Beautiful thinking puzzle!

The first reviews are very well-written and say it all, I just want you to know this is a very satisfying mental exercise. There are a full range of difficulty senerios, and if you take the tutorial, you will be well rewarded!

To the developer, please add a scoring feature: I know I'm thinking better than before, so I'd like to keep track of my progress. Players might find this an additional dimension of interest.

Probably the best scoring method is simply to add a history of timings for each level (maybe the last 10 or 20). Can do? Thank you for an excellent puzzle app!!!

I really like this game

This is -not- the battleship game you played as a kid. It's a thinking person's puzzle game that requires careful analysis and planning to play properly and enjoy. I saw this game pop up a while ago and after reading about it and seeing a review, I was intrigued. I played the Viewer app and thought it was good fun, so I bought this one. The graphics are adequate given what you're trying to accomplish, though it does take some getting use to because at the medium and higher levels, the game is quite complex. Don't buy it if you just want to play battleship -- you'll be disappointed, but it you want to solve complex puzzles without the frustrations that come with many puzzle games, then this may be a great choice for you. Try the Viewer app first to see if you like it and spend the time going through the tutorials or you won't have a clue how to play.

Just what I needed!

I've grown tired of sudoku, and a French connect the dots game I've been playing has grown thin. This game is perfect! The logic needed in the upper levels of the game is intense! The instructions are pretty straight foward and the display simple and does not distract one's thoughts. This is battleship's older and smarter brother. You're not playing the captain who's sinking ships. You're playing the intelligence recon who's locating their exact locations with as few turns as possible.

Better than reviews

But don't know yet if I can say great. Don't expect the traditional battleship game with cool graphics. This is a logic-puzzle game with good instructions, multiple levels, and significant challenge. Haven't played enough yet to comment on it's lasting value, but give the developer a break and don't judge this by comparing it to the other battleship game.
