Starlace: Star Battle

Starlace is a calm, addictive logic puzzle — you may know it as Star Battle, Two Not Touch, Queens, or Starstruck. If you've been hooked by a daily queens puzzle and wished you had more than one grid a day, this is your app.

THE RULE (there's only one)
Place stars so that every row, every column, and every outlined region has exactly the target number of stars — and no two stars touch, not even diagonally. That's it. Thirty seconds to learn, months of "one more puzzle".

A DAILY RITUAL
Every morning brings a fresh Daily Focus puzzle. Solve it, keep your streak alive, and get on with your day a little sharper than before. No pressure, no countdown clocks — just a quiet grid and your own pace.

900 HANDCRAFTED PUZZLES
• Gentle Logic — 100 relaxed 6×6 grids, perfect for learning the ropes
• Focused Mind — 400 balanced 8×8 challenges that reward real strategy
• Expert Strategist — 400 deep 10×10 grids for players who want the ultimate test

Every single puzzle is checked to have exactly one logical solution. You will never need to guess.

TOOLS THAT RESPECT YOUR BRAIN
• Hints that nudge you toward the next logical step instead of spoiling the answer
• Auto-place dots — mark eliminated cells automatically when you drop a star
• Unlimited undo, instant reset, and a timer that stays politely out of the way
• Gentle haptics that make placing a star feel just right

WHY PEOPLE LOVE THIS PUZZLE
Star Battle puzzles sit in a sweet spot between sudoku and minesweeper: pure deduction, zero arithmetic. Fans of nonograms, kakuro, binairo, and other grid logic puzzles tend to get very attached, very quickly. Whether you call it a star puzzle, a queens puzzle, two not touch, or starstruck — it's the same beautifully simple brain game, and this is the place to play it properly.

DESIGNED FOR CALM
A warm, paper-like board. Soft colours. No flashing banners between you and the grid. Starlace is built to feel closer to a well-made puzzle book than a slot machine.
