Description:
This is a Pocket PC version of the classic Battleship game. Unlike other computerized versions of the game, this one actually shoots back!
Installation:
Just copy the executable to your Pocket PC and run it. It's completely self-contained. The easiest way to do this is just to click on the executable from your PPC's web browser.
Instructions:
Tap on the squares with question marks to locate and destroy the enemy's ships before the enemy (the computer) sinks yours! To sink a ship, you must score a hit on each square occupied by the ship. Remember that the ships each occupy a different number of squares:
- Destroyer: 2 squares
- Submarine: 3 squares
- Cruiser: 3 squares
- Battleship: 4 squares
- Carrier: 5 squares.
You can change the way the game behaves with the following options:
- Easy: When checked, this option will cause the game to use a weaker algorithm to choose a square to shoot at.
- Sounds: When checked, the program will play a short sound every time you or the computer fires a shot.
- Move Delay: When checked, the computer will pause about half a second before making its move.
- Sunk Notify: When checked, a message box will be displayed every time a ship is sunk.
