Getting started with Star Battle
Try Star Battle at your own pace and keep its objective in view. Place one star in each row, column and region, with no touching stars even diagonally. Look at what changes after your first action. Read the objective before making your first input. Use the example below to understand a decision.
Solve ten 6×6 puzzles with one star in every row, column and region. These boards use the one-star rule.
Practice with a purpose
After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again. Notice the feedback after each input.
What counts as success
Place one star in each row, column and region, with no touching stars even diagonally. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.
Follow these playing steps
- Tap to place a star, mark a cell or clear it.
- Respect fixed starter stars.
- Check rows, columns and coloured regions.
- Check puzzle verifies the final arrangement.
How to use the controls
Click or tap squares or graph edges. Number boards include a digit pad. Undo reverses the previous change; Check puzzle validates the solution. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.
Put the rules into context
A placed star rules out all eight neighbouring squares. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Take a moment to compare.
Keep this in mind
Different rows do not make diagonal neighbours legal. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention.
