Let me say upfront that I am not a big fan of this game.

Maybe I’ve been spoiled by some of the stellar games that have been released in recent weeks, but this just feels unpolished and rushed out to the App Store. Sure, the game works and it familiar if you played Battleship as a kid. But the graphics are just okay, the use of the radar is annoying and the sounds are not only not that good but they get old really, really quickly. And at $3.99 there are so many games that cost the same or less and are much better.

One positive is that it is among those games that can be played with others over wifi.

I could go on but perhaps it is better if you decide for yourself. Take a look…

 

Quick Take

Value:  Low- NOT a $3.99 game
Would I Buy Again:  Probably not
Learning Curve: Low
Who is it for: People who want free iPhone games
What I like: You can play against someone else over wifi
What I Don’t: Sound, game play, graphics 

Final Statement: I’m not a fan and have removed it from my iPhone. It isn’t so much that it is "bad", as it is "not good" and could be much much better.
