know what? I'd really like to start up WoT when I get home from work tonight but damn I wish I had some mini games to play. I don't need WG to fix any of those awful powercreeped tanks or the in game toxicity or bot'ing some players do. Nah ... I wish I can play some childhood games instead.

 

Thanks guys, you made my wish come true!

WG, dont put your efforts into improving this game, waste all of your time on useless things like this instead...

[Supakadai]

Just imagine what if WG had used even a fraction of the money spent on this kind of nonsense on hiring some developers. I mean like actual, talented developers.

Full of great ideas instead of some consumable artillery, autoaim wheelchairs etc crap.

Imagine having a choice of hundreds of tanks, I mean like actual playable and balanced tanks, not just uncompetetive, forgotten and abandoned vehicles.

If only if... ...

Maybe then WG wouldn't need to put out another christmas video with promises about better future, promises they clearly not up to fulfil. I mean like an actual self respecting game company.

 

And yes I remember those arcade cabinets, besides that one was about catching eggs and the other about sinking ships.

Nobody:

 

WG: brings out 1 GB update and minigames that nobody needed or asked for

[vapaaman]

Where in the seven hells are these mini-games? The only "3d" crap I can click on. Is the frontline and A sign. I click on the dogtags still nothing.

We’re pleased to announce that from September 18 through October 7

Tickets without playing randoms? NICE!!!

[PipeHugger]

Are you running the game down on purpose? Get the anonomizer in and work on existing and future MAPS.

I remember playing a game with 4 torpedoes for 5p at Saunderfoot in the 1970s.

GREAT

No idea if you are above my sarcastic radar but :

 

You can only play them 5 times and after that there is a 25 minute cooldown.

 

Every day of this event you will have five attempts in total to play both mini-games. When you have used them all up, a 25-minute cooldown occurs, so you can catch your breath and get ready for the next round of games. After the cooldown ends, you will have five new attempts. This may be repeated infinitely until you have won the maximum number of Tickets available.

 

Once you have won the maximum number of Tickets available per day, both mini-games go to a permanent cooldown. They will be unlocked on the next gaming day after the next server restart (05:00 UTC).

I'm not sure about the catcher game but the tank hunter one was released in 1969 in the Soviet Union under the name of Morskoi Boi
