## What is Battleboats.io?

Battleboats.io is a 10 vs.10 multiplayer action game, where two teams engage in fast paced sea battles. You will seamlessly jump into a game and join either “Team Red” or “Team Blue”. Right now there are two modes: HQ Destruction and Team Deathmatch.

In HQ Destruction the goal is to destroy the enemy HQ by moving the own big sea mine towards the enemy base. To achieve this goal, you not only have to destroy enemy ships by using your canons or torpedoes, but also by collecting different kind of chest that are floating on the surface.

In Team Deathmatch the goal is to destroy more enemy ships within a certain timeframe than the opposing team.

Mine crates: They shine in the colour of your team and move your own mine towards the enemy HQ.

XP crates: Collect them to upgrade your ship. The more your ship evolves the more damage it deals and the more it can take. 

Ammunition crates: Every canon shot will cost you one unit of ammunition, firing torpedoes even five. Collect ammunition crates to reload your canons and tubes.          

Repair crates: Your ship will be destroy in case your HP reach 0. Collect repair crates to repair your ship.

Carrier crates: To switch the ship class from destroyer to carrier.

But that’s not all. To be successful, you should also have two more things in mind. 

First, as long as the battle lasts, you may be able to respawn after your ship got destroyed, but you will lose 5 levels.

Second, avoid energy barriers turning on, as well as turrets aiming at you, because they will heavily damage your ship.

So, what are you waiting for? Get on the bridge!

Recommended for iPad 4 and higher and iPhone 5s and higher.

### 4/5 — Great game, Yet a few bugs.

*2022-06-30*

I personally would of rated this game (and if the problems are solved I might as well in the near future) 5 stars if it had not had the few bugs I have seen. Ok, from the top:
#1: After had toggling the “Privacy Policy” button, henceforth bringing you to that specific page, there is no way to return back unless you exit the tab completely (Although this doesn’t seem like much now I will refer to this later)

#2: Yes, Indeed, I have noticed many ads but that is understandable as this is a free-to-play io game, but why is it that when you start the game when not choosing a powerup it will yet still force you to watch an ad?

#3: If you are to exit the tab completely, it will delete all of your progress. This is the biggest and most problematic bug I have seen, as it will remove certain features from the game, and, now as I will refer from earlier, basically turns the Privacy Policy into a Save File Death Button.

Otherwise, this game is great, and I am looking forward to updates in the future. Sincerely, Mr. N.
