My Great Great Uncle Rudolph Lapps invented the game. He was an engineer in Michigan and would travel home to Pennsylvania to see his sister and her two daughters Janice and Betty. When he would come visit he kept the girls busy by making up this game for them to play. It was until he shared this idea with a friend in hopes of marketing it that he ran with the idea to Milton Bradley Games. My uncle never received any money or contributions for his invention but we still have the original game in our family to this day! It was in the early 1900's.

Battleship still exists in its classic form and is easy to acquire a set at many toy outlets. There are talking versions of the game available but the official one built by Hasbro is no longer manufactured and is a collectable item. Electronic Battleship Advanced Mission is a modern and high-tech version of the game but it is considerably more expensive. I would warn against the Battleship released for the major games consoles as it is not the traditional game but a tie in to the film of the same name. There are however digital versions available for iOS and Android phones and tablets that are similar derivatives of the traditional battleship.
