Battleship games are strategic naval combat simulations where players deploy ships on a grid and attempt to locate and destroy their opponent's fleet. The core concept involves grid-based coordination, turn-based guessing, and deductive reasoning to outmaneuver an adversary. While traditionally a two-player tabletop game, modern adaptations have expanded into digital formats, incorporating themes, enhanced mechanics, and solo play modes.
• Classic Battleship: The original pen-and-paper style game with a 10x10 grid and five ship types.
• Electronic Battleship: A digitalized version with automated hit detection and sound effects.
• Super Battleship: A reimagined edition featuring larger grids, additional ships, and advanced strategies.
