Welcome to Battleship! Your objective is to sink all of the computer's ships before it sinks yours.

Setup

1. Both your ships and the computer's are placed randomly on the grid at the start.
2. You can manually place your ships by dragging and dropping them to your desired positions on your board.
3. Double-click on any ship to rotate it between horizontal and vertical orientations.
4. Alternatively, click the "Randomize" button to automatically place all your ships in random positions.
5. Once you're satisfied with your ship placement, click "Start Game" to begin.

Ships

• Carrier (5 spaces)
• Battleship (4 spaces)
• Cruiser (3 spaces)
• Submarine (3 spaces)
• Destroyer (2 spaces)

Game Play

1. You and the computer take turns to attack by clicking on a grid coordinate on the opponent's board.
2. A hit is marked in red, and a miss is marked with an "X".
3. If a ship is hit, the current player continues to attack until the next miss, then turns are switched.
4. When a ship is completely sunk, all adjacent cells are marked as verified empty (if the setting is enabled).
5. The first player to sink all of the opponent's ships wins!

Settings

• Mark verified empty cells: When enabled, cells adjacent to sunk ships are marked with an "O" to help you identify areas where no ships can be located.
• Sound on: Toggle game sound effects on or off.

Tips

• Use strategy to determine the likely location of the opponent's ships.
• Pay attention to the pattern of hits and misses to adjust your strategy.
• Enable "Mark verified empty cells" to help track areas where ships cannot be located.
• The computer can make 'smart' attacks, so don't underestimate it.

All the best, but may the computer win! 😂😂😂
