About the game

Stained Glass Stars is a calm logic puzzle made of light and coloured glass. Each puzzle is a stained glass panel on an old workshop table, divided by lead lines into coloured regions. Place stars so that every row, column and region has the same number, and no two stars touch, not even diagonally; finish the panel and the whole window lights up.

Five difficulties grow from Easy 6×6 to Master 10×10 with two stars each. A hint shows the next logical step, highlights the squares that matter and explains why, from confined regions to groups of regions, and mistakes never end the game: there are no lives and no energy.

Every puzzle was checked by computer: exactly one solution, solvable with logic alone, and you can verify it on your phone. The Daily Puzzle gives everyone the same panel each day, with three daily missions, a streak to keep and tables and glass to collect. Colour-blind friendly patterns, no forced ads, no purchases.

How it plays

HOW TO PLAY

Every row, every column and every coloured region gets the same number of stars: one, or two on the biggest panels
Stars never touch, not even diagonally
Tap a square once for a dot (no star here), twice for a star, three times to clear it
Drag your finger to dot many squares at once; auto dots mark the squares around your stars for you

FIVE DIFFICULTIES, EASY TO MASTER

Easy 6×6, Medium 7×7, Hard 8×8, Expert 9×9 and Master 10×10 with two stars per row, column and region. Bigger panels need cleverer steps: confined regions, groups of regions and, at the very top, a short try-and-see. Thousands of puzzles at every level. If you know star battle puzzles, you will feel right at home.

HINTS THAT EXPLAIN

A hint shows the next logical step, highlights the squares that matter and explains why in plain words, so you learn as you play. Every puzzle comes with three free hints. Placed a wrong star? The hint finds it first.

NO GAME OVER

Mistakes never end the game and there are no lives or energy. A wrong star simply turns red (or stays hidden, if you prefer) and lowers your score a little. Undo is free and unlimited.

FAIR BY DESIGN

Every puzzle was checked by computer before it reached you: exactly one solution, solvable step by step with logic alone, no guessing. Tap "Verify" in "How is it fair?" and your phone counts the solutions again. The game never changes the difficulty behind your back.

THE DAILY PUZZLE

One panel for everyone each day: smallest on Monday, biggest on Saturday. Solve it to grow your streak, and solve it again for a better score.

COMFORTABLE FOR EVERY PLAYER
