Sea Battle

Sea Battle

This Sea Battle is the classic pen and paper game, now with a cannon and fire on screen. Each side has a 9 by 7 sea and five ships: a 2-square speedboat, a submarine and a frigate of 3, a battleship of 4 and an aircraft carrier of 5. Ships are allowed to touch.

Play the bot on three levels or a friend on the same device, passing the screen while you place your fleet. Hit a ship and you fire again; miss and the turn passes. Every hit is worth 1 point and every sunk ship 1 more.

How to play

  • Place your ships without showing your opponent and take turns guessing your opponent's ship locations

On the keyboardPlacement: 1 to 5 (or Tab) pick a ship, arrow keys move it, Space or R rotates, Backspace returns it to the tray, S places at random and Enter saves. Battle: arrow keys aim and Enter or Space fires.

Tips to play better

  1. 1Found a ship? Fire at the neighboring squares until you know if it lies across or up and down, then keep going along that line until it sinks.
  2. 2Ships can touch, so do not rule out the squares next to a sunk ship: another one may be sitting right against it.
  3. 3When placing, mix horizontal and vertical ships. Tap a placed ship to rotate it, and use Random when you want a quick start.
  4. 4The smallest ship has only 2 squares. When it is the last one left, look in the gaps between your misses where 2 squares in a row still fit.

Frequently asked questions

How does the bot play on each difficulty?

Its first shot is always random. On Easy it fires loosely around the sea; on Medium and Hard it follows the direction of its last hit, and on Hard it finds ships more often, especially when you are ahead on points.

Can I play with a friend?

Yes. Pick Friend: Red places the fleet with the screen hidden, hands over the device, Blue places, and the battle always starts with Red.
