Kantai Collection, also known as KanColle, is a online browser game in which one assumes the role of an admiral, assembles a fleet of kanmusu («ship girl,» girls based on World War II era Japanese ships and submarines) and battles against
fleets of alien enemy warships.
Even the game's most memorable setpiece moments, like downing
fleets of enemy gunships from atop a speeding train or soaring on a gunship through
alien valleys, do little to spice up the boilerplate action and predictable level designs.
