Description

Torpedo is an educational game in which the player controls a submarine. On the ocean's surface ships appear which need to be shot. Fish and other marine animals swimming in the sea can block the shot. The submarine is moved back and forth by entering an amount to move. Negative numbers move the submarine back and positive move it forward. To reach the correct locations fractions need to be used. It can be played against the computer or with two players.
