Sink the enemy fleet before it sinks yours. Salvo Ships is turn-based naval strategy for one player, two players sharing one device, or two friends anywhere through Game Center. PLAY YOUR WAY • Solo against the computer at three difficulties, from casual hunting to probability-driven targeting. • Campaign: 40 admirals across three books, each with a habit to read and three stars to earn. Finish a book to unlock its own fleet finish. • Pass and play on one iPhone or iPad. Private handoff screens keep each fleet hidden between turns. • Online with a friend through Game Center, live or turn by turn, invited directly or with a party code. • Send your friend the Admiral: animated emotes, any time in a Live battle or with your move By turns. Eight come free; the Admiral's Antics pack in the Store adds eight more. TWO WAYS TO FIGHT Classic is the traditional five-ship game. Task Force lets you build your own 17-square fleet from eight ship classes, and every ship brings an ability: Sonar, Airstrike, Torpedo, Bombardment, Volley, Spread, Barrage and Repair. Lose a ship and you lose its ability with it. Switch on Mega Battle for 27 squares a side. Add the Wolfpack, a ninth ship whose two boats can Submerge out of reach. Pick how a turn fires: a single shot, a streak that keeps going while you hit, a salvo of one shot per ship afloat, or a three-shot broadside. Fight on Open Sea or among the bays, reefs, atolls, fjords and sandbars of seven more charts, where land hides ships and stops torpedoes. Raise the periscope once a battle to look at a patch of enemy water. EVERY DAY, EVERY WEEK • The Daily Chart: one logic puzzle a day, the same for everyone. Find the hidden fleet from the counts, build a streak, and catch up on any chart you missed. • The Weekly Admiral's Challenge: everyone faces the same enemy fleet, with one attempt a week to sink it in the fewest shots. • 21 Game Center achievements, plus leaderboards for wins, streaks and fewest shots. LEARN AS YOU PLAY Guided lessons teach Classic and Task Force in a real battle. Against the computer, the optional Coach shades the squares most likely to hide a ship. WHEREVER YOU PLAY • Widgets for the Home Screen and Lock Screen show the games waiting on you, your Daily Chart streak and your Admiral's Challenge rank. • Play with a hardware keyboard, a trackpad or a game controller, menus included. • A notification when it's your move online, and a reminder before a Daily Chart streak runs out. • Unfinished battles save automatically. YOUR FLEET, YOUR STYLE Fleet finishes restyle your ships, the chart and the battle effects. They are cosmetic only and never change how a battle plays. The Store also sells the Wolfpack, an optional ship. Facing one in battle never needs a purchase. Built to read at a glance: hits and misses differ by shape as well as color. Supports light and dark appearance, Dynamic Type, Reduce Motion, and separate sound and haptic settings. Free to play. No ads. No loot boxes. No account needed for offline play.
