Star Battle: rules and examples

Read the aim of Star Battle, then make your first move. Place one star in each row, column and region, with no touching stars even diagonally. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls. 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.

An idea for your next attempt

Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Keep the objective visible.

The challenge in front of you

Place one star in each row, column and region, with no touching stars even diagonally. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Check the rules when you are unsure.

Step by step

  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.

How your actions work

Click or tap squares or graph edges. Number boards include a digit pad. Undo reverses the previous change; Check puzzle validates the solution. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Use the visible help when you are unsure of the next input.

An example to follow

A placed star rules out all eight neighbouring squares. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Consider the next action carefully.

Check this before moving on

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.
