How to Play Battleship

In Battleship, the goal is win by sinking your opponent's ships. Battleship is played with 2 players. To get started, enter a name for yourself (ex: "player-100") and a room name. The room name can be anything you like (ex: "joan's room"). Your opponent can join your game by using the exact same room name, or by copying the room link.

Once you start the game, you will first need to place your own ships. To start, you should see five ships: a carrier, battleship, cruiser, submarine and destroyer. Place a ship by selecting it, and then selecting a tile on your board where you'd like to place the ship. You can also rotate a ship by selecting the rotate button. Once you've placed all your ships, select the "Ready" button. Once both players have selected the Ready button, the game moves onto the shooting phase.

In the shooting phase, players take turns shooting at the opponent's ships. On your turn, select a tile on your opponent's board that you haven't yet shot at. If you hit an enemy ship, that tile will turn red. If you miss, that tile will turn white.

The game continues until a player has lost all their ships. The player left standing wins!

YOU WIN!
