    I love this game, but, I think Handmark needs to keep the users happy by making a REAL update. I just downloaded this copy, and its not v1.2! Its the old v1.01. I went over to Handmark's own site, downloaded what seems to be v1.2, but it turned out to be v1.07 instead! I really love to be able to play via Bluetooth; the original supports it, but it was not selectable. This is frustrating. Otherwise, I would have given them a 5 star. 2 star goes down the drain for their lack of versioning and support. :(

    Neat. But, for twenty bucks, I would want something more than a port of the electronic Battleship game I played years ago; enhanced sound and graphics, maybe some animation, something....
    Still, if it's a simple but good looking port you want, this is good.
