Sinking Ships

Sinking Ships is a mini-game found in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker.

This mini-game is found on Windfall Island and hosted by the character Salvatore. It closely resembles the board game Battleship.

The objective of the game is to sink three different sized squid pods that are hidden on the 8x8 playing board with a maximum of 24 canons. For every wrong guess, an "X" appears on that space of the board and for every hit, an orange star-shaped mark appears. If the player is successful and wins the game by finding all three squid pods, Salvatore offers Link a Piece of Heart as his prize the first time. If Link plays again and beats the game using less than 20 canons, Salvatore will give Link a Treasure Chart with which another Piece of Heart can be obtained by following the the spot marked on the chart to Diamond Steppe Island. If Link beats the game a third time by beating his previous high score, another Treasure Chart can be won with which 200 Rupees can be found the same way by Star Island.
