### 4/5 — Want more of a challenge?

*2017-02-04, version 1.0.1*

This game is ok if you just want to pass the time. If you're looking for something more challenging, I suggest you check out Bimaru. The boards are up to 10x10 and there are longer ships. And the best part is they're all FREE!

### 4/5 — Somewhat challenging.

*2017-01-10*

Makes you learn to throw off the blinkers and test hypotheses.  If...then...nope, didn't work...let's try...etc.   Don't expect things to get harder as you go.  Sometimes problems in the middle take longer than those at the end.

**Developer response:** It does gets harder towards later difficulty mode. Do you have any suggestion on how we can further improve Warship Solitaire and earn your 5 star? :)

### 4/5 — Review

*2016-12-17*

Quite a fun app

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review. Do you have any suggestion on how we can further improve Warship Solitaire and earn your 5 star? :)

### 4/5 — Great game. Very addicting.

*2016-12-10, version 1.0.1*

This is a very addicting game. There is a bug in the game where if you hit undo too fast and you figure out the solution, the game doesn't know you have the solution. They are working on a fix for this but there is an easy workaround, just reset the level and redo it. Great game.

**Developer response:** Thank you for sharing this with other users CWatsonJr. I guess you must have contacted me via the emails. A fixed has been found but I'm still working to include it into the patch. Sorry for the delay!

### 5/5 — Volksy

*2016-11-27*

I love this app. After searching for ages for a simple version of this puzzle (without the fancy graphics, explosions, Ta dahs, etc.) this is it!! If I could suggest one thing I would find helpful - that is, making the unalterable squares stand out a bit - my memory not being quite what it was - would save me having to reset when I forget where they are. Great job! If you bring out a tents and trees puzzle to compliment this one please let me know. I'm addicted to them both. Well done.

### 5/5 — Great game!

*2016-11-27*

Installed in the morning and couldn't stop playing all day!

### 5/5 — Fun game.

*2016-11-26, version 1.0.1*

It kept me entertained enough to finish all the puzzles. That is an achievement, since I often get bored with games, and never finish. 

You can see the completed board after finishing by tapping the "Completed" board cover.

### 5/5 — Great puzzle game

*2016-09-30*

Simple to play but can be a mind bender.

### 5/5 — Great distraction

*2016-09-04, version 1.0.1*

There are more than enough free hints to get you through the entire game. It's a great distraction and doesn't have intrusive ads or sounds.

### 5/5 — The best Battleship Solitaire game on iOS, with one significant caveat

*2016-08-18, version 1.0.1*

There really needs to be a set of puzzles with a four-length ship. Hopefully that will come in a future update. But this is a great implementation of the mechanic of the game, well worth the tiny cost. Great job by the dev.

### 5/5 — AMAZING!

*2016-08-14*

I LOVE THIS GAME SOOOO MUCH! IT'S SOOOO GOOD! PLZ PLZ PLZ ADD MORE UPDATES AND ADD NEW PUZZLES I ENJOY THEM SO MUCH! WELL DONE ON THIS AWESOME APP!

### 4/5 — I never give 5 stars!

*2016-05-08, version 1.0.1*

Yup, this app is great. Simple but complicated, you can play casually or fry your own brain. Soduku is an adequate comparison, but think of this app as a compilation of the best puzzles with a similar mechanic.

However, there's still room for improvement, improvement that's not coming. Guessing works much too well, and they give you hints for money...

### 5/5 — Quick logic puzzle

*2016-03-31*

Nice to find puzzles that are challenging but quick to solve. Unfortunately it proved so addictive that I completed all the levels in 3 weeks. One thing I don't like is how the board disappears immediately when you solve a level.

### 4/5 — Greta app!

*2016-03-26, version 1.0.1*

This is good fun--easy on the eyes and nice when you don't want to play a fast-paced game. Instructions were very helpful and well put together. I really enjoy this app!

### 5/5 — Challenging and fun!

*2016-03-12*

Fairly simple rules and quick puzzle.
I am finding myself looking to do another one any chance I get.

### 4/5 — Fun game but requires guessing

*2016-02-12, version 1.0.1*

Some levels have multiple possible answers and you just guess till its right. Fun game otherwise

### 5/5 — Really enjoyable game

*2016-02-02*

I quite like this game. Easy to understand. A cross between picross games which I love and battleship. Solid five star game.

### 1/5 — Couldn't get it to work on IPad

*2015-07-12, version 1.0.1*

I did the training. However, when I tried to play, all I could create were water blocks and grey blocks.

My initial game had a hint of half a cruiser/destroyer (I forget which one took up two blocks). So, I double tapped the black to get the other half. All I got was a cycle of water block, grey block and blanks.

So then, I tapped the hint button and it auto filled that very same block with the other half of the ship!!??

Similar attempts to do other blocks gave me the same 3 blocks.

This thing needs more testing!

### 2/5 — Game not working

*2015-12-28*

Great game but beat the seaman level and now can't advance... Glitchy?

### 2/5 — You need to guess eventually

*2015-08-02, version 1.0.1*

This game does resemble picross, but is a bit harder, because you do eventually need to guess to complete the puzzles. On the first tier just try to get the 3 length ship after removing all obvious blocks with simple logic. But some where around the 2nd tier, you'll need to make a guess. Logic doesn't work as there are two or more possible choices and you'll need to use trial and error to guess the correct answer, so I don't consider this a true logic game.

