About BattleTabs: PvP Ship Battle
Take the game everyone played as a kid. Give every ship a superpower. Now you're playing BattleTabs. A fast, tense 1v1 strategy duel: build a fleet, hunt down your opponent's, and sink it before they sink yours. The board is hidden, the abilities are deadly, and one good read can win the whole match. SO, WHAT'S IN YOUR FLEET? You bring four ships into battle — and there are 40+ to choose from, each a completely different tool: · The Coracle one-shots any ship — if you've already found the tile. · The Longboat keeps firing until it finally misses. · The Octopus tells you how far away the nearest enemy is hiding. · The Loyal Defender takes every hit meant for the rest of your fleet. · The Magic Mirror steals your opponent's last move and fires it back. · The Valkyrie strikes twice — and harder every time one of your own ships goes down. Mix, match, and find the combo that wins the way you want to win. THE BOARD IS HIDDEN. SO IS YOUR PLAN. Every shot is a guess you're trying to make less of a guess. Scout with sonar. Bluff your placements. Bait out their cooldowns, then punish the opening. The matches are short. The mind games aren't. QUICK TO LEARN. BRUTAL TO MASTER. A round takes a few minutes. Getting genuinely good takes a while. Climb the ranked ladder, where wins come from better reads — never better luck. YOU DON'T HAVE TO BATTLE ALONE. Join a clan and climb together. Drop into tournaments to prove you're the best in the field. Or go solo against the AI in Expedition — a PvE roguelike run where you push your fleet through encounter after encounter, upgrading as you go, with only three strikes to spare. KEY FEATURES · 40+ ships, each with a unique cooldown ability · Collect ships and build your fleets — think your strategy through · Unlock new ships and cosmetics (hats!) on the research tree · Skill-based ranked play — pure 1v1, no pay-to-win · Tournaments — compete for the top of the bracket · Clans — team up, climb, and represent · Expedition — a PvE roguelike against AI fleets · The Settlement — a home island for your pets, and visits between friends (Battle Club) · Two modes: Intense for fast duels, Casual to take your time · Cross-platform — your fleet follows you everywhere · Free to play 5M+ players have registered. Jump in on iPhone and iPad. JOIN THE COMMUNITY Talk tactics, report bugs, and help shape where the game goes next.
