Your goal

- Respect fixed starter stars.

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.
A useful example
A placed star rules out all eight neighbouring squares. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Consider the next action carefully.
Watch out for this
Different rows do not make diagonal neighbours legal. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention.
