Panzermadels (English: Armor Girls) is a 2016 video game. Described in marketing materials as "unabashedly goofy",[1] it is a tank dating simulator.

In Panzermadels, various models of classic tanks of World War II – the M4 Sherman, Tiger I, T-34, and others – are represented as attractive anime schoolgirls, each with her own idiosyncrasies and personality,[1] an example of moe anthropomorphism. Despite looking like people, the girl characters are also functional tanks.
The game uses devices common to a typical Japanese visual novel.[1] The protagonist ("Erwin Lemmor") discovers that the tankschool he enrolled in is not an officer training academy as he thought but rather a school for tanks, all of which take the form of teenage girls.[4] The object of the short game is for the player to win the affections of the tank/girls[5] by choosing options at various points in the multiple storylines.[6]
The game was developed by Darr Lehman for Devgru-P Corporation and published by Devgru-P.[3][7][5]
