ZK Battleship

The previous Battleship game version explored the implementation where all data, including the positions of players' ships, were openly stored on a blockchain - https://vara.network/ecosystem/battleship.

While this approach demonstrated the potential of decentralized gaming, it had a drawback: the ship positions were publicly accessible, undermining the strategic nature of the game.

The new version of the Battleship game integrates Zero-Knowledge Proofs (zk-SNARKs). With this technology, players' boards are stored locally, and no information about ship positions is transmitted to the network, ensuring both fairness and security in gameplay.
