Battle Ship The original battleship game was played with paper and pencil, invented by Clifford Von Wickler before World War I. Back then, the game was not called Battleship but Salvo. While people still play this battle game with a paper and pencil, it is also played as a board game, a video game, a computer game and an online game.
Battle Ship On the grid paper provided, Player A and Player B mark one of each of the following types of ships (either horizontally or vertically): **** air craft carrier *** U-boat ** submarine
Battle Ship Player B then calls out a coordinate point. If that point is part of one of Player A's ships, Player A says hit. Both players record an H on that coordinate point on their graph paper. If the coordinate point is not part of one of Player A's ships, but is one square (horizontally, vertically, or diagonally) from one of the ships. Player B records an M (for near miss) on his/her graph paper. If the coordinate point is not part of one of Player A's ships, Player B records an X on that coordinate point on his/her graph paper.
Battle Ship Play continues, with Player A and Player B alternating turns until one player has sunk all 3 ships of the other player. (Requiring all coordinate points of the ship to be hit)
Traffic Jam It's designed to challenge players of all ages all around the World. Rush Hour® teaches logical progression, problem solving and sequential-thinking skills.
