### 2/5 — Looks very interesting!

*2025-05-27*

Update: There is a sim here. Just not this one. Not yet. This is worse than Battleship. There’s a lot of documentation. That’s the best part of this. There’s too many game errors that tell you to do things that’s not there. Like setting the trim. Figure that one out. I understand what it is. And sub batteries die way too quickly. Most of the pieces are there, but put together wrong. The missing ones leave you nowhere’s to go. You can spend a lot of time with this but you don’t really do anything. And the learning curve is immense. And rhe English in the Help is pretty rough in places.

Look real interesting, lots of details and each section has its own help , which can be block/copied into, in my case just in Notes so I can use Dark Mode to read them. That way I can just switch between the two as I learn how to use it. Wrong! If I put the app in the background it throws changes away and goes to default screen. Thats a pain.

### 1/5 — 落ちて起動しない！

*2023-04-29, version 1.0.0*

iPadに入れだが、全く起動すらせず落ちてしまう
何度も遊ぼうとしたが動かない！！

早く何とかして！！！

### 2/5 — 何がなにやら

*2021-07-07, version 1.0.0*

説明不足でなにがなにやらわからない
？ボタンで説明を見ることは出来るが、単語の説明等が無く、このアプリ単体で操作方法を読み解くのは難しいと感じた。
チュートリアルなどがあると親切で良いと思う。
潜水艦のストラテジーゲームということで大いに興味があっただけに残念。
また、ポイント振り分け画面で保存を行なっても設定が巻き戻ってしまう不具合があった。
アップデートに期待します。

### 4/5 — とりあえずワンステージ攻略してみての感想

*2020-09-26, version 1.0.0*

なかなか面白いです。
始めはどうすればいいか分かりづらいですが、慣れると楽しいです。また、？マークのヒントも分かりやすくて困った時に助かります。

個人的には初めてやるであろう第一マップが敵、自機の数の割に大きすぎると感じました。それとチュートリアル用の小さめのマップがあると嬉しいです。

### 1/5 — Instructions Needed!
