Play Star Battle with the rules at hand

Start Star Battle by looking at the playing area and its controls. 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.

Something to practise

After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again. Keep the objective visible.

What you need to achieve

Place one star in each row, column and region, with no touching stars even diagonally. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.

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.

Choosing and moving on screen

Click or tap squares or graph edges. Number boards include a digit pad. Undo reverses the previous change; Check puzzle validates the solution. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.

See the idea in action

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.

Check this before moving on

Different rows do not make diagonal neighbours legal. Check the rule before repeating the action. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
