Star Battle is a logic puzzle about placing stars. The grid is split into regions, and every row, every column and every region must hold the same number of stars: one on small grids, two on bigger ones. Stars can never touch, not even at a corner. It’s also called Two Not Touch. New to it? Start with the rules, which solve one of the game’s own puzzles step by step, or play a 6×6 right here.
