War in a Box: Paper Tanks is a production of an independent DQ Team studio addressed to tower defense strategy enthusiasts, who are familiar with children's games with the paper army.

The action of the game takes place on the desk. The player plays the role of a general, who on the cardboard models of battlefields tries to repel the attacks of the opponent's cardboard troops, using paper artillery.

Playing War in a Box: Paper Tanks replicates the patterns present in many tower defense games. In designated places on the board, the player rises defensive turrets, which are designed to stop the incoming waves of enemy units before they manage to reach their "base". The annihilation of an enemy unit is rewarded with a small amount of money for which you can buy new defensive formations or upgrade your existing ones.

The arsenal of available weapons includes machine guns, cannons, artillery guns, anti-aircraft batteries and energy cannons (temporarily reduce the speed of movement of enemies). Different types of "turrets" differ in such parameters as range, firepower, firepower, cost of purchase and modification, as well as effectiveness against particular formations of enemy units (planes, airships, armored vehicles, tanks, etc.).

The creators took care of a large variety of battlefield scenery. This is because cardboard models resemble hills, wharfs, city centres, etc. Noteworthy is the three-dimensional graphical environment in which the struggle takes place. The action can be followed in the traditional top-down view, but also from the perspective of defensive towers.
