I tried to play the original battleships game with my young son, however he was horrified that someone was trying to sink his ships and simply refused to play. I created this new game to be more suitable for younger children (food theme, smaller board, silly rules). I created a custom set of rules for my game, however do whatever you want to make it your own.
This requires an AMS for best results. The print profile comprises multiple plates. I recommend adding/removing spools in the AMS for each plate to get the best looking food pieces. You should evaluate and change colors for each plate. Changing AMS spools per plate is faster than repainting the different food pieces, unless you have multiple AMSs combined.
The board has space for optional cylindrical magnets with diameter of 5mm and depth of 2mm that can be glued in place.
A wedge is included on the case-plate that can be placed in the recess in the back of the board to hold the top board up.
Layout: Prior to starting players lay out their food pieces on the board.
Gameplay:
Special Chili Pepper Rule:
The chili pepper is an optional piece, with special rules. As peppers turn up in unexpected places it can be placed adjacent to a piece of food. If a player bites a chili pepper, they lose a turn and are forced to make silly burning tongue sounds! You do not need to eat the chili to win the match, victory is determined by whichever player eats all the other player (non chili) food tokens.
Small parts are a choking hazard, not suitable for children 3 and under.
