This is not the same Battleship you played as a child. Instead of an 8 x 8 grid in the original game, this one is 18 x 18. Instead of finding 5 ships, you now have 11. If you have never played before: You need to sink ALL the Computer's Ships before the computer sinks ALL yours. Each ship has either 2, 3, 4, or 5 places to hit in order to sink it. The larger the ship, the more places you need to hit it. (look at the ships in your fleet) Click on a square in the grid under "COMPUTER'S FLEET". If you hit, a red dot will appear. Miss - a white splash. The computer will then take its turn, then it's your turn again. All ships are either up and down or side to side. Not diagonal.
