What is "battleship"?

Battleship is a two-player board game where each player tries to sink the opponent’s ships by guessing their locations on a grid. Each player has a hidden grid where they place their ships, which vary in size. Players take turns calling out coordinates, such as A5 or D2, to attempt to hit the opponent’s ships. When a player hits a ship, they announce it, and the opponent marks the spot. The game continues until one player has sunk all of the opponent’s ships. The game relies on both strategy and luck.
