CLI Battleship game based on modified Head First Java book example.
This is the screen that you will see when you start the game:
Welcome to Battleships!
The goal is to sink all three battleships.
The fewer guesess, the better.
The ships are named:
1) cabista
2) hacqui
3) poniez
What is your guess:
Three battleships will be randomly placed on seven times seven greed. Battleships are three cells long. The columns are marked as numbers from 1 to 7 and rows as letters from a to g.
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| a | - | - | X | - | - | - | - |
| b | - | - | X | - | - | - | - |
| c | - | - | X | - | - | - | - |
| d | - | - | - | - | - | - | - |
| e | - | - | X | X | X | - | X |
| f | - | - | - | - | - | - | X |
| g | - | - | - | - | - | - | X |
Example from above:
- battleship one is a3, b3, c3
- battleship two is e3, e4, e5
- battleship three is e7, f7, g7
Battleship cells are consecutive, and can't overflow to another row or column.
Than you enter your guess, which is a letter from a to g plus number from 1 to 7. For example b6:
What is your guess: b6
If your guess is right and you have correct cell value, the ouptut will be
hit
if you guessed right all three battleship cells the output will be
You destroyed cabista.
if you missed, the output will be
miss
When you guessed all battleships cells (destroyed battleships), the output will be
You destroyed all battleships!
It took you 9 guesses.
Excellent sailor!
