The 'Galaxy Zega' Toys Pit Miniature Tanks Against One Another
The Galaxy Zega is a digitally connected set of toys and software from Chinese game manufacturer SmartX. Replete with miniature, futuristic, remote-controlled tanks, a labyrinthine game environment and an app available on Apple's App Store and the Google Play store, the Galaxy Zega set is a real-world toy that still manages to blend the digital interfaces that kids are accustomed to today.
The game incorporates both its real-world tanks and maze into the app in a seamless manner. Players can drive their tanks around the playing field through the simple-to-use controls on the app, and they can use the app to fire virtual missile at one another. As they make hits and knock out their opponents, players are given power-ups through the app to make their tanks even more powerful.
