Solve ten 6×6 puzzles with one star in every row, column and region. These boards use the one-star rule.
Build familiarity through play
After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again. Refer to the controls when needed.
Understand the aim
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.
From the start of a round
- 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 use the controls
Click or tap squares or graph edges. Number boards include a digit pad. Undo reverses the previous change; Check puzzle validates the solution. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Look at the feedback after the action.
See the idea in action
A placed star rules out all eight neighbouring squares. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Notice the change in the playing area.
Pay attention to this rule
Different rows do not make diagonal neighbours legal. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
