THE PLAYBOOK · H5-WEPOKER
Getting started with 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. Use the example below to understand a decision. Use the opening round to become familiar with the layout. 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.
Try a more deliberate round
Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart. Keep the objective visible.
What counts as success
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. Return to the instructions when a step is unclear.
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. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Make sure you are interacting with the game rather than the surrounding page.
Work through an example
A placed star rules out all eight neighbouring squares. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Take a moment to compare.
Where a round can go wrong
Different rows do not make diagonal neighbours legal. Check the rule before repeating the action. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