### 2/5 — Puzzles have non-unique solutions

*2015-07-20*

Lieutenant level 3 has at least 3 possible solutions (I replayed it and used a different solution the second time; it was still solved. After that the third solution is obvious). I uninstalled it right after that. I'm not looking for guessing games. Going back to true nonogram games. Glad I grabbed this on a day where it was free.

### 2/5 — Good start

*2015-07-16, version 1.0.1*

The other reviews seem bottled. I found the premise interesting. I got this game because it promised a puzzle game that didn't require guessing, but once you reach halfway through the second tier of levels, it becomes impossible to figure out many puzzles without using the guess and check method. I guess this is a scheme to get you to buy hints. The game isn't that good that I'm willing to spend more money on it out of some sunk cost fallacy.

### 3/5 — Enjoyed the game but needs some improvements

*2016-01-08, version 1.0.1*

I really liked the idea of the puzzles but after a while it got too easy. Also, there aren't many puzzles so you finish it rather quickly. Overall I liked the game but I hope that more stuff will get added.

### 3/5 — Room for improvement

*2016-01-01, version 1.0.1*

Let me start out by saying that what this game does, it does well.  It's well-thought out, with puzzles whose difficulty is appropriately labeled. Furthermore, there are enough puzzles at each difficulty level that, by the time you've completed one set of puzzles at a given level, you've trained yourself to the next level.  

But there's definitely room for improvement.  The most glaring problem is the fact that, at least as far as I can tell, there are no battleships that span four grid spaces.  Furthermore, it would've been nice to have been given a simple explanation of the controls without going through an entire tutorial.  Both of these items are fixable in the execution of the game.  In the end, I feel that the developers of this game would be well-served to take a look at the gameplay of any of the eight logic puzzle games created by Conceptis, Ltd., for what should be relatively minor improvements to the app, which would make a major impact on its quality.

### 4/5 — Are you keeping this up to date?

*2024-06-26*

No updates for years…

### 4/5 — Great simply thinking game

*2023-07-15*

Game is fantastic. Needs a few UI tweaks on newer devices/iOS but it still works and is fun. A nice quiet thinking game/logic puzzle.

### 4/5 — Good Puzzle

*2017-04-12*

Easy to use with several difficult to solve 
Too bad there is a limit to the number of puzzles

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. Hopefully I will be able to introduce more puzzles / endless mode in the near future!

### 5/5 — Part logic, part guessing

*2018-09-16, version 1.0.3*

I wish it was heavier on pure logic, but the majority of puzzles end up with some guesswork. I used a couple hints just because I was too lazy to work through all the permutations on certain levels. Instead of tapping undo a dozen times for each guess, it might be cool to just tag the board just before the guessing begins and then have a single “undo everything back to the tag” button. All in all, a really fun game that took about 4 hours to finish.

### 5/5 — A fantastic way to escape daily grind.

*2018-01-08, version 1.0.1*

I have enjoyed playing this game every evening before bed. There are no timers, no in-app purchase, and most of all no annoying ads. This is just a very fun sudoku-style logic game with enough variation that once the entire game is completed at every level of advancement, you can start over or just select a random level. I look forward to other projects from this developer. A big "thank you" for putting fun back into tablet games.

### 5/5 — Nicely done simple puzzler

*2017-12-25*

Simple yet addictive, without annoying ads

### 5/5 — Exercise your brain!

*2017-10-04*

Lots of fun.  Totally addictive.

### 5/5 — Great solitary game with a different twist

*2017-09-20, version 1.0.1*

Game made for logics and puzzles. I enjoyed it at my own pace, no timers.  Multiple levels with each level harder to figure out than the last. First levels are easy, but don't get complacent!  Each level has 25 puzzles, and you get 10 hints to use for the entire game. After you finish, you can start it all over again or play your favorite set over. I've had a lot of fun with it. Not like any other game I've tried.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your kind review, I'm glad you enjoyed playing Warship Solitaire :)

### 5/5 — Great relaxing game

*2017-05-23, version 1.0.1*

If you want something that makes you think but won't destroy you emotionally this game is great. A great puzzle trouble shooter, deduction game of understanding a answer. You won't feel foolish if it takes a second, it's part of the process.

### 5/5 — Loved this app!

*2017-05-07, version 1.0.1*

Warship Solitaire kept me busy and challenged for hours and hours of play over an extended period of time. Nice to pick up here and there and complete all the logic type puzzles.

### 5/5 — Fun and addicting

*2017-02-17, version 1.0.1*

I'm really enjoying this app. It definitely is addicting while not being mind numbing.

### 5/5 — Great classic

*2016-12-14*

This is a great twist on a classic game. Simple concept but increasingly difficult with each level. Completing a puzzle is very satisfying. I recommend this game.

### 5/5 — Challenging but too short

*2016-11-30, version 1.0.1*

The only complaint I have to lodge is that there is not more content.

Warship Solitaire is a cross between Battleship, Sudoku, and Minesweeper. It starts off with straightforward puzzles that can be solved step-by-step with logical deductions. As the puzzles get more difficult, you have to start making hypotheses, testing them, and eliminating arrangements that don't work.

It's a beautifully simple yet challenging puzzle game.
