Read before your next round of Star Battle

Take a moment with Star Battle before moving to another game. Place one star in each row, column and region, with no touching stars even diagonally. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. 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.

Give this approach a try

Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use. Use the example to check your reasoning.

What the game asks you to do

Place one star in each row, column and region, with no touching stars even diagonally. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Try to explain the aim in your own words.

Start here and follow along

  1. Tap to place a star, mark a cell or clear it.
  2. Respect fixed starter stars.
  3. Check rows, columns and coloured regions.
  4. Check puzzle verifies the final arrangement.

The controls to know

Click or tap squares or graph edges. Number boards include a digit pad. Undo reverses the previous change; Check puzzle validates the solution. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. A new-round button replaces the current round.

Learn from a sample situation

A placed star rules out all eight neighbouring squares. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Notice the change in the playing area.

A mistake to avoid

Different rows do not make diagonal neighbours legal. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules.
