Arcade simulator of military ships from the first half of the 20th century. Among them are real combat vessels, prototypes that existed only on blueprints, as well as fictional sea machines. Like in "World of Tanks," since 2022 the game has been developed by the "Lesta Games" studio independently from World of Warships.
Gameplay
Each player has a ship at their disposal. At the location of the combat mission, users unite into teams and engage in naval battles against live opponents or bots. Ship guns, deck aviation, and torpedoes are used as armament. During battles, coordinated actions of captains are desirable, as there are no universal ships; each has its own strengths and weaknesses. Victory is achieved by the total score of the team, which is awarded for destroying enemy vessels, capturing bases, and other activities.
In many modes, battles take place on randomly selected sea maps. However, the action of specific events, such as the evacuation of British forces from France in 1940, unfolds in specific locations that correspond to real geography.
Ships are divided by their type and the nations they belong to. With the experience points and money earned, players can upgrade by installing additional modules and unlock new naval units.
Like in "World of Tanks," resources are spent during battles, and if you take damage during the fight, you need to conduct repairs. It is possible to end up spending more resources in a battle than you earned.
Types of Ships
Combat vessels are categorized. Each type of ship has its own role during naval battles.
- Battleships. They have heavy armor and long-range armament, but their speed is low, making them vulnerable to submarine torpedoes;
- Cruisers. Their deck artillery is as powerful as that of battleships. However, they have higher speed and better maneuverability. But during naval battles, their weak defense should be taken into account. Cruisers are further divided into line cruisers, which are designed to confront other ships, and AA cruisers, which are aimed at destroying enemy aircraft;
- Aircraft Carriers. Slow ships with no serious protection that can launch entire squadrons of aircraft. They allow for reconnaissance and striking from great distances. The aircraft are divided into bombers, attack aircraft, and torpedo bombers. There are also fighters designed to combat enemy aviation;
- Destroyers. The fastest ships in the game. Many of them have smoke screens that allow them to move unnoticed by the enemy. But if you are detected, your chances of surviving during the shelling are low;
- Submarines. Another type of combat vessel aimed at stealthy strikes. They have no armor, and their armament is not very powerful, but they can fire from underwater. Detecting such a secretive hunter is not easy.
Among the presented countries are the Russian Empire and the USSR, Germany, the USA, Great Britain, Italy, France, Spain, and the Netherlands. There are also separate samples from Austria-Hungary, Poland, Canada, Argentina, and Australia within the common branches.
Game modes
- Random battle. The main type of game. A naval battle between two teams of 12 players each. They are assembled so that the basic forces of the warring sides are approximately equal;
- Cooperative battle. Battles of a team of live players against bots. It is possible to have computer opponents from users if a full squadron could not be gathered;
- Operations. A type of cooperative battle tied to specific historical events or holidays. Usually, it involves a clear task that is proposed to be completed;
- Ranked battle. Involves a series of battles within which players can grow in the local hierarchy and unlock access to unique rewards. Each new rank is harder to achieve than the previous one. This mode is available only to experienced players, and certain requirements must be met to access it;
- Ranked sprint. An analog of the previous competition, but with fewer ranks;
- Clan battle. Involves fights between participants from different clans. Winning them leads to promotion through leagues and unique prizes are awarded;
- Clan blitz. A variation of the previous mode, limited to one day;
- Training room. Allows you to conduct a battle with a computer opponent, which does not consume resources and does not affect your statistics. A good option for training or testing new tactics.
Premium accounts and other paid features
Although the game itself is free, you can purchase various containers for real money if you wish. Among them are both standard ones and those tied to holidays or collaborations. With these items, you can obtain unique ships, experience, money, temporary bonuses, access to a premium account, and slots in the port with a certain probability.
Similar to "World of Tanks," there are premium accounts here. Players using them receive 1.65 times more experience (both free and commander) and 1.5 times more credits. They can also choose three missions in campaign missions instead of two.
Premium status is granted to the account for a certain period. It can be obtained not only for real money but also for in-game doubloons. Additionally, access to "premium" is unlocked by completing combat tasks and daily missions, opening containers, and activating various codes. It can also be found in random sets and collections.
Doubloons are the equivalent of gold from "World of Tanks". They can be purchased for money or obtained in other ways:
- as a gift from other players;
- as a reward from developers for participating in promotions, contests, and tournaments;
- for achieving certain ranks during ranked battles;
- for completing tasks of specific campaigns;
- when opening certain containers;
- a bonus for using special cards;
- a reward for completing a series of combat tasks;
- daily rewards;
- various codes;
- the chance of a premium ship dropping from a container if you already have one.
In addition, the game features three types of battle passes. After purchasing one of them, special missions with unique rewards, including premium ships, become available. These include daily and weekly challenges, as well as various additional tasks. The most expensive subscription option provides bonuses such as free dismantling of modifications and increased experience gain, as well as automatic unlocking of several levels of the pass at once.
User modifications
Developers officially support mods and even offer a program called "Bridge". It allows for the automatic downloading and installation of modifications, enabling users to turn them on and off with the press of a button.
Collaborations
Periodically, the game authors hold joint promotions with other brands. For example, as part of the collaboration with the developers of "Russians vs. Lizards," asymmetric battles with ships covered in scales were proposed. From other games, we can highlight MiSide — thanks to it, among the captains of "World of Ships," Mita, Kepochka, and Mila appeared.
Thanks to the collaboration with the band "Aria," participants of this group appeared in the game as ship commanders, characteristic symbols as decorations, as well as a unique animated camouflage "Chimera" with flowing lava on the sides and fire in the smoke stacks.
There were also well-known hosts and bloggers. Among them, we should mention Bonuse and Gamover from the legendary game show "From the Propeller!", as well as Top from Utopia Show. The latter is associated with the appearance of the fictional ship "Top Secret."
During the collaboration with the "Mosfilm" studio, such captains as Trus, Balbes, and Byvaly, heroes from the film "Kin-dza-dza!" and the Uncatchable Avengers in full force appeared in the game. From cartoons, the Wolf and the Hare, as well as Kiberislav and Miloslava, arrived in "World of Ships."
Some collaborations add unique modes to the game. Among them, we can highlight the competition "Well, Just You Wait!", where you need to catch eggs with the hulls of ships. This is a clear reference to the pocket console "Electronika IM-02" with the wolf from the cartoon, which was an analog of the Game & Watch device from Nintendo.

Reviews and ratings
A great and very educational game. Thanks to its developers. In addition to the pleasure of the game, you learn a lot of interesting things about the history of the fleet. I think many teenagers will choose the Russian Navy as their future, and someone will become a back operator. Further success to the developers of the game.
Великолепная и очень познавательная игра. Спасибо её разработчикам. Помимо удовольствия от игры, узнаёшь много интересного из истории флота. Думаю из числа подростков многие выберут ВМС РФ как своё будущее, а кто то станет оператором бэк. Дальнейших успехов разработчикам игры.
