Editorial Review:
Battleship captains plot their strategies, send out torpedoes, and as the last ship (often the smallest, two-peg patrol boat) hides in an unsuspected corner, anticipation mounts. Like many classic games, Battleship walks a fine line between strategy and luck. The goal is to conceal the location of your ships while finding and destroying your enemies' fighters. The playing arena is a notebook-size plastic board updated for '90s sensibilities: the "floor" of the board is printed with waves and the exterior vaguely resembles a laptop. The design mimics the view a submarine captain would have, complete with a glimmer of radar waves. The game is perfect entertainment to share: simple enough for children, yet gratifying enough for adults to enjoy. One design decision keeps this edition from being truly stellar: the playing boards don't lock securely, allowing the small pegs to fall out and spill from the sides if jostled. --Jennifer Buckendorff

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Battleships Is a Real Battle
Okay, I used to love this game. Played it when I was a kid, when we had to draw a new game out on paper each time we played. It was instant nostalgia on plastic game boards, and lots of memories from many many moons ago. And, guess what ~ I still love it. No one else does, or at least the ones who play with me. I have no mercy.

The game doesn't look real sturdy, but will outlast me, probably. I had a bit of a problem getting the play pieces mounted on the play board, but with a ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Perfect For Any Day! All Hands On Deck!
This was one of the most interesting & fun games of all times! We were known to play for hours when all the cousins got together for the holidays! We looked more forwrds to playing battleship than we did Grama's Christams Pudding! Of course if we could've kept up with the pieces Grama might not have taken our pudding away!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - "You Sank My Battleship!!"
Battleship was one of my favorite games as a child. Now, my son is able to share in that experience. We just picked up the new Battleship game about a week ago, and he loves it! I also like the changes that have been made to the game. For instance, when I was a child, the game was fairly basic. By that I mean that the containers were plain and there weren't many graphics to give the game a real "military" feel. Now, the game is much more realistic. The bottom part of the playing grid where ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - one of the best games of all time
you probably have played it or have seen the commercials at some point in your life if you are older than 20 at least. It is fun and can go most anywhere. Turn off your TV and open a board game, any board game and get your kids involved for some fun and surprise; some personal interaction too.. LOL



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Fun Game, needs better design
I have to agree with several prior comments concerning the marking pins, they are a poor fit and a simple bump can cause the pins to jump off the board - can we expect a seven year old or even an adult to not bump the board ocasionally? Also, I had to file down the ships pins so they would fit into the boards holes - I don't recall having these problems when I was a kid. Too often the game companies rely on history to sell a game, then deliver an inferior produt.
