How to play Star Battle

Make Star Battle your next activity in the game library. 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. Make your first input carefully and watch the result. 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.

Make the controls familiar

Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart. Make the next step deliberately.

Your goal

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. Return to the instructions when a step is unclear.

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.

Controls

Click or tap squares or graph edges. Number boards include a digit pad. Undo reverses the previous change; Check puzzle validates the solution. Use the control method described here for this activity. Use one clear input at a time.

A useful example

A placed star rules out all eight neighbouring squares. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Check the stated objective.

Watch out for this

Different rows do not make diagonal neighbours legal. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
