War at Sea

War at Sea is a compilation of two submarine battle games for the BBC Micro.

Contains:

• The previously-released Blockade, where the player tries to sink vessels from a submarine perspective.
• Subhunt, where the player attempts to sink a submarine. In Subhunt, the player encounters four 8 x 8 grids representing the depths of 50, 100, 150, and 200 feet. The player has a limited number of depth charges, depending on difficulty level, to try to force the sub to sink or surface. The vessel is armed with an ASDIC, a form of sonar, that can scan in vertical or horizontal swaths at varying depths. The goal is to try to destroy the enemy submarine before running out of depth charges.
