Destruction is the game

Ships in Ship Busters aren't health bars with a paint job. Every ship is a grid of destructible sections, and every one of them can be shot away.

Pound her hull to break the planking. Cut her masts down to cripple her. Or put a round into the red powder kegs amidships and let her own magazine finish the job.

Broken stays broken. There's no walking it back mid-fight, and when 90% of her structure is gone, she's gone. Down she goes.

Campaign

Forty-nine battles across seven seas. Battles one through six of a sea each drop a piece of its gear set, one for every slot, so finishing a sea assembles the full set. Battle seven is the sea's captain, holed up behind her guards: fight through the waves, then face her.

Hard difficulty unlocks after Normal, and Brutal after Hard. Every battle is graded in stars, and stars feed a mastery track that pays out silver, parts, and a capstone ship at the top.

Arena

One-on-one duels against a real captain. Open a room, share the 5-letter code, and whoever enters it is your opponent, whether they are across the world or across the couch: hot-seat on a single keyboard works too.

Duels are symmetric and stake-free. No loot changes hands and nothing is wagered, so the only thing on the line is pride, which is of course the heaviest cargo there is.

Dungeons

The Deep Holds are three charted holds of twenty stages each, and they are the only waters in the game where the Legendary sets are found.

A run is escorts first, then a boss. Bring a ship you trust: the Holds do not care how pretty she looked in the shipyard.

The Clam COMING SOON

Something enormous is stirring beneath the shallows. The Clam is a fleet boss, which means one target and every ship you can muster against it.

Bring everything you have. It won't be enough.

Fit your ship for war

Six gear slots, and parts running from humble 1★ salvage to 7★ terrors of the deep. Stars set a part's ceiling; levels raise it toward that ceiling, paid for in silver.

Hull PlatingMastSailGunRamKeel

Your fitted gun even decides who mans your stations. Build the ship, and the ship builds the crew. And the hulls themselves run from the starter Sloop all the way up to the Man-o'-War, with material tiers and reinforcement levels along the way.
