ABSTRACT:
Game apparatus comprises a control and display console, and a board marked to represent a plurality of ship and submarine positions. The console provides game initiate elements providing a game initiate signal, display light, and player data input switches for input of signals by the player including challenge signals. The apparatus has a randomness source, data storage registers, and submarine data write circuitry responsive to the game initiate signal and to the randomness source for writing initial covert data into the data storage registers. The apparatus further has a range clue comparator responsive to the stored covert data and to the input data signals for outputting clue signals partially representative of the stored covert data for display on the display light, and a challenge comparator responsive to the stored covert data and to the player input signals including the challenge signals for outputting a challenge outcome indicating signal for display.
