Rules, controls and help for Star Battle
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. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Treat the first round as a chance to learn the controls. Look at what changes after your first action.
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
Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention. Make the next step deliberately.
The purpose of your moves
Place one star in each row, column and region, with no touching stars even diagonally. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Start with a deliberate move.
Making your moves
- 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 interact with the game
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. Use one clear input at a time.
Follow the example
A placed star rules out all eight neighbouring squares. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Check the stated objective.
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.
