    • In advanced mode, on the right side of the grid there is a layers button to switch between water surface and sonar layers.
    • The bottom shows how many of the total ships have been destroyed along with the ability to roll the dice or end your turn, along with how many shots you have remaining in your current turn.
    • The right shows your ships along with their cell locations.
• Game Play
  • Board settings
    • Players – choose between 2 and 6. You play as the first player and the computer controls all other players.
    • Ship design – the gameplay is the same with any difference here being simply aesthetic. Choose to play with modern war ships, ancient ships of sail, fish, or kayaks.
    • Grid size – 10×10 (100 cells), 12×12 (144 cells), or 15×15 (225 cells).
    • Mode – standard or advanced, with differences described below.
  • Standard Mode
    • Ships
      • When playing with 2 to 4 players, each player is dealt 5 ship cards.
      • When playing with 5 or 6 players, each player is dealt 4 ship cards.
      • All players must discard 2 cards, meaning that 2-4 player games will have 3 ships each and games with 5 or 6 players will have 2 ships each.
    • Dice
      • Players begin their turns by rolling the dice.
      • The number rolled determines how many shots players get that turn.
      • Take shots on the grid.
      • If every square of a ship gets shot, that ship is sunk.
    • Sunken ships
      • The sunken ship’s card is handed to the player who fired the final shot which sank the ship.
      • The player who sunk the ship and collects the card earns a bonus shot that can be used immediately or on a future turn.
      • The last player to have ships remaining wins.
  • Advanced Mode
    • Ships
      • Advanced mode is similar to the standard mode, but there are a couple differences.
      • When players choose 2 cards to discard they must keep the submarine card as one of their cards.
      • There are submarines below the surface of the water in advanced mode.
      • Switch to the surface or below the surface of the water to see the ship and submarine locations.
    • Shooting
      • After a player has used sonar or chose not to, they can roll the dice to see how many shots they have this turn. In advance mode all shots are fired at once.
      • A yellow hit mark instead of a red one indicates a single shot hit both a surface vessel and a submarine which overlap each other on the grid.
      • A white and red mark on the grid where there is no ship shown indicates you have hit a submarine or ship that is not located on the currently visible layer.
      • When all of a player’s ships and submarine are sunk they are eliminated from the game.
      • The game continues until only one player is still in the game, with the last remaining player winning.
    • Sonar
      • When your turn begins you can use sonar, though you can only use sonar once during the game.
      • You must use the sonar before your submarine is sunk or you lose the ability to use sonar.
    • Bonus cards
      • When a player sinks a ship they collect a bonus card.
      • Each bonus card has a picture showing how many extra shots are earned.
      • Players get a bonus sonar sweep when they sink a submarine.
      • Both the bonus shots and sonar sweep can be used on the current turn or any subsequent turn.
  • Basics
    • This is a board game where you try to destroy the competing naval forces before they destroy all of your ships.
    • You shoot on cells on the grid & when a ship is hit the damage is shown.
      • When a ship is completely destroyed the player who destroyed the ship earns a bonus card.
    • The three big differences between standard and advanced mode are:
      • The existence of a second layer with either submarines or airships (in advanced mode).
      • The ability to use sonar on rows or columns (in advanced mode).
      • In standard mode you shoot one shot at a time & can adjust your shooting strategy based on the response of prior shots, whereas in advanced mode all shots are fired at once.
  • Strategy
    • When discarding ship cards it is typically best to discard the cards for larger ships since they are easier to bump into or locate.
      • Smaller ships take fewer shots to destroy, but far more shots to find.
    • If you have a bonus card in stock and see a partially damaged ship on the board, use your bonus card so you destroy the ship and earn another bonus card.
    • Advanced mode
      • If your submarine takes damage use your sonar before the submarine is completely destroyed.
      • When using sonar make sure to use it in a row or column that does not reveal your own ships to competing players.
      • You can use the layer switching button an unlimited number of times to switch between layers.
      • In some games you will need to bomb your own ships to win the game when competing players have ships in overlapping locations on different layers.
• Target Audience
  • The game is suited for players who like games inspired by the original Battleship board game.
    • If you like this game but would like a simpler game in the same genre, check out Warship.
  • The game has no adult themed content.
