BATTLESHIP Hasbro Gaming: Battleship Classic Board Game Strategy Game Ages 7 and Up For 2 Players

Classic game, good way to spend time with your kids!

My kiddo is 7yo and can have a short attention span. I was wanting to get a game we could play that didn't involve cards and was a bit more mature then chutes and ladders. He ended up loving this game. It took us a few times of playing with me helping him for him to understand placing all of the pegs but he's got the hang now. We usually end up playing as a team against dad.The box for this set is super sturdy and will hold up for storage. But the pegs are not super tight in the holes and if the game gets aggressively bumped they tend to giggle loose a bit. Not a big deal but I don't remember having this issue as a kid.

Dude, it's Battleship... what's not to like? The little folding boxes that you use to actually play the game have room for enough pegs to play most games, so you don't need to take the whole box around with you if you need to save space. The little boxes don't come with the stickers on them and I would advise being super careful if you care how they look because those stickers do not come back off without a fight

I think this is a great game, on the target grid the pegs stay there firmly. There are extra pegs you can use if any pegs get lost. You can place your ships in 100 grid squares as well. Not all the pegs fit, but that's probably because there are spares. The game is fun overall and it is worth the buy. It does have some assembly required, but that is just popping ships out of some plastic and putting 1 sticker on each battle case. I personally love the game!

Well it's battleship. Its not electronic so there's not much to go wrong with it. The pegs didn't seem loose to me like I'd seen in other reviews. Two big improvements I can see is #1 the peg storage. The compartments that house the pegs just aren't quite big enough. I ended up putting the white pegs where the ships would go which isn't a big deal. #2 the letters and numbers on the upper and lower grid are incredibly hard to see. I fixed that with a strip of masking tape and wrote them on it in permanent marker. These adjustments took only a few minutes. In the end, it's a fun game. The pegs are sturdy and there are certainly plenty of them and they store inside the case along with the ships. We actually just finished playing a few rounds with the kids and when we were finished it was as simple as shutting the cases and putting them in the box. When you first get the game and open it, you will find inside the box the two cases, instructions for playing the game, a sticker sheet that has two "Battleship" stickers to put on the cases, a plastic grid that has the total of 10 ships (5 for each player) that you simply twist to take apart from the grid and a bag that contains all of the red and white pegs. You will need to split the pegs evenly between the two cases. After these initial steps you're ready to just open the cases to play and shut them to put them away. I gave this 4 stars just because of the minor adjustments, otherwise it's a great game.

Ok at first I was not very sure about it , but the price was attractiveI gave it a try !!and the trial was rewarding !!though 2 player game , we played as family , 2 teamsall have fun !!Kids loved it , wife adored it (and she is not very big fan of complex game) , that means it is very simple to learn , simple to play , highly replayable , and very amusing and attaching !!I read some negative comments about the Quality , but mine was OK , nothing to complain about

I purchased battleship for my 7 year old daughter.This was one of my favorite games growing up playing with my mom and brother, and had to bring it into our collection now that my daughter is getting older.Its definitely a newer version with the same concept, and I dont think improved.The pins and ships are always popping out if youre not careful on the bottom of the board. It is not sealed off which is a bummer. It always seems they never give enough white pins. However my 7 year old is obsessed and loves it.Its a great game for learning tactics, and graphs in a fun competitive way.,

All these reviews saying that it is too brittle and cheap and breaks easily are silly. The game is the same thing that I played when I was a young child. It is a very simple $12 game with no fancy mechanics, no electronic features, and no high-tech top of the line material. I was actually worried about ordering this because I wasn't sure if it would be the same thing I played when I was younger but it seems to me that it is. It plays the exact same way. Note that I'm a 90's baby and I am assuming that whatever version was made before the 90's was made differently, possibly without plastic? But we have always played and enjoyed this game that has been made with plastic and never experienced any breaking. It's a fun, fast and easy game to play.
