About this game

Hidden Ships, also known as Bimaru, is a logic puzzle game with simple rules but tricky solutions.
You need to find the location of all the battleships hidden in the field. Some battleships can be partially opened.
A battleship is a straight line of successive black cells.

The rules of the game are very simple:
• The number of battleships of each size is indicated in the legend next to the grid.
• 2 battleships cannot touch each other even diagonally.
• The numbers outside the grid show the number of cells occupied by battleships in that row / column.

In our application, we have created 12,000 unique levels with varying degrees of difficulty. If this is your first time playing "Hidden Ships", try the first beginner level. Each difficulty level contains 2000 unique levels. Where level 1 is the easiest and 2000 is the hardest. If you can easily solve the 2000th level, try the first level of the next difficulty level.

Each level has only one unique solution, each puzzle can be solved using only logical methods, without guessing.

Have a good time!

Ratings and reviews

not a bad game, though I haven't played very many games yet. I did discover that there can be multiple end scenarios but after I reread the rules I realized that my problem was that I wasn't using their start shapes correctly. I was using a middle piece as an end so I had the right number of grids and ship sizes filled out but not with the right shapes where they wanted them

Needs more work. Most levels need a bit of "what if" work. Usual when I do the paper version of these, I use open circles as my test markers. That way I know the "for sure" ship pieces, and the test ship spaces that I can erase when they force a conflict. Also, being able to indicate an entire row or section as water without having to press every square would be a big improvement.

I like all of Aliaksandr Uvarau's games, and this is yet another solid logic/pattern puzzle game. However, Battleships seems a lot harder than all the others. There are no features for marking possible tiles like the Camping or Train Tracks puzzle games, so you sort of have to either blunder through multiple attempts or make physical notes. I usually play the games in this series on Expert (even if it takes me a while to solve) but I can barely beat Standard levels
