How to play Fleet Finder
Locate the hidden fleet from the number of ship squares in each row and column.

The rules
- Ships of different lengths are hidden in the water. The list below the grid shows them all.
- The number beside each row and under each column says how many of its squares hold part of a ship.
- Ships run straight across or down and never touch each other, not even diagonally. There is exactly one answer.
How to get started
- Start with rows or columns marked 0: every square there is empty water. Tap a square once to mark it empty.
- Tap a square twice to mark part of a ship. The squares diagonally next to any ship square are always empty.
- When a row's open squares exactly match the number still needed, they are all ship squares.
- Use the ship list: the longest ones fit in only a few places, so place them early.
- Ask the coach whenever you want a nudge.
A tip
Check rows and columns whose number is already used up: everything left in them is empty water.
