Description:
Sea Battle Solitaire is a logic puzzle for the Palm OS, in which you are challenged to deduce the hidden navy deployment.
Instructions:
- The objective is to determine your enemy's navy deployment.
- A navy consists of
- 1x Battleship of length 4,
- 2x Cruiser of length 3,
- 3x Destroyer of length 2,
- 4x Submarine of length 1.
- Ships are arranged horizontally or vertically on the board.
- No two ships have squares which are adjacent to other ships, not even diagonally.
- Each line (either row or column) has two numbers placed after it. You can see these numbers down the right hand side, and along the bottom, of the board.
- The first number, in black, is the number of occupied squares in this line.
- The second number, in red or blue ( or grey ), is the number of occupied squares remaining to be found in that line.
- The red number turns to a blue zero when it's line is complete.
- Tap a square to cycle it between being unknown, sea or ship.
- On the right you will see a tally of the ships, which will be automatically crossed off as they are found.
- Good luck.

I loved this game on pencil and paper! Great software. I started looking for something like this when I found Nikolai puzzles made for palm. However, the helpfiles could be cleaned up a little, to clarify. They're great as refresher rules to someone who's played before, but not to someone who's new at it.
