The Battleship main game pays out for matching symbols along the active paylines, starting with the leftmost reel. Match up various officers or card symbols to win the amounts displayed in the paytable. The Wild Battleship symbols are stacked, making groups of them likely to appear at a time. Any wins featuring Wilds are boosted with a 2x multiplier.
Trigger the Victory Bonus by getting 3 scattered Bonus symbols anywhere on the reels. Once activated, you will be given the task of sinking the enemy ships. You will receive 5 missiles, plus 2, 3, or 4 more depending on the number of scatters that activated the bonus. Choose which ships to target, and then press Fire. Each hit will reveal a number of additional free spins, a multiplier, or an instant cash prize. Once all missiles are fired, your free spins will begin at the multiplier you won.

Battleship is a new game that I actually started playing not so long ago. It is pretty cool and the reason why I gave it a shot was because of a cool movie I watched a few weeks ago. The game is definitely interesting and can keep you entertained for a while. I had a couple of good line hits on it and over all enjoyed playing it. The wilds are stacked on the reels and you have a chance of covering all reels with wilds. I managed to get like three or four reels with some wilds and won over €20 on the 2 coin bet. But the stacked wilds can only produce an amazing pays in the free spins feature. Yes they could pay €50 on the smallest bet, but that can turn to €250 in the free spins. I noticed that you have more wilds coming out in free spins too, which makes it very tempting. So far I only managed to play free spins once and the bonus once. My personal favorite is the spins and I recommend to pick them, rather than bonus.
In my free spins on a bet of €0.50 I won around €40 and was pretty disappointed. I know it can do better and I'm sure I'll get a huge soon or later.
The bonus game is also pretty interesting and keeps you entertained for a while. If you manage to sink all of the boats with less than 8 shots then you get €160 on the smallest bet. I was nowhere near so only got €9 for €0.50 bet.
The graphics could have been a bit better and the pays could have been higher. The game also plays very bad on the smallest bet and you have to bet bigger to get it going. Over all a good game and I am still getting use to it. My rating 7 out of 10.
