I enjoyed this a lot! It looks and feels good to play in the way it is presented. I would have expected, given its simplicity, that there would be some representation of the battleship board itself, rather than selecting from a list of pure text, but I understand the limitations of putting a game together in only four hours.
I liked Death and I wished there were more options to show respect to him rather than challenge him.
I did win the game, and I loved the message at the end where the character manages to give death itself pause to reflect.
