Game guide · CHENYANGDA
Understand the basics of Star Battle
Try Star Battle at your own pace and keep its objective in view. 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.
Something to practise
Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart. Refer to the controls when needed.
The goal to keep in mind
Place one star in each row, column and region, with no touching stars even diagonally. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Keep the controls in easy reach.
The order of play
- 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 the visible help when you are unsure of the next input.
One way to understand the rules
A placed star rules out all eight neighbouring squares. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Consider the next action carefully.
Keep this in mind
Different rows do not make diagonal neighbours legal. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round.
