Your guide to 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. Look at what changes after your first action. Read the objective before making your first input. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.
Solve ten 6×6 puzzles with one star in every row, column and region. These boards use the one-star rule.
Practice with a purpose
After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again. Make the next step deliberately.

Work through the instructions
- Tap to place a star, mark a cell or clear it.
- Respect fixed starter stars.
- Check rows, columns and coloured regions.

Controls
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. Use the visible help when you are unsure of the next input.
Work through an example
A placed star rules out all eight neighbouring squares. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Read the matching step again.
A mistake to avoid
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.
