BattleFleet is a pretty interesting composite of a game. It is one of those rare birds that is developed for the Mac and iPad. It mixes a top-down turn-based strategy game with naval vessels (Captain Obvious here to your rescue) and with a bit of Battlestations: Midway mixed in between. The idea and premise is a very good one, one that came out well, but there is always room for improvement. If there is a successor to this game there are plenty of things that could be added to the core gameplay to make this an extremely in-depth and time consuming experience. To me, what it does manage to do very well, is be a very nice time waster. Again not in a bad way, it just could not hold my attention for an extreme amount of time, mainly due to the fact that I feel like I had expended what the game had to offer within a night or two of playing it.
