Well, after playing a bit of Naval Craft, here are a few things to know (note: I was playing on an iPhone 5S with iOS7, so not all of this might be true with other devices/OSs):

- It's kind of buggy. Not surprising since it was literally released yesterday. So far I've had a bug where after one battle against the first drill, all others were instant losses, and one where my steering wheel literally came unstuck and could be moved around (including off the screen entirely). The beams from spotlights are also kind of weird sometimes. Also, parts can be placed midair. They just spew fire and smoke and do nothing and float in the sky.

- The graphics are really nice compared to BSC/WSC. Not too much else to say on that; it just plain looks better in most aspects.

- It's really grindy. All the parts are obscenely expensive, and the drills don't give you much at all.

- Hydrodynamics/other physics work properly. They are a LOT better than in BSC. Consequently, ships also move at much more realistic speeds. Also, from what I can tell, it's possible to punch a hole in a ship's armor and then have it sink after a while from flooding.

- It's really intended for use on an iPad. It works, kind of, on an iPhone, but it's clearly not designed for that. The interface is all messed up and cluttered, and information panels appear mostly offscreen.
