Toys and Games Reviews of Battleship Design May Vary
Customer Review: Ship...Sunk!
Summary: 4 Stars
Can you sink your opponent's ships? Battleship is easy and hard at the same time. The easy part is guessing where your opponent has placed their ships; all it requires is your voice! The hard part is figuring out a successful strategy that will win you the game...my strategy is to guess every other square, since none of the boats are only one square long. Keeping track of where you have guessed is fun, for some reason. Possibly because I enjoy being organized. The red and white pegs can easily be spilled or lost, so I recommend being careful when using them.
Overall, this is a great game! I recommend it to people who enjoy fun board games that require good strategies.
Customer Review: A classic
Summary: 5 Stars
I am 26 years old now and still have my Battleship game. My brother and I used to play a lot when we were younger and it was a real exciting game of guessing, logic, locating things on a grid and using various strategies. The best part about this game is that you can fold it up into it's two consoles and then take it on the road with you. We filled many hours in the backseat during roadtrips with this game. It is a pretty easy game to learn and to play which also helps to make it fun at the same time. I would definately recommend this game to anyone even if your child has no interest in ships at all. I didn't and I still don't but the game is a classic.
Customer Review: Warning -- I was sent the new cheap version of battleship
Summary: 1 Stars
I order and spent the money for this classic battleship so that my husband would play happily with my son. We already have the new battleship which is cheaply made and is readily available at Target for $15. I spent $25 plus $10 shipping to get the classic version pictured. Well it came today and it was the new cheap version. I did not order this so I called the number for the company listed above. Strange that they don't take phone calls only emails. I will not pay for the Classic Battleship that I didn't receive. If Amazon can't work it out I will be filing a dispute with my credit card company and already talked to them about it. Anyway don't order this!!!Customer Review: Simple, yet challenging fun for all ages
Summary: 4 Stars
In a time where computer games mesmorize our kids and more times than not, isolate them alone in front of a computer screen, it is refreshing to know that the staying power of this vintage game is still with us. Battleship promotes one on one inter-action between players on a human level. Though simple in design and application, the game actually nurtures deductive skills in the young mind as they seek out opposing player's ships by strategically working the grid. It's compact design enables the players to enjoy the game in any setting; no batteries or plugs needed. An excellent road trip item for the kids in the back seat.Customer Review: Pegs fall out of the holes!
Summary: 1 Stars
My son and I enjoy playing Battleship - it's a great game. But I have to give this edition one star, for its fatal flaw: the pegs fall out of the holes very easily. This is mildly inconvenient if you want to suspend your game and resume later, because if you try to fold up the game board, you'll lose your pieces. But the pieces are so loose, they can fall out if someone just bumps into the table. One false move and you lose the whole game. I guess this is true of lots of games, like chess, but Battleship, with those pegs in a vertical surface, is a special case. There's no excuse for making pieces that are the wrong size.
