A small 6 × 6 grid, three ships, a game in minutes

Battleship Blitz online

Battleship Blitz is Battleship on a small grid. Six by six squares instead of ten, and three ships instead of five, so there are 36 squares to shoot at and fleets go down fast. On top of that each player gets ninety seconds for the whole game.

Lethal Card · Every game against a person counts toward your Lethal Card — one ELO for every game.

The smaller grid changes the game more than you would think: a random shot hits far more often, and there is neither room nor time for long systematic sweeps. Hesitate and you lose on the clock before you find the third ship.

How to play

  1. The grid is 6 × 6 and each player has three ships: three, two and two squares long.
  2. The server places both fleets at random, exactly as in classic Battleship.
  3. Players alternate single shots. A hit earns another shot, a miss passes the turn.
  4. The first player to sink the whole enemy fleet wins.
  5. Each player has ninety seconds for the entire game. Run out and you lose.

Strategy

  • Do not hunt for a system — shoot fast. On a small grid a second is worth more than the perfect square.
  • After a hit, try the neighbouring squares immediately. Ships lie in a line and every free shot counts.
  • The smallest ship covers two squares, so shooting every other square is enough. That sweeps the whole grid in eighteen shots.

Frequently asked

How does it differ from classic Battleship?

The grid and the fleet: 6 × 6 with three ships instead of 10 × 10 with five. The shooting rules are the same, the game just takes a fraction of the time — and you get ninety seconds for all of it.

What happens when my clock runs out?

The game ends and your opponent wins, even if they have fewer hits on the board. The clock is part of the game.

Does Blitz count towards my Lethal Card?

Yes, like every game against a person. Games against a bot count towards neither the card nor ELO.
