Sea Battle Solitaire is a logic puzzle for the Palm OS, in which you are challenged to deduce the hidden navy deployment.
Instructions:
- The objective is to determine your enemy's navy deployment.
- A navy consists of
* 1x Battleship of length 4,
* 2x Cruiser of length 3,
* 3x Destroyer of length 2,
* 4x Submarine of length 1.
- Ships are arranged horizontally or vertically on the board.
- No two ships have squares which are adjacent to other ships, not even diagonally.
- Each line (either row or column) has two numbers placed after it. You can see these numbers down the right hand side, and along the bottom, of the board.
- The first number, in black, is the number of occupied squares in this line.
- The second number, in red or blue ( or grey ), is the number of occupied squares remaining to be found in that line.
- The red number turns to a blue zero when it's line is complete.
- Tap a square to cycle it between being unknown, sea or ship.
- On the right you will see a tally of the ships, which will be automatically crossed off as they are found.
- Good luck.
