Tanks!

Oh boy, the history of 2006's Wii Play Tanks! is quite the history. Not the history of the game itself, but the history of Ricky Luke and Jake's story with the game. Before we get into that, the game Tanks! is a simple game, where either one or two players make their way through the levels defeating enemy tanks, as they are themselves tanks. Gameplay can be seen here. Ricky mostly chooses to take a back seat now and only plays occasional rounds of Tanks! now.

Notable events:

In February of 2019, after many hours worth spread across multiple days of playing, Jake and Luke passed all 20 co-op levels as Ricky watched from the side. This was the only time that they would pass all 20 levels as of 2020.

In February of 2020 however Jake and Luke had once again reached level 20 though failing in the end, Ricky was again taking a back seat roll in the playing of the game.

With many fails and only one true success, Jake Luke and Ricky seem to have wasted many hours on failure, although unsure if they are finished playing this game or not, here is a story from February 2020.

The Midnight Attempt, Ricky's final night in Buxton Maine for February break, all three cousins were finally calling it a night, as they laid in their respective beds and began to talk, inspiration was found, Jake and Luke made their way to the coach as Ricky watched them begin to play their last few attempts, however to no avail or satisfaction they failed their final attempts, after these failed attempts Ricky rushed out of his bed to unplug the Wii to prevent any further attempts.

However, it is difficult to tell if this is the true end to the Tanks! obsession or if it is only a midpoint.
