  "Seek and Destroy," released by Conspiracy Entertainment in 2002 for PlayStation 2, is a tank warfare game taking place in the future. You must stop the evil empire known as Q-stein. It is attempting to conquer the world and you are the last hope. Although the game is considered a bit basic compared to many games of its time, it still offers fast-paced and fun tank fighting action.
  
  

Extra Mushrooms

• Mushrooms can give you extra health and other bonuses in this game. Mixing different types of mushrooms can improve your game play by giving you speed boosts and other advantages. Collecting them is easy, as they are scattered throughout the map. However, they become rare in later stages. Take advantage of them early in the game by using this simple cheat. After you clear a screen, watch for mushrooms. If they appear, collect them all and then leave the screen. Immediately go back to the screen from which you just came. The mushrooms will appear again but not the enemies. Collect the mushrooms again and leave the screen. Return to grab the mushrooms again. This won't happen infinitely, but it should repeat several times. Do this every time you see mushrooms.
  
  

Passwords

• Early on in the first town, there is a pink tank. Talk to the driver of the pink tank to enter passwords. There are several passwords you can enter but most of them don't do much for your tank but save your spot or move you to different areas. Enter the password "GSASINRI" to earn the air Gatling gun. Use this gun to devastate your flying enemies in no time. Enter the password "KKHWEEEE" to earn the bound bomb. Use this bomb to blow massive areas of the map apart. Enter the password "KWNOHIRO" to earn 1,000 gold. Enter the password "ODGRITRO" to earn the grand flag, which has mysterious effects on the game.
  
  

Beat the Game

• Beating the game is one of the best ways to earn a lot of gold. After you beat the game, you will earn 20,000 gold and a set of angel wings. The angel wings are a badge, meaning they show that you have beaten the game. Earn the devil wings by beating all of the arena battles. These serve as another game winning badge. However, the gold and wings also serve a secondary purpose: making your second run through of the game easier. Play through the game the first time just to beat it. Don't look for extra missions or any secrets. You will get the angel wings, devil wings and gold anyway. Once you have beaten the game, go through the game a second time. Use the gold to make your tank unbeatable. Use the wings to boost your speed to nearly impossible levels. Search the game carefully this time to find all the secrets, as your power will be next to none.
