## About This Game

## How to Play
During your turn you can either move your ship or you can use one of your
weapons. The enemy ships (AI) will all then take their turn with the same two
options. In the next phase, if any weapons were used by the player or the
enemy in the previous phases they will be triggered/updated, for example
cannon balls moving or lasers firing. Where you place your weapons is also
important, so you can correctly align your weapon with an enemy! These core
gameplay mechanics are then built upon with new environmental objects, varying
enemies/weapons and much more in order to add layers of complexity towards the
end levels!
The movement in Anchor Up is a key part of the puzzle: your ship takes up two
tiles, the front of your ship and the back of your ship. This means that
thinking ahead is key to victory. When moving tiles, your boat rotates to face
the direction you just moved, careful manoeuvring and navigation is vital! If
you get a hit by a weapon or an enemy is in an adjacent tile (your ship being
boarded) you fail the level.
