Battleship

Battleship is the game for two players in which they take turns to attack each other’s ships. If you hit one of the opponent’s ships, it starts to «sink», and you gain the right to make one more move.

The objective of the player is to shoot down all of the opponent’s ships first. The player has one minute to make one move. When the time has elapsed, the player skips his move. Ships arrangement

You may place the ships randomly by pressing Place Randomly button or arrange them as you wish. By pressing Clear the grid button all the ships are removed to the «port», after which you’ll be able to place them on the grid by shifting from the port to the chosen place. To rotate a ship situated on your grid, just click on it. To save the arrangement, click Retain button. You’ll be able to see your saved placements in Placements panel beneath the grid.
