Battleship Solitaire is a cross between the traditional game Battleship, the puzzle game of Picture Logic and Minesweeper.
In Battleship Solitaire, the object is to find the hidden ships in the grid using the numbers around the grid as clues to their location. The computer hides the ships in either a horizontal or vertical direction and a few 'shots' are then fired into the grid to get you started (hints).
To try and place the ships, click the left mouse button to cycle through the possibilities. No two ships are adjacent in any direction, including diagonally. There is one battleship (4 squares in length). There are three cruisers (3 squares in length). There are three destroyers (2 squares in length). There are four subs (1 square only). The numbers in the right column indicates the number of grid squares occupied by ships in the horizontal direction for each row. The numbers in the bottom row indicate the number of grid squares occupied by ships in the vertical direction for each column. Pressing the right mouse button gives you a hint for a selected square.
Options include the ability to print out the puzzle, see the solution, check your answers and to set the difficulty level. |
